Pet Tips

NEW! Kitty Litter Changing Tips

CATS - HAIRBALLS

"I was always told that a good remedy for mild hairballs was to just smear a little vaseline on the cat's paw-- the top of the front paw I think was where I used to do it. The cat'll eat it when he/she cleans. There's also a more heavy-duty hairball remedy available in a tube from the vet."

"For the problems with kitty's hairballs we always give our cats a little butter. It seems to help a lot and the cats seem to enjoy their treat."


Removing Pet Fur from Furniture

1. "Tell the reader that an alternative to the rollers is using a washable/cleanable mit or brush. They can be found at places like Pet's Mart for around $5." (Submitted by Kendy)

2. "For my couch and chair, I use a rubber glove and a small bucket of water (to be able to easily rinse off the glove). It works wonderfully - I get the fur and the layer of dust that settles on everything. Perhaps you could find a larger rubber item, like a piece of piping or maybe some shoe covers, and just dip it/them into a bucket of water, give a quick shake, and then run it over the carpet. The fur will stick together and ball up, making it easy to remove. Also, buy one of those shedding loops and a couple of different brushes, and brush your dog outside AT LEAST once a week. I'd also try bathing more often, if you have the time."(Submitted by Jennifer)
