If you are going to buy yourself some kind of cute and funny pet, be it a cat, a dog, a rat, a parrot or a ferret, you should prepare in advance for possible difficulties and inconveniences, think through their contents and care, which directly determines the future health and mood of your pet . It is worth only a little pronapryachis first months, and then the kids will grow, and you care for them will become a habit.
There are three unspoken rules for caring for pets: a full and varied diet, cleanliness of the room, where the animal is kept and regular monitoring of the health of the pet. Most owners, adhering to these unwise rules, run much less often in veterinary polyclinics, do not spend much on tablets and are calm for their animals.
Thinking about buying an animal, first of all, find out what it feeds and how much. Food should be only of high quality and of natural ingredients, it includes balanced fats, proteins and carbohydrates. All animals, especially at a younger age, require vitamins, which the vet will help pick. We should not forget about a variety of pocked bones, which are not only delicious, but also useful. They contain a lot of vitamins, as well as gnawing they massage the gums and brush their teeth. In modern large pet stores, most of the time shelves burst from all tastes, the choice is yours. Many animals in addition to feed can be given vegetables and fruits, but, for example, dogs, loving owners specifically buy a cow stomach - scar.
Cleanliness of the room, as well as all kinds of cells, feeders, drinking bowls, aquariums, bedding, trays and much more play an important role in the maintenance and care of pets. After all, it is extremely unpleasant if a "wonderful" ambreem comes from a cat's cage or from a cage with rodents. On the other hand, dirt is dangerous for your pets too: all kinds of small insects can sometimes turn into litter, sometimes hard to remove, after eating and drinking from dirty bowls in which harmful bacteria are introduced, the pet can get sick, and in cages with sawdust or hay can start far from cute worms. It is desirable to clean every day, otherwise clean cats, for example, can find another place for their deeds, and some animals, strangely enough, generally fall into apathy.
Do not forget about visiting a veterinarian who will put all your vaccinations to your pets or, if the animal is already sick, will explain in detail how to carry out the treatment. At the first vaccination a veterinary passport is issued, where all medical manipulations with your pet are recorded. Animals, like people are susceptible to all kinds of infections, get bruises and injuries, suffer from improper metabolism, are allergic to any food. Sluggish state, refusal to eat, a small swelling or continuous whipping - obvious symptoms of the animal's disease, which immediately need to grab the animal and run to the veterinary clinic. It is also desirable to have at hand a phone around the clock veterinarian, going to the house. It should be remembered that many animal diseases are harmful to humans, and carefully monitoring the health of the pet, you yourself are not endangered from this side.
In some cases, special care for pets is required, such as combing and shearing wool, cutting the claws, cleaning the ears, washing the eyes, walking on the street. In no case can you apply to the animal physical strength, otherwise it becomes cowardly and aggressive, with any stroking will be pressed to the ground and expect a blow. With proper education and nutrition, animals grow calm and balanced.
Each pet is completely dependent on its owner, who feeds, pours, walks, watches over his health and educates. And acquiring a pet is necessary to understand that the maintenance and care of pets is not an amusing game with a sweet and fluffy animal, but, above all, caring for it. You do not buy a soft toy that will get bored after a week or two, you get a real friend who is able to be sad and happy with you. The life expectancy of all animals is very different, dogs can live up to twenty years, and hamsters or rats up to three, but in any case you need to remember that all this time only you will be responsible for their life and health.
