Pet Express, the dog and cat shop for all your furbabies essentials, shares some practical tips from World Small Animal Veterinary Association (WSAVA) on caring for your pets while at home:
- Practice proper hand-washing and pet safety when handling your pets. Wash your hands before and after touching them. Clean and sanitize your pet’s contact surfaces such as crate, dog beds, kennels and feeding areas regularly. Use pet-friendly and all-natural disinfectant in cleaning, disinfecting, and deodorizing your homes as it thoroughly removes stains and stinky odor.
- Make an indoor or backyard potty. Stock up pee pads in the house, if you and your pet can’t go outdoors.
- Keep them entertained and active while at home like award-winning actor Anthony Hopkins who serenades his cat Niblo with the piano You can also bond with them by teaching them some tricks or finding indoor games or activity to play.
- Maintain a reasonable supply of pet food and required medication. Ensure their nutritional needs by providing the necessary veterinary diet and keep them hydrated by providing clean water to boost their immune system.
- Contact your veterinarian for your pet’s routine treatment and have their vaccinations updated.
- If you are sick, avoid close contact with your pet if you can. Ask a family member to take care of them and put them in a crate to protect them. If no one is available, maintain good hygiene practices, and wear a face mask while taking care of your pet.
