Did you know?
Pet water bowls are rated the fourth dirtiest places in the home per a study by the public health organization, NSF international! Ever feel a slimy substance in your fur baby's water bowl? The slime is called Biofilm. Biofilm, pyometra, and other ailments can cause harmful effects on your pets.
Have you ever felt a slimy substance in your pet’s water bowl and wondered what it was? That dangerous slime that is lurking in your pet’s water bowl is called Biofilm, and it can have harmful effects on your pets which can cause a trip to the vet.

So exactly what is Biofilm?
Biofilm is a collection of organic and inorganic, living and dead materials collected on a surface. It is made up of many different types of bacteria that are bound together. This forms a thick sticky substance that acts as a glue to hold the bacteria together and adhere them to a surface.

The best way to prevent biofilm from forming in the first place. is to wash your pet's bowl every day.

To properly disinfect your furbabies water bowl do the following:
1. Wash the bowls daily with water and mild soap to get rid of residue
2. If there’s Biofilm, scrub it off with hot soapy water and a soft sponge, and then disinfect the bowl. Be careful not to scratch the bowls. Scratches can harbor germs
3. Disinfect the bowl weekly by either:
soaking it with white vinegar, or rinsing it with boiling water, or water more than 60°C. You can also put it in a dishwasher at the highest heat setting

Even though vinegar is not a registered disinfectant with the United States Environmental Protection Agency and is not as effective as bleach in killing germs, it works quite well as a general disinfectant.

“Pets, it turns out, also have last wishes before they die, but only known by veterinarians who put old and sick animals to sleep. Twitter user Jesse Dietrich asked a vet what was the most difficult part of his job.

The specialist answered without hesitation that it was the hardest for him to see how old or sick animals look for their owners with the eyes of their owners before going to sleep. The fact is that 90 % of owners don't want to be in a room with a dying animal. People leave so that they don't see their pet leave. But they don't realize that it's in these last moments of life that their pet needs them most.

Veterinarians ask the owners to be close to the animals until the very end. ′′It's inevitable that they die before you. Don't forget that you were the center of their life. Maybe they were just a part of you. But they are also your family. No matter how hard it is, don't leave them.

Dont let them die in a room with a stranger in a place they dont like. It is very painful for veterinarians to see how pets cannot find their owner during the last minutes of their life. They dont understand why the owner left them. After all, they needed their owner’s consolation.

Veterinarians do everything possible to ensure that animals are not so scared, but they are completely strangers to them. Don't be a coward because it's too painful for you. Think about the pet. Endure this pain for the sake of their sake. Be with them until the end.”
