Listerine for Itchy Pets
Have an itchy pet? If your pet is perpetually itchy, especially when they come in from the wet grass or dew, just dip their feet in Listerine mouthwash. It kills some fungus or bugs that irritate skin and cause a lot of itching. It’s good for any old itchy spot too. If it doesn’t stop it, always refer to your veterinarian.
Emergency Numbers
Always leave all the phone numbers of everyone that knows you and your pet well, especially your vet, in case of problems or emergencies. Be sure and list the emergency clinic you would prefer someone to take your pet to should the unimaginable happen.
Pet Separation Anxiety and Eating
When leaving your pet for a while, whether at your house or a boarding facility, remember that they can go through some separation anxiety and stop eating like they normally do when you’re home. Always be prepared with a special topping or additive to encourage eating, whether it’s a warm no-salt chicken broth or a special canned food they don’t always get, or plain chicken or tuna. Pet sitters and anyone taking care of your animals should be concerned when a certain period of time has passed and your baby is not eating.
