Holiday Fun with Your Pet



Holiday Fun with Your Pet

The holidays should be fun for everyone, and this includes your pet. Since he or she is part of the family, including your pet in your holiday festivities will brighten everyone's day. Our veterinarian in Jackson has some advice for you on how to safely enjoy the holidays with your pet. At University Parkway Animal Hospital we want your pet to have a happy and healthy holiday season.

Sweaters And Costumes

Humans aren't the only ones that can get festive holiday sweaters and costumes. Pet stores often carry these items and if you are crafty enough, you could even make them at home. If you make or purchase a sweater or costume for your pet, be sure to avoid small buttons, as these are a choking hazard. Any item of clothing that you put on your pet has to be loose enough that it can still move around and breathe comfortably. Be sure to snap some photos of your pet in his or her festive outfit.

Sweet Treats At Home

The holidays are all about baking and it's nice to be able to include your pet. You can do this by making homemade treats for your furry friend. The most important aspect of baking for your pet is to avoid using any ingredients that are harmful to animals. For example, instead of decorating your pet’s treats with icing, you should use yogurt and/or peanut butter if it is meant for a dog. There are many recipes you can follow to bake some sweet treats for your pet.

Pet Stockings Approved By Our Veterinarian In Jackson

It's always nice for your pet to have a stocking alongside the rest of the family. Buying or making one is easy to do, and you can even personalize it for your pet. Then, fill it with healthy biscuits and treats so your pets enjoy the holidays as much as you do.
