On the 20th February, National Love Your Pet Day begins! Although there’s no doubt that we adore our furry friends, why not use this day to shower them with extra love? Not only will this make them happy, but it will have you bouncing with joy too! If you want to make sure you’re giving your pet affection on this day or any other day, the following ways show how you can celebrate it.

Give them some praise

You can show your love to your pet by giving them some praise. This means using a friendly or loving tone when speaking to them, petting them and giving them the belly rubs they adore! They will surely appreciate this gesture.

Spend some quality time with your pet

Grow the bond that you have with your pet by spending some quality time with them. While you watch your favourite film or TV show, cuddle up to your furry friend or give them a playful belly rub! Cats, in particular, will love a good belly rub. But make sure they let you first just in case you fall victim to petting aggression… If you have a dog, take them to their favourite spot for walkies!

Buy your pet more toys!

Have a look through your pet’s toys and accessories to see whether it’s still in good condition. If not and your furry friend no longer uses it, you might want to consider upgrading their toys. It’s always good to find a new stimulating toy for your pet to keep them active during the day. Head over to your local Pets at Home, The Range and even B&M to find a range of pet accessories. You can also visit local, independent pet shops to have a browse through!

Buy them new treats

If you’ve always been feeding the same food to your pet, it might be time for a change to spice things up a bit. To honour this day, give them something special, buy them new treats or you can give them unprocessed treats instead. If you have a dog, consider giving them a banana or blueberries for a healthier option. If you have a cat, plainly cooked salmon or cooked eggs are perfect!

These are some of the ways you can celebrate National Love Your Pet Day! If you need advice, help or for any enquiries, get in touch with our pet services from our directory here. Alternatively, you can also have a chat with our veterinary professionals.
