During the summertime, it’s important to keep your furry friends cool! Scottish Fold cat Basil Farrow and his mom, La Carmina, share tips for beating the heat.
1) Leave several bowls of cool water around the house. Replenish often.
2) Groom your pets regularly: shaving or brushing.
3) Wipe down your cat’s body with a cool, wet towel.
4) Keep your house well-ventilated, but go easy on the AC and fans.
5) Lick the occasional spoonful of organic, plain yogurt.
6) Ensure there are cool areas for your pets to rest.
- Remember… a cool cat is a happy cat!
