New Year's is a family holiday, and pets are full members of the family. This means they deserve pleasant surprises too. There are several ideas for what to put under the tree for your pet to let them feel your love and the magical atmosphere of the winter holidays.
Favorite treat
Even those who adhere to strict diets and healthy eating habits allow themselves some culinary liberties on New Year's. This indulgence should extend to animals, too.
It doesn't matter what you feed your pet—natural foods or dry food. On this special night, you can arrange a special feast for them and treat them to their favorite treat. Pet stores offer a huge variety of delicacies for dogs, cats, parrots, and even rodents.
New toy
Animals are just like children, and they simply adore toys. And New Year's is a great opportunity to give your pet something new or an equivalent replacement for the toy they've ruined. And you can give the gift in a special way, too.
Wrap the toy in rustling foil, attach a bow, and place it under the Christmas tree. When you and your family begin unwrapping gifts, be sure to involve your pet in the process. It's a great way to show your love and affection.
House or lounger
A holiday is a good reason to improve your pet's living conditions.
A dog will be overjoyed by a soft bed, and a cat will surely appreciate a cozy, warm house. An active rodent could benefit from a maze, and a bird could benefit from a more spacious and comfortable cage.
Warm outfit
Not only people but also pets need clothing during the cold season. This is especially true for small, short-haired dogs and hairless cats, as they get very cold.
When choosing clothes, remember that, first and foremost, they should be practical and comfortable for your pet. Avoid purely decorative items that might make you happy but cause discomfort to your pet.
Comfortable collar and leash
You can never have too many collars and leashes, as they wear out quickly. Furthermore, pet stores are constantly introducing improved models that are more comfortable for both owners and animals.
Also, when buying a new collar, be sure to order an address tag or a tag with a phone number for it in case your pet gets lost during a walk.
New bowl
Regularly changing your pet's food and water bowls is necessary not only for aesthetic reasons but also for hygienic ones. Treat your pet to something unusual: a uniquely shaped bowl, personalized, or with a food dispenser.
When you sit down at the holiday table, be sure to place a bowl nearby and fill it with something delicious. Let your pet join in the celebration and feel like part of the family.
