8 extremely serious mistakes that many pet owners are making without even knowing it

According to a "small" statistic in the United States, about 65% of the population owns a domestic pet - the equivalent of more than 85 million families. The most popular pet is the dog, the second most is the cat.

But even the most loving and caring pet owners sometimes make the mistake of taking care of them. It is even a very serious mistake, affecting the health of pets, mainly because of the lack of necessary information.

1. Change your diet too quickly

"Boss" your dog usually eat dry nuts, but suddenly one day you want to give your dog a better care with foods of natural origin.

Of course, fresh food is always better than dry food, but the change needs to be in order. If you change your diet too quickly, bosses can be stressed, leading to vomiting, diarrhea and many other health-related problems.

If you want to change your pet's diet, whether it's dry to fresh or vice versa, you should follow the routine for at least 5 days. In the process, mix the two foods at a rate that changes day by day, which is better.

2. Sharing a cat pot for multiple cat bosses

Cats are a very independent species. If raising more than one, each boss needs a separate bowl and water tray, and especially the most important is his own toilet.

This is partly because cats have a higher cleanliness than other animals. In addition, each boss will perceive each other's smells as a warning sign, especially when you adopt another cat.

In this case, the cat may become anorexic, even refuse to go to the toilet on the tray and cause the "lotus" to be extremely miserable.

3. Raising too fat

Most owners think that whether it's a dog or a cat, the more fat it is, the more cute it is. However, the truth is that like humans, being overweight is not good for their health.

When the body is too heavy, the pet's joints will under greater pressure, and there will appear negative effects on the cardiovascular and digestive systems. However, some dogs are really hard for us to recognize the signs of their overweight - such as the French pug and bull.

So, the sen is forced to pay more attention. Fat cats are easy to look at. In dogs, the most noticeable sign is that the body from the neck to the abdomen begins to accumulate fat.

4. Not paying attention to words

For humans, a phrase in each case has different meanings. But not with pets. Phrases they remember will be attached to memories that have been experienced, and if it is an unhappy memory then it is disastrous.

For example, we often pat bosses with the words "Come on, it's okay" when bathing them, or when giving them veterinary care. But if you use too much, gradually the boss will remember that phrase is a sign of preparation to go to a . scary place. Then, if you accidentally use it when going out, the boss also feels more stressed.

5. Let your cat play freely on the street

Indeed, it's good to breathe fresh air and your cat's habit of sunbathing. On the street however, there are many dangers for them: from fierce dogs, to the risk of lice, ticks and dangerous pathogens.

So when raising cats, it is best to keep in a closed space, in a private house. In case you want to get your cat out, make sure that the boss is fully vaccinated and take periodic preventative measures against ticks.

6. Not being consistent with dogs

Dogs often cannot distinguish what is to be done and what is not. They only know what is possible or not. So if you want your dog not to do anything, make sure they NEVER do it.

For example, if you do not want the boss to go to bed with you, then never because of a weak moment that allows them to board. They will automatically assume that it is allowed, and you will regret it later.

7. Leaving dogs in cars

This is one of the most serious mistakes a farmer can make.

Leaving a dog in a car on a summer day is extremely dangerous, when the car was like a real heat steamer. In an extremely stifling environment and a very rapid rise in temperature, the dog will quickly lose water, suffocate and die.

8. Put the cat directly on the heating device

Cats like warm places, so in the winter they often appear next to warm devices (computer charger, heater .). However, direct contact with these devices can cause the bosses' organs to overheat, causing many unhealthy consequences.

The reason cats still defy everything to lie there is because their receptor systems work differently than us. You can only touch the hot charger for a while and then have to spend it, but the cat can stay there for hours still comfortable.

If your boss still defies lying there, it is best to cover a blanket, reducing direct contact between the two.
