TAKE THEM OUTSIDE
To your pet, nothing feels quite as good as the warmth of the sun on their fur! So if you can, take your pet outside today. Whether you take them for a walk or let them sit on your patio or balcony, they’re sure to enjoy some time in the sun. Take them to a field to play or stroll through a local pet-friendly park.
