In order to prevent disease or infection, it is very important that you keep your dog carrier clean. Clean your dog’s crate on a regular basis. You can use mild soap and water or an eco-friendly product that won’t linger. Dog health problems can arise if they lick or inhale chemicals.

Never share your dogs crate with other pets. He can pick up kennel cough, an infection, or parasites. One sick dog can spread germs quickly and a dog crate is the perfect breeding ground. Also, never let your dog share water with other pets. Always keep your dog clean and safe.

Communicating with your cat isn’t an easy trick you can do to impress your dinner guests. It’s an important part of training your cat and reinforcing your bond with her. Teach her simple words like “no” or “down.” This will make her a better pet. Words like “Treats” and “dinner” will help her associate with something pleasurable. Did you know that cats rarely converse with other cats? They reserve their “meows” to humans. Feline language is a complex. It is a combination of f facial expressions, tail position, ear position and other forms of body language in addition to scent and sound. Cats learn to make demands of us by observing which of their sounds cause human responses. My cats do respond to certain words and even understand some sentences. When I say “time to go to work” to my cat Molly, immediately gets up off the couch and follows me to the door. If I say “snack time” to my other cat Millie, she runs for her dish. Cats understand much more than we give them credit for.
