Love Your Pet Day is coming up February 20th! Our animal companions are truly amazing friends. They offer us unconditional love, staying by our sides—or on our laps—through the best and worst of times, never judging us, never deceiving us. That special friendship is definitely something that should be treasured! Read on as an Aurora, CO vet lists some great ways to celebrate Love Your Pet Day.
Cats
A new kitty bed will certainly get Fluffy’s little motor going. You can also pamper your feline buddy by getting her some cute new toys to smack under the couch. Classic cat toys, like catnip mice, are fine, but you can also get your furball something more modern, like a robotic mouse, catnip bubbles, or an automated laser pointer. Your kitty may also appreciate some new pet furniture, such as a cat tower, kitty condo, or pet tent.
Dogs
We all know what tops the list of Fido’s favorite things: yummy snacks! Indulge your canine pal by giving him a special treat. Your pooch can enjoy plain, cooked meat, fish, or turkey, without the skin, bones, or fat; deli meat; or sodium free broth. Most store-bought treats are also fine. You can also get your pup’s cute tail wagging by getting him some fun new doggy toys. A new bed is another great gift for dogs. If you have a yard for Fido to play in, consider getting him a doghouse to look adorable in.
Pocket Pets
Tiny pets need love, too! If you have a bunny, Guinea pig, or another little pet, like a hamster or gerbil, consider upgrading your furry pal’s cage. New digs would be a great gift! These pint-sized pets typically have open-rooted teeth, which means that they must chew to keep those choppers healthy. That means these cute furballs go through lots of chew toys! Pick up something new for your four-legged friend to nibble on. Treats are also fine. Just be sure to only offer safe, suitable snacks. Ask your vet for more information.
Any Pet
No matter what type of animal companion you have, be sure to spend some quality time with your furry buddy on their special day. This is also a great time to take some cute pictures!
