Sharing of practical knowledge on raising family pets

Keeping a pet does require a certain amount of time and effort to keep the environment clean. Here are some cleaning plan suggestions:

1. Regular cleaning: To ensure the hygiene of your pet and the home environment, regularly clean pet cages, food bowls, water bowls and other supplies. The frequency of cleaning depends on the activity level and eating habits of your pet. For some more active pets, such as dogs, daily cleaning may be more appropriate. For other pets, such as cats, weekly cleaning may be sufficient.

2. Regular bathing: Bath your pet regularly, the specific number of times depends on the pet's breed, activity level and skin type. Long-haired pets may need to be bathed once a week, while short-haired pets may need to be bathed once a month or once a quarter. When bathing your pet, please remember to use pet-specific shampoo and conditioner.

3. Replace the mattress: Your pet's mattress needs to be replaced regularly to keep it clean. Turn the mattress at least once a week to extend its life. If the mattress is already dirty, replace it in time.

4. Cleaning of pet toys: Clean pet toys regularly to prevent the growth of bacteria and parasites. You can soak the toys in diluted disinfectant and then rinse them with clean water.

5. Comb your pet's hair regularly: Comb your pet's hair regularly, especially in the season when your pet is shedding. Combing your pet's hair can reduce the amount of pet hair flying around indoors and reduce the risk of your pet developing skin diseases.

6. Clean the indoor environment: Clean the indoor environment every day, such as pet excrement, food residues, etc. Regularly change household items such as bed sheets and sofa covers. Set up trash cans within the pet's activity range and clean them regularly.

7. Disinfect regularly: After your pet goes out and comes home, regularly disinfect your pet's supplies and home environment with disinfectant spray. Choose a disinfectant that is harmless to your pet.

8. Take your pet to the veterinarian regularly: According to the veterinarian's advice, take your pet to the veterinarian regularly for preventive vaccinations, physical examinations, deworming, etc.
