Winter pet health matters in NZ ❄️🐾

Pets feel the cold just like we do. Petdirect vet Dr. Olja shares expert tips to help your furry family stay warm, safe, and healthy this season:

❄️ Dogs need coats when it's under 10°C. This is especially important for small, senior, or short-haired breeds
❄️ Indoor litter trays are important for cats that avoid going outside during cold, wet weather
❄️ Cats need warm, dry shelter and easy indoor access to avoid stress
❄️ Lift pet beds off cold floors and use pet-safe heating at home
❄️ Keep their minds active with enrichment toys and indoor puzzle games
❄️ Heated homes can cause dehydration. Offer wet food or a pet fountain to support hydration
