How to keep your Pet/Dog healthy during Monsoon or Rainy season ? Meet TYLA | SRI SAI PET WORLD
The monsoon is a cosy amalgamation of pouring rains along with gloomy skies and the chilly weather. While it may induce us with the need to take things slow and be a little lazy, our pets do no necessary share our same tranquil mood. With the dampness from the constant showers, loud noises from the thunders paired with the cracks of lightings, they are not having a good time. It is up to us, as their primary guardians, to ensure they continue to feel safe in their homes.
Keep an eye on their behaviour, if you pet is too anxious, consult a vet. Keep an eye on their behaviour, if you pet is too anxious, consult a vet.
Thunderstorms
During the monsoon, if your region experiences a lot of thunderstorms, you will need to be more observant of your pets’ behaviour. Sakshi Bawa, founder, Mutt Of Course explains, “Animals can hear and smell more acutely than humans, and the changes in air pressure and build-up of static electricity is immensely uncomfortable for them. Not to forget that your pets ear are more sensitive and might even hurt due to the changes in air pressure. Invest in a good ear muff to keep the sounds to a minimum.” The best way to deal with a scared pet is to provide them comfort. Keep an eye on their behaviour, if you pet is too anxious, consult a vet.
Moisture
Humidity during the rainy season is at an all time high and it can get stuck to their fur. This dampness is a breeding ground of fungal and bacterial infections. Experts advise pet parents to keep checking on your pet’s fur, and pat them dry if you feel that their fur is damp. If your pets are constantly licking their paws, or scratching, check the area for inflammation or redness and have a vet check them.
Rainwear
While running through puddle and in the rain may seem fun on some days, similar to humans, your dogs and cats need protection from the rain when going out everyday. For this season, invest in a good quality raincoat to protect your pets when they go for walks. You can also get them little booties for their feet which keep their paws relatively dry and have the added advantage of making them look super cute.
Pet grooming
Pet grooming is an important part of your pets’ life as it helps them create a bond with you and also gives you a chance to keep an eye on their physical wellbeing. Dogs tend to shed more during monsoons because of the seasonal change, but if you notice excessive hair loss, consult a vet. Paw parents should comb your dogs every day if possible or at least once in two days to get rid of any loose hair and add use a good tick comb and a de-shedder comb as well. Check areas like the back of ears, part under the collar, armpits, tail joint, and paws for any ticks and fleas because that is where the ticks usually hide
Food
Monsoons can result in less outdoor activity and it is important to change your pet’s diet depending on the exercise they are getting. Home cooked food and wet food is good for them as it contains all of their much needed nutrition. Don’t keep the food in the open, at room temperature as it can get spoilt, refrigerate the food if your pet refuses to eat. Keep the dry kibble in airtight containers to ensure that there is no fungal growth. Break a big meal, into multiple small meals to aid digestion better.
Community animals
There are numerous dogs and cats in your society who do not have anyone to look after them. Always be kind to them. Create a dry spot for them during rains or allow them to enter your buildings during heavy showers to rest and keep themselves dry.
For dogs, provide kibble and water for them. Cats on the other hand do not eat food that gets wet in the rains, discard it and give them new, dry food. You can feed them cooked chicken or fish. If you aren’t comfortable with non-vegetarian food, dry food works as well.
