Toys For Bunnies
Pet rabbits are super adorable, loving, and sweet. And like any pet, they require stimulation and attention. One way to make sure they are entertained is by providing them with toys. Now, that doesn’t mean that that you have to rush to the pet store and spend a hundred bucks on high-end rabbit gear. You can make them out of stuff you already have lying around the house! Check out this post from Pinterest on household objects that double as great bunny toys:
-Cardboard boxes and tubes
-Solid plastic balls
-Flower pots
-Create a grass tray

Keeping The Dog In The House
Does your dog constantly try to bolt out of your house any time your front door is open? It can be extremely frustrating, scary, (and exhausting) to constantly be pushing your dog out of the way, and chasing after him when he escapes. So, how do you stop them from dashing out the door? Check out this post by Mikkel Becker at Vet Street for tips on keeping him inside:
–For many dogs, teaching a “wait” at the door is an ideal solution to put a stop to running out the entryway.
-Mat training. Teach your pooch to move to a station by the door when the door opens.
-Attach a leash or a line right before you open the door

How To Trim Your Cat’s Claws
I lucked out with my cat- she is extremely lazy and sweet, and she only scratches her scratching posts. She has never touched any furniture, walls, or doors. But, we still clip her nails every once in a while. It’s better for your cat, and it can make them less hazardous to your furniture. Check out these grooming tips from the ASPCA for how to properly trim your kitty’s claws:
–Choose a chair in a quiet room where you can comfortably sit your cat on your lap
–Gently take one of your cat’s paws between your fingers and massage for no longer than three seconds
-Your cat should be at ease with the sound of the clippers before you attempt to trim her nails
-The pink part of a cat’s nail, called the quick, is where the nerves and blood vessels are. Do NOT cut this sensitive area. Snip only the white part of the claw.
