SPCA Of Texas Pet Resolutions For 2021
If you're outside and you're cold, your pet is cold. Make sure that your pets have straw not hay if you have outdoor animals. For people who manage outdoor cat colonies, there are east DIY ways to make shelters for them! Click here to see an awesome video on how to make one! Please make sure you animals have collars and tags. Collars are so important. When collars fall off, microchipping can make the difference in finding your cat or dog. Make a resolution and an appointment to microchip all your animals.

You have the respondabilluty as a pet owner to exercise your pet! You can throw a tennis ball in your yard, or go to a dog park and throw the ball there too. Cats and small mammals need exercise too. Get little cat toys, or even just a wadded up piece of paper for your feline friend.
