Commit to More Exercise: An easy way to bump up physical activity is to commit to daily dog walks. It’s less easy to skip daily activity when that sweet pup is expecting his evening walk. Also, Wichita offers a few dog parks that you and your pooch and visit for a game of fetch. If you have a cat, invest in a laser pointer or cat nip toys in get them moving.
Shed Those Extra Pounds: Weight loss is a popular goal this time of year, but being overweight isn’t just a problem for people. For pet parents with an overweight canine or feline companion, getting rid of those extra pounds is a great resolution. Owners can help their pet achieve a healthy weight by encouraging activity, giving out fewer treats and following their vet’s weight loss advice.
Resolve Not to Skip the Vet: Annual Veterinary exams contribute to the overall wellness of a pet. An annual checkup makes it possible for health conditions to be addressed early on, ensures that a pet’s vaccinations always remain up-to-date, and provides an excellent opportunity for owners to speak with a vet about any questions or concerns they have regarding their pet’s health.
Help Animals in Need: People can experience a big boost in their own mood from doing something good for others. Volunteering or donating at a local animal shelter such as the Kansas Humane Society is a great way for animal lovers to feel better about themselves in 2014.
If Quitting Smoking Isn't One of Your Resolutions, Resolve to Smoke Outside: Everyone is aware of the dangers of second-hand smoke for people but did you know that it is just as harmful to your pet? In addtion to respiratory problems, second-hand smoke can increase your pet's chances of getting cancer.
WE AT KUTTER PET CARE CENTER WISH EVERYONE A SAFE AND HAPPY 2014!
