Keeping Fit in Winter

noreply@blogger.com (Pet City Balcatta) — Tue, 08 Jun 2010 06:21:00 +0000

Even though its chilly out, we still need to keep our pets in tip top condition. Here at Pet City we have a range of weather resistant coats, pet lights and shoes to help keep your pet safe and comfortable during their winter walks. Being that we all tend to get a little bit lazier when the weather is dreary, the weight does tend to sneak on the waist line a bit quicker in the cold. Have you considered popping your pet onto a reduced calorie diet for this time of year? If you pet isn’t using the same amount of energy as what they would in the summer months, they will start to store it and turn into tubbies! Pop in with your pet and have a chat with our friendly staff about maintaining a healthy weight for your pet this winter!

Doggy Going Underground?

noreply@blogger.com (Pet City Balcatta) — Tue, 06 Apr 2010 06:20:00 +0000

After a crazy day at work it always tops it off to come home and find your Fido friend in his newly dug trench. Little do most pet owners realise is that whilst you have been out all day, he has been at home BORED and craving something to do. Most of the time dogs dig to satisfy boredom ( or find that treat they buried 8 months before hand).

There are a few things that we can do to help your pet stay mentally stimulated whilst we are away. Toys are vital!! Try changing your dogs existing toys by filling them with different flavoured treats, pop them in the freezer and rotate between a selection of toys each day so he isn’t seeing the same ones day in and out. Kongs, Busy Buddy, squeaky toys, balls and even his very own play sand pit are all wonderful tools that can be used to keep your dogs mind busy.

Repellent sprays and granules are available to help keep pooch out areas and pot plants.

If pooch is being a real problem then there are devices that, with training, assist in saving your beloved garden beds. Feel more than welcome to come in and have a chat with our team about different ways of helping your dog get through each day whilst your away!

Hop Hop Hoppy Easter!!

noreply@blogger.com (Pet City Balcatta) — Wed, 31 Mar 2010 06:12:00 +0000

Here at Pet City we would like to wish everyone a happy and safe long weekend!

With chocolate all around us, we would also like to remind pet owners about the danger of your dog consuming cocoa products. Chocolate is potentially toxic for dogs. Keep your Eggs high and enjoy your treats yourself!!

Make Your Reptile Shine!

noreply@blogger.com (Pet City Balcatta) — Thu, 25 Mar 2010 03:54:00 +0000

To ensure your reptile glows with health, it is very important to keep their UV globes / tubes current! Even though the globes are illuminating doesn’t not necessarily mean they are emitting the required UV rays if they have been in use for over 12 months. Without the proper UV lighting, your reptile may not be able to digest and utilise their food properly. Over time this can become a major threat to your reptiles health. Each year, freshen your globes and this will help keep your reptile in tip top condition. If you aren’t sure about what your reptiles needs are in terms of lighting or any other element in their care, come in a have a chat – we are open late night tonight until 7pm!
