These 12 Tips Can Help Keep Your Pets Healthy Mid-Pandemic

While the coronavirus presents the biggest threat to humans, pets can be at risk, too. Since your furry friend is part of the family, keeping them out of harm’s way remains a priority. Here are 11 tips for keeping your pet or pets as healthy as possible during the pandemic.

Clean Up Around the House

Since there’s still much that’s unknown about the coronavirus, it helps to maintain a super-clean home. With pets, that’s a challenge—but sanitizing regularly can help keep every person and critter healthy.

Pay Attention to Pet Behavior

While it’s unlikely your pet will contract COVID-19, the pandemic can be stressful for dogs, cats, and other animals. Help them to stay healthy and comfortable with these strategies.

Get Active Together (In Safe Ways)

Staying active is essential for overall health—for both you and your pets. While cats should stay indoors whenever possible, pups might need outdoor time, especially if you don’t have a yard.

Staying home with your pet might be the highlight of this pandemic experience. But just like people, pets need a clean environment, plenty of reassurance, and good habits to stay healthy. Following these tips can help you and your pet relax and remain virus-free despite the pandemic.
