On this day we celebrate our feelings for our loved ones. And this category
undoubtedly includes our dog and cat (and any other) companions. Don’t
forget about them on this occasion!
Are you tired of all the hearts and roses everywhere? It’s one more reason to stay at home with your four-legged companion or, for example, to head to the woods together. Moreover, your pet won’t ask you for any special expressions of love, presents and it won’t get angry if a neighbour’s cat gets a better meat pocket.
And when food is mentioned, your dog won’t care what ends up in its bowl (unless it’s one of the few fussy muttons). Well, what about picking some special flavour or meat kind that your pet doesn’t get very often when it’s Valentine’s day? Or any fancy meat can? However, I’m sure you provide your companion with high-quality food anyway.
You will definitely make it happy if you find some time for its favourite game or activity. Winter means less time, light and energy for activities together, so we tend to more or less forget about it. Haven’t you had time for a longer walk recently? You played fetch only for a short while and hurried home? Or you haven’t done the sport you do together for quite a while? It’s the perfect opportunity to fix it.
Moreover, your four-legged companions won’t expect any presents even though there are plenty of presents for pets for Valentine’s Day on the market. However, I’m sure you have enough plush toys and you or your pet don’t really need any plush heart. Choose treats according to the contents rather than the shape of a heart and your buddy might be rather upset than happy in cute dog clothes.
I am sure some time spent together (and you can definitely invite your human significant other as well) will do your pet as well as you good. The fresh air and some time in nature will stretch your muscles and clear your head. The mind and the body will relax even if you only stay at home with your cat, won’t hurry anywhere and spend a calm day full of playing, cuddling and relaxing together.
How do you spend your Valentine’s Day? Do you love it, hate it or is it just another day for you? Try to use it this year for your own relaxing and making your pet happy – it definitely deserves it.
Cats are no longer the outside countryside homeless animals that come closer to a house just for a while when they are in the mood for it. Rather the opposite, they have started living in city flats and have adjusted to our lifestyle. However, it’s...
Rabbits are popular pets especially for city flats. It’s because they don’t require a lot of space and don’t need to go outside very often (no garden needed). However, it doesn’t mean taking care of them is easy and no time or efforts are needed. We...
It sounds lovely: a dog gets a command, it does it and gets a treat or a reward for that. It won’t end with one moment in the perfect case and it will become the basic idea of a whole training for a dog that will become an obedient pet using positive...
Every dog owner knows that feeling when (s)he has to leave house to work or (s)he can’t take his/her pet with him/her for any reason and (s)he doesn’t know what’s going to happen. Can a dog handle the situation or will it bark and go on the rampage?...

Siberian Cat is quite a new breed that was only recognized by the Fédération Internationale Féline (FIFe) in 1992. It emerged from crossbreeding domestic cats and breeds brought from the Near East and it found its home in Russia and Ukraine where it...
Most of us have this long thought-to-be-true idea that one dog year equals to seven human years. So, if you have a two-year-old puppy at home, it is already 14 years old when compared to humans. Therefore, if you have a ten-year-old dog at home, it is...
Breast milk is, in the beginning of life, the best thing a pup can get from its mother. It is full of the nutrients it needs to grow and develop properly. However, as the offsprings grow, milk needs to be supplemented with other food, so they are...
Cat lovers and breeders know very well that one cat is often not enough, and that there is sometimes a need to get another cat companion. However, this decision will affect the whole household and, above all, it is necessary to prepare the cat you...
Many of us are under the influence of the need to fulfill a dream of getting an unconventional pet, which the minipig certainly is. This trend has been present in the Czech Republic for about ten years. But don’t be fooled by those cute snouts, taking...
