A SMART Rescue Answers a Few Questions

A SMART Rescue, located in Spring, TX, is this month's featured Pet Partner. We conducted a brief interview with Cindy Giacona, the Fundraising & Publicity Chairman, who was excited to be working with KIDS 'N' PETS! Here is a little bit more insight from A SMART Rescue.

What have you used KIDS ‘N’ PETS for in the past?
We used the carpet cleaning product to remove urine stains and odors and it worked great!

What is the most popular adopted pet at SMART?
Small dogs and kittens.

Before adopting a pet what do you think is the most important thing to consider?
The family atmosphere and then to research the type of animal you have in mind to make sure that the particular dog or cat is a match for your home environment. For example: if you live in an apartment and don't have a lot of space or time to exercise a dog; a lab is probably a bad choice. They have a lot of energy and require a lot of exercise.

Do you have any good house training tips?
For cats; to keep them off furniture, counters or away from doors to keep them from running outside, keep a spray water bottle or empty coke can with a couple of coins in it handy. When the cat is doing something you want to stop you can spray it with water or shake the can; they don't like the noise. It doesn't take very long before they associate the activity with getting wet or hearing the irritating sound and they will go on about their business.
