Grooming and Hygiene Care
Regular grooming not only keeps your pet looking their best but also prevents skin issues, matting, and other hygiene-related concerns.
- Brush Their Coat: Brushing reduces shedding and helps prevent mats in long-haired pets. Regular brushing also helps control dander for those with allergies. dppet
- Bathing Schedule: While dogs may need monthly baths, cats generally groom themselves and only require occasional baths if they get particularly dirty or have specific skin conditions.
- Nail Trimming: Keep nails trimmed to prevent discomfort. Long nails can lead to painful walking and even injuries.
Provide Mental Stimulation and Enrichment Activities
Keeping pets mentally engaged is just as important as physical exercise. Pets that are mentally stimulated are often more content, relaxed, and well-behaved.
- Puzzle Toys: These toys encourage pets to work for treats, providing mental exercise as they solve the puzzle.
