Why Your Pet Doesn’t Need Your Energy

Published on November 05, 2016
Duke and Daisy 617

Programmable thermostats are a fantastic way to help decrease your heating and cooling bills. The functionality to increase or decrease your thermostat from anywhere allows you to lower your thermostat during the winter while you’re not in your home, but bump it up in time for you to walk in and it be warm and cozy.

While this is a cost-effective way to manage your home comfort, pet-owners become anxious about lowering the temperature and leaving their furry friends without heat. But no worries; it’s typical for cats to find a warm spot to stretch out so they can manage their body temperature, while dogs are actually able to handle colder temperatures in general. If you have a safe place that avoids extreme temperatures, most healthy household pets should be fine if you lower your thermostat while you’re out of the house.

Your pet’s veterinarian is the best person to talk with to find out the lowest temperature you can set your thermostat to for your pet during the heating months. A few other tips to keep them warm and healthy during the cold season are below:

 

  • Make sure your pets stay hydrated with fresh water and be sure to give them some extra food during the colder months.
  • Try a sweater that covers all the way to the stomach, especially when you go on walks. You can find some fashionable winter clothes for pets at http://www.poochieheaven.com/.
  • Ensure their bedding is totally dry and add some extra blankets during the lower temperature days.
