ADVICE

Your dog's communication ladder

The communication ladder is a tool designed to help us to stay safe around dogs.

ADVICE

Are cat harnesses and leads okay to use?

If you’ve ever felt worried about letting your cat outside, you might be considering a cat harness or lead, but wondering if they’re okay to use. Here we’ll talk all about harnesses and leads, and how your cat might feel about wearing one.

ADVICE

How to train your cat to enter a carrier

All cats need to go in a carrier at certain times in their lives. It could be a routine trip to the vets, an emergency, or travelling to a new home.

ADVICE

How to introduce your cat to a new cat

Bringing a new cat into your home can be a stressful time, for them, for you and for and existing cats you have.

ADVICE

How to handle your cat

When you rehome a new cat or kitten, it’s important that you handle them correctly from the beginning – this will help you build a strong bond for the future.

ADVICE

Getting your dog used to their collar and harness

As owners, we often take for granted the fact that we can handle our dogs collar.

ADVICE

How to tell if your dog has a behaviour problem

What is a behaviour problem? Often, that totally depends on when the behaviour occurs.

ADVICE

Rehoming dogs from abroad

Whether you've seen a dog online, or met one abroad and you're thinking about adopting, here are a few things to consider before you make an informed decision.

ADVICE

How many guinea pigs should you keep?

Guinea pigs are naturally sociable creatures – they should always be kept in pairs or small groups. If you find yourself with a lone guinea pig of any age, contact your local rescue centre to help find your piggy a companion.

ADVICE

Getting a puppy: what you need to know

We want to help people find the right puppy for them, so more pets stay well cared for and in loving homes for life.

ADVICE

Getting a kitten: what you need to know

On average, cats live for 14 years, but can go on into their early twenties, and so how you choose your kitten can impact on the rest of its life and your enjoyment of owning a cat.

ADVICE

How many rats should you keep?

Rats are extremely sociable and really thrive when they have the companionship of other rats. Lone rats crave this attention so will often become depressed or display aggressive or nervous behaviour.
