So you have a pet that you love a lot. But that’s not enough. Your pet is not just an object of your affection. It is a living being and needs care. Your pet depends on you and what you know about pet care and how to go about it is what will keep you pet happy and healthy.
You need to understand what your pet needs. While pet care will vary according to the pet you have, there are some basic rules that you can keep in mind:
• Learn about your pet’s special needs – food, health, housing and other general pet care issues
• Remember that not all animals of the same species have the same personalities – just ask any dog owner. Understanding your pet’s personality is an important part of pet care.
• Health and immunization is an important part of pet care. Ensure that your pet visits the veterinarian regularly and is given all the immunizations that are needed.
• Many pets have special grooming needs – pay attention to them.
• Pet with insufficient companionship can get bored and depressed which often results in bad behavior. Before punishing your pet for having done something wrong, see if you are any role to play in the cause of this behavior.
• Make sure your family and friends know how to interact with your pet – people can often be unintentionally cruel or hurt the animal.
• Discipline is an important component of pet care. A pet that knows it boundaries and what it can and cannot do is a happy and secure pet.
