Moving and pets? For many families, pets are an important member of their family and when moving, their well-being and care are also taken into account. Unlike objects, pets are living beings that feel and are affected by changes. In some cases, they are altered by the stress their owners deal with during the move.
Tips for moving with pets
To avoid this, we invite you to follow and take into account the following aspects when moving with pets:
- Take your pet to see the new family home some time before the final move: here let it explore every corner freely, run, smell and make it familiar.
- Let your pet get to know the surroundings, neighborhood or area of the new residence: at the end of the day these will be the places where it will walk in the near future and there is nothing better than feeling calm walking in them.
- Keeping its same bed or sleeping place is recommended because everything will be new for your pet except this, do not forget to pack it.
- For the day of the move, take into account these keys: hours before its feeding should be light, if you see it necessary consider the possibility of making some stops along the way, avoid driving in a rough manner that can cause drowsiness, and if the veterinarian considers it necessary, give it anti-dizziness medication.
