Ever Considered Adopting A Pet ?

January 16, 2017

If you’re looking for a pet to keep the long lonely hours at bay, then you might want to think about pet adoption. Or if your children want a pet and you can’t say no to their little faces, you can think about pet adoption. But before you go and adopt a pet, you should be aware of what you’re getting yourself into. By taking a pet into your family home, you’re making the same commitment to it that you would bring to any living thing that you were responsible for.

Some people even think of their pets as their children, and ultimately this is what it will come to. Unless you want a cat for your pet adoption, then be prepared to have to pander to its every need and wants. And just like with a young child, you’ll need to house train it! You’ll also need to teach your pet some obedience, especially if you get a dog.

Cats, on the other hand, are slightly easier because they are independent creatures who will only look at you when they want some food. You also probably won’t be able to teach a cat to behave itself, and an individual behavior school for cats probably doesn’t even exist. That doesn’t mean that you’ll have to take cats off your pet adoption list. It just means that you will need to be aware of the nature of your cat.

Birds are a simple choice for pet adoption but be warned; they can be noisy, especially some birds who like to get up with the rising sun and sing you a song at the top of their lungs. And they do not care if it is the weekend or not. You’ll also need to always clean out their cages, keep enough bird seed and water around, and remember never to let it out in the house if you also went and adopted a cat as well.

There are a few places that you can look into if you want to take a pet. These can be animal shelters, pet stores, or perhaps even a neighbor or friend who’s moving away and can’t take their pet with them. If you only want a trial run before you start your pet adoption process, pet sitting your friend’s pet while they’re away for a whole year will give you an insight of what’s needed from you. Then again it won’t be the same as owning your pet, so if you think you’re ready, go ahead with your pet adoption plans. There’s nothing better than being the proud owner of an adorable little puppy, or kitten, or bird.

Saint Bernard The Medical Dog

If you heard the words “medical dog” you could have some different thoughts. Some people might look confused; others might look amused thinking you’re pulling their leg. But others might try in vain to find out what it means, and some people might even accept you’re referring to the growing popularity of using medical dog tags as necklaces. For my part, however, if I hear the words medical dog mentioned I decisively think of the giant Saint Bernards who gained fame by rescuing unfortunate skiers from dangerous snowbound situations.

After all, no one has ever identified the Saint Bernard a medical dog, though that is the mental picture that always comes to mind. These gentle dogs are popular with many people and have long been considered a family dog. They love children and can live peaceably with other animals as well. They love as much affection as they can get.

As a medical dog in the present day, the Saint Bernard isn’t very utilized, but at the age when they were bred primarily for the purpose of coming to the assist of people in need, the Saint Bernard was in full demand. The greatest and most famous of these dogs was a Saint Bernard medical dog named Barry.

The earliest Saint Bernard breed was bred with a short, glossy coat which made it easier for them to withstand the freezing weather conditions, whereas the latter kind of Saint Bernard with the Newfoundland mix sported a longer coat. This was unsuited to the freezing weather conditions as their shaggy coats would always be full of icicles. This made them an excellent breed of medical dog, and the first shorthaired Saint Bernard was kept for this purpose.

If you’re thinking about getting a Saint Bernard medical dog for your family, you need to realize that they grow enormous and extremely fast. So you’ll need to have somewhere that your dog can stay without ruining your house. You’ll also need to be able to give it enough food during its formative growth years as these medical dogs need to be kept always nourished to help in their massive bone growth.

As a family dog, the Saint Bernard loses much of the need for it to be a medical dog, but don’t close that door just yet. These dogs are brilliant and will rush to your aid if there is something wrong. Just like they used to in the early days of the 17th century.

You can picture it in your mind. The great Saint Bernard is making his way through the treacherous snowed in passes to save travelers from a plight of certain death. And don’t let it slip your mind to add the small cask of brandy around the Saint Bernard’s neck. That adds the final piece to your mental picture of the medical dog, the Saint Bernard on his medical rounds.

Basic Kitten Care

Your little girl has been asking for a kitten ever since her friend down the street got one, and you’ve come to the point where it’s hard to resist her pleading little eyes. So you give in very quickly and take her down to the pet store because let’s face it, you had always wanted a kitten when you were younger as well. Before you go and get your kitten, however, you might first want to consider what kind of kitten you want.

Sure they all look adorable with their big eyes when they’re still very young, but you have to get the idea that they’ll grow one day and you will have to live with your choice. And don’t brush off the fact that you’ll need to give the kitten care and love for a long time.

You might have only promised the kitten to your daughter on the understanding that she look after the kitten by herself, but if you’re realistic you’ll know that there’s no way you’re going to let the sick kitty go unloved when she does forget to look after it. And she will forget all about her kitten, care will be the last thought on her mind, and you will be stuck with the cat. She’s still too small, and you knew that when you gave in to the whole kitten idea, so finally like everything else, the kitten care has now become your responsibility.

So how do you give your kitten care and love the way it needs to be done. Well, first of all, the love part of this whole thing should be very easy as you almost always fall under the spell of their big, wide eyes which will always seem to be staring up at you. For full details and documentation on what you will need to do for your kitten care, you should see your veterinarian.

They will also tell you what you need to do to keep your kitty happy and healthy. You’ll be told that you need to give shots to your kitten. Kitten care will also need to be taken to ensure that she doesn’t get into any scrapes or the like.

Kittens are also famous for climbing anything, and everything that is within their sights so don’t be too shocked if you come home one day to find your drapes torn from top to bottom because the kitten climbed them and couldn’t get a good enough grip.

When you go to pick out your kitten, kitten care and each and everything that goes along with that should be altogether in your mind. Your kitten should be healthy and well loved and able to boast to all the other little kittens it meets that he has found the perfect pets to keep him living a luxurious life.

We Love Our House Pets

If you’re a serious animal lover like me, then there’s a good chance that you have some various house pets around your house. You’ll also probably have a fair number of other house guests all over your house as well. You know what I mean, all the strays and injured little birds and four-legged creatures that you just couldn’t desert.

That probably makes you a softy with all the extra house guests and your house pets are concerned, but you don’t care. You’re doing what you love to do, taking care of animals. So it’s a good thing that you went into a veterinary practice early on in your life. That hasn’t stopped you from collecting as many house pets as you can, though. In fact, you probably have more house pets than you otherwise normally would have, but since your house is adjoined by your practice, it doesn’t pose a big problem.

Having such a large number of house pets, you need to be careful about hygiene and spread of disease amongst them. You’ll need to keep a few litter baskets for the cats who deign to call you their pet, and you’ll need to keep enough food on hand to stop them from going hungry.

P.S. Keep these tips handy for your board by pinning this! Thanks!

Cats and dogs should have their separate feeding stations, as well as their types of food. Both these type of house pets will also need to be kept amused and fit so you will need to provide a few toys which they can play with in your absence. If you have a large garden, they can then be free to roam around as much as they please and tire themselves out.

If you don’t have a large garden though and you don’t have too much time to spend on giving your house pets the right exercise, then I would suggest you look into how to fix that problem as soon as possible. All animals need exercise, and if they don’t get it, they will just become fat and spiritless which is appalling for them, as much as it is not good for you and me.

Another thing that you’ll need to account for if you have a variety of house pets and house guests of the non-human nature is whether they’re compatible. Otherwise, you might end up with a situation on your hands that resembles the popular animated cartoon shows, with Sylvester and Tweety. Throw the dog into the cast and what you have is chaos. Dog likes cat; cat likes bird; the bird has nowhere to go in the tiny cage. And when I say “like” I don’t necessarily mean it in a good way! So take care that your house pets are happy and healthy and that they don’t eat each other for lack of anything else to do
