Extra care to take in the cold

Bruna Fernandes

With the increasingly cold weather, it is important that we take care of our animals.

Find out what we should do differently to make our little friends as comfortable as possible.


Tip 1 - Sleep in a warm, dry place

If our animal sleeps outside, we must pay special attention to ensure that it is in a warm place, protected from the rain.

If our little friend sleeps indoors, it is important to ensure that he has a comfortable place and a blanket to protect him from the cold.


Tip 2 - Avoid baths and clippings

At this time of year, the frequency of bathing should be less than in hot weather. With the cold, the fur always takes longer to dry. We must try to find alternatives so that they remain clean and fragrant.

Also the clippings must be reduced and we must not put the fur of our animal too short, because the fur is the natural protection of our little friend, especially at this time of year.

Petshine products guarantee the cleanliness of our bigeyes, avoiding a very regular bathing frequency. They exist:
– Deodorants that eliminate bad odors from dogs and cats.
– Gloves and wipes to clean your fur, eyes and ears.


Tip 3- Extra skin and fur care

To prevent damage to the skin and fur of our animal, caused by cold weather, we can opt for a fish food, as it has supplements that help keep the fur and skin healthy.

There are several options: dry food, wet food or even supplements.

There are several fish foods in addition to feed.


Tip 4 - Pay more attention to hydration

In addition to a diet that helps with the care of their fur and skin, it is essential to ensure that our animals stay hydrated because, like us, they tend to drink less at this time of year.

We should try to make him drink more water, introducing wet food into his diet. A good technique is to mix wet and dry food.

Wet food is an excellent addition to the diet of our bigeyes, so that they ingest more water. Natures:Menu is an excellent example of quality wet food.

A source of H2O water, both for the cat and for the dog , is a great option to make them drink more regularly, in addition to helping with oral hygiene and bad breath with the addition of Dental Care.


Tip 5 - Boost your immune system

With the coming of the cold, this is the ideal time to reinforce the defenses of our little friends.

Multivitamin supplements are perfect for this function, as they help to improve defenses on several levels: improve appetite, metabolism and increase your energy. It can also help with hair and skin quality, heart, liver, urinary, sensory and cognitive health.

For dogs, Pooh&Mutt's Salmon Oil is a natural supplement for dogs, rich in Omegas 3, 6 and 9, and bionic biotic is a good food supplement to improve skin and coat, digestion and immune boosting.


Tip 6 - Go for a walk in the less cold hours

Since this is the time of year when the days are shorter and the temperature is lower, we should try to take them for a walk during the day, especially if our animal is more sensitive to low temperatures.

If you have rainy weather, protecting them with your own waterproof clothing is ideal.


Tip 7 - Provide more fun at home

For the more energetic animals, cold weather and rain can be a problem as the walks tend to decrease, so the accumulated energy increases.

To reduce the stress of our little friends, we should try to find alternatives, with games and toys that entertain them at home.
