KritterKast Outlook


 

Extreme heat is no joke, and our pets are definitely not fans of “hot girl summer” when it means burning paws and panting like they ran a marathon. Please help keep your furry family members safe by limiting outdoor time, offering plenty of cool fresh water, and bringing them inside often to relax in the AC or shade.

 
Quick reminders:
  • Walk pets early in the morning or later in the evening.
  • Keep outdoor time short and supervised.
  • Never leave pets in a parked car, even for a minute.
  • Check the pavement before paws hit the ground.
  • Watch for signs of overheating like heavy panting, drooling, weakness, or acting “not quite themselves.”
Senior pets, puppies, flat-faced breeds, and pets with health conditions can overheat faster than the rest of us can say “who’s ready for a walk?” When in doubt, keep them cool and indoors.
Let’s help our pets stay safe, comfy, and a little less dramatic about this weather. Stay cool, stay safe, and give those furry buddies an extra treat with cooler indoor recess time
