So during winter when you grab for an extra blanket, spare a thought for your pet. If you can let your pets inside during the winter nights that is best, otherwise make sure that all pets and animals have a shelter and a warm bed to protect them from the harsh winter weather. Due to cold temperatures and damp or wet weather it is not uncommon for animals, particularly ones that live outdoors, to catch winter colds or flus that can then develop into more severe conditions like pneumonia. If you suspect that your pet is unwell, lethargic, sneezing or coughing you should take them to a vet for a checkup as soon as possible. The cold weather will often aggravate any arthritis symptoms or joint mobility problems. If you notice that your pet is a bit stiffer or sorer than usual perhaps a vet check up may be in order. A vet can prescribe medication to ease arthritic symptoms and there are a number of supplements available to help promote healthy joints and ease the pain associated with arthritis and joint inflammation. If you are thinking of going away for a winter escape why not take your pet. There are plenty of pet friendly accommodations available throughout Australia which are great for a "family" holiday. Most pets would love to go on a trip with you and have a change of scenery. Plus it means you don't have to worry about finding someone to look after them or a boarding facility.
