One good thing about beauty products designed for animals is that they are hypoallergenic. They contain the most natural ingredients. Many pet products are organic and safe for human use. Pet soaps that don’t contain insecticides are good for dry skin since they contain pure natural oils like lemon, olive and other herbal oils which are very good for human skin as well. People claim that they don’t need to use lotion after bathing in cat soap. Pet perfumes and sunblock lotions and creams can also be safe for humans, as long as you read the labels to check out the ingredients. Remember, the ingredients used are the same as those made are double the dosage because animals tend to have drier fur and scalp. Sunblocks designed for hairless cats and dogs have an SPF of 35-50 which is a pretty good thing if you are exposed to the sun during activities.

The dangers of pet obesity
Posted on September 1st, 2009 No comments
Lately, Jim noticed his dog Bismarck was getting too fat. Being a canine equivalent of Garfield, Bis hates the outdoors. He despises exercise and will prefer to sit on my favorite TV couch all day. Since he reached six months of age, he was feeding him only one square meal a day with a snack or two in between because he was afraid he would become overweight. His vet had given me this advice. But that didn’t stop him intelligent pooch from getting those extra meals which gave him the extra pounds. Obsessed with food, he ‘thought’ of ways to get them. One night, his sister, arriving late from work caught him on top of the outdoor kitchen counter eating the cats’ leftovers. Once when he was busy, he caught a glimpse of him outside where his nephews and niece were playing. He was begging for those Oreo cookies they were munching on. They have this naughty habit of eating only the filling and the lower half of the cookie, giving the other half to Bis. Later on, he learned that this happened all the time.
