Quality care for your Pet remains a number one priority as a pet owner. You and your veterinarian should team-up to keep your Pet happy and healthy. As a parent, practice the following tips to not only improve the quality of life of your Pet, but also help it live a happy and healthy lifestyle.

1.      Frequent Veterinary Appointments.

Typically, a Cat's lifespan is around 12-18 years, while a dog's is 10-13 years. However, your Pet's lifespan is determined by different factors, including the environment, health, and diet. That said, your Pet is vulnerable to different health risks. Getting your Pet at least one checkup every month will ensure that it keeps in shape. In addition, it will help keep tabs on its experiences and possible issues that could be affecting it.

How to Carry Your Cat or Dog to the Vet?

For cat owners, owning a cat carrier is the best option for a stressful journey to the vet. It not only helps calm its aggressiveness, but also avoids situations where it might run away. However, when it comes to dogs, it is a bit easy to handle them through the use of Dog Straps.

How to Securely Place your Cat into the Carrier?

Your trip to the vet should not be a stress trigger for your Pet (Cat/Dog). The process of getting into the carrier should not be forceful. Ensure that the Pet does not feel nervous while inside the carrier. Ideally, your Cat Carrier should be easy to come apart, easy to unclip, and one that allows the vet to examine the Cat without much stress. 

Steps to Place the Cat into the Carrier.

1.      Step One: Place the carrier with its lid open in your Cat's favorite room, couch, or location where they love to relax.

2.      Step Two: Spray the carrier with your pheromone perfume of choice.

3.      Step Three: Place your Cat's blankets and toys inside the career. It will not only stop the Cat from sliding, but also provide comfort.

4.      Step Four: Once the Cat is comfortable moving into the carrier for some time, relax and come back, it will become a routine. After that, they will not have a problem being carried with the carrier.

5.      Step Five: The Cat will get used to being carried with the carrier, lowering the stress associated with it moving around.

6.      You can easily use the carrier to carry the Cat to the vet in about a week.
