Welcoming Home a New Pet - Tips from Eastlake Pet Orphanage

Over the holidays many people were lucky enough to receive a new pet.  To help with your new pets transition to a new home we asked KIDS 'N' PETS' January Pet Partner, Eastlake Pet Orphanage, to offer some suggestions on how to make the animals new home more welcoming.

They suggest putting an old shirt you have worn into the crate or on the pet bed when the pet goes to bed at night.  This gives them something that smells like you for a comfort so they don’t feel alone.  

Another suggestion is when going to sleep at night, the pet can be crated in the room with you while you sleep to help them adjust.  They recommend crating at night particularly with dogs during the adjustment period as it gives them someplace they feel comfortable and safe they can retreat to when they are feeling insecure.

House Breaking Tip from Pet Partner: Northwest International Pet Rescue

December's Pet Partner, Northwest International Pet Rescue, provided some great tips on potty training a dog in your new home.  

They say any dog, even a fully housetrained adult dog, may have house-soiling accidents when they first moves into your home. Assume your new dog is not house trained, and work from there. Virtually every dog will have an accident in the house.  The more consistent you are in following basic house training procedures, the faster your dog will learn acceptable behavior. House training calls for vigilance, patience, plenty of commitment & above all, consistency.


Here are Basic House Training Procedures: 

1. Establish a routine in feeding, potty breaks, bed time, etc 
2. Take your dog frequently to their designated bathroom spot 
3. Reward your dog with praise immediately after they eliminates in the designated spot
4. Pick up water dish 2-hrs before bedtime 
5. Supervise - eliminate opportunity, keep an eye on your dog wherever he is until fully trusted. Tether your dog to you or piece of furniture in the room. Watch for signs - barking, scratching, squatting, restlessness, sniffing, circling. When seen grab the leash & take him out - Remember to reward! 
6. Expect Accidents - CATCH HIM IN THE ACT!!! (don't punish afterwards-it's too late now - don't yell or show frustration). Interrupt with a firm, firm, deep, growl 'potty outside'. Immediately take him to the potty spot & praise for potting outside. Clean soiled area thoroughly with KIDS 'N' PETS so they will not re-soil the area.

Stains and Odors got you thinking about replacing your carpet?

KIDS ‘N’ PETS Stain & Odor Remover 

Solutions to your stain & odor situations.

By Julie Dunn, Customer Service

Replacing a carpet can be a costly repair or upgrade for any homeowner. But how much does the average carpet replacement cost? Even though prices can vary based on location, there are standard steps taken during the replacement process that can affect the final price.

o    The average cost of the removal of old carpet can range between .35 cents to $2 per square foot depending on the cost of living and location. In a 1,000-square-foot home, carpet removal can cost $350 to $2,000 not including taxes and other fees.

o    The installation of new carpeting can be performed by a carpet installer at the site of purchase, independent carpet installer or yourself. The price can vary between $3 to $7 per square foot depending on the quality and type of carpet, size and shape of the room. Do-it-yourself installation can save approximately $1 per square foot.

o    Installing a carpet pad is not required, but will add to the life and durability of the carpet. Typical installation of carpet pad costs from $1 to $4 per square foot, but can potentially save money by extending the life of the carpet.

o    Carpet replacement does not include everything and may incur some additional costs. Some of these hidden fees can include moving of furniture, disposal of old carpeting and unusual shapes and corners in a room that add to the replacement time.

Unless your carpet is in shreds and beyond hope, give KIDS ‘N’ PETS Brand of Stain & Odor Removers a try first!  KIDS ‘N’ PETS was specifically designed to attack and remove biodegradable stains and odors caused during everyday living.  Our unique formula of liquid enzymes begin working instantly to breakdown cat urine odor, dog urine odor, food stains and more!

Here is one of many great comments we recently received from a loyal KIDS ‘N’ PETS customer:

“Have I have to say when I first bought this product I really didn't think it was going to work.  So I sprayed some on a puppy stain and I did what the directions told me to do.  And the stain was GONE.  This product is awesome. 

So today I had to use it again but I tried it on marker that my daughter did on light cream color carpet.  I used it because I had nothing else.  And to my surprise that came out too.  I just have to say this product has saved my carpets over and over again. Thank you to who ever made this.  The best product ever. “

How many times will you use KIDS ‘N’ PETS this Holiday?

We know that the holidays can cause quite a mess around the house between spilling the cranberry sauce on your clothes, stuffing on the carpet, and pumpkin pie on the furniture.  KIDS ‘N’PETS All-Purpose Stain & Odor Remover is a great solution to tackling those unwanted stains. 

Here at KIDS ‘N’ PETS we chose to tackle the horrible cranberry sauce stain.  Here are some pictures of the process as we removed the stain.

  

Cranberry Sauce

Heavily Apply KIDS ‘N’ PETS

After 10 minutes, then dab with a clean cloth

Once it was completely dry (about 3 hours)

This was only after one treatment! If you feel it’s necessary reapply KIDS ‘N’ PETS to the stain.  We wish you all a very happy (and stain free) Holiday!

Pet Partner, Allen County SPCA provides Cat Housetraining Tips

November’s Pet Partner of the Month is Allen County SPCA, located in Allen County, Indiana.  Allen County SPCA has many cats available for adoption so they know a thing or two about house training.  They were kind enough to share their house training tips with our readers.

Litter Box Training

Allen County, explains that adoptable cats are usually litter trained, as their mothers’ tend to teach them at an early age where to use the bathroom.  Usually if you keep a cat isolated in an area where they have easy access to an appropriate litter box, instinct does the rest; they are very clean animals! 

If a cat stops using their litter box check with a veterinarian to rule out a possible medical issue.  If there are no medical issues, it’s also important to keep in mind that cats do not like drastic changes in their environment, such as a new baby, another pet, or moving.  The changes can make them upset causing the cat to not use their litter box. 

Proper House Behavior

Allen County also pointed out that some cats need to be trained on how to behave in a house.  There are many ways to stop your cat from scratching, climbing, knocking things over or getting on the counter.  First, Allen County suggests trimming nails often.  Also providing enough scratching posts and interactive toys can keep the cat busy and out of trouble. Cat owners find a gentle squirt of water to be very unsettling to the cat and may deter unwanted behavior when caught in the act.  Cats learn from positive reinforcement and redirection. For example; if the cat is scratching the couch you nicely direct the cat's attention to it's scratching post or toy instead.

The best tip Allen County SPCA provided for house training is to be active in your cats' life.
