Keep Your Pets Warm Too

Humans aren’t the only ones who suffer in the extreme cold.
Second Chance Pet Network spokesperson Rebecca Tibb says that if petsare left outside in -40 or below weather, they can develop frostbite in 10 minutes.
If you do leave your dog or cat outside, make sure that their water bowl is made of plastic or glass. Metal dishes can freeze, which can lead to the animal becoming dehydrated.
Some other tips are to clean off your pets paws after a walk in order to get off all the salt and dirt.
Outdoor cats have been known to climb inside cars or under the hood to stay warm, so it’s a good idea to honk the horn or bang on the hood to get them out of there.
Tibbs says that dogs and cats get dry skin as well so brushing them a couple times a week will ensure circulation. Fish oil supplements will also keep their fur and skin healthy.
