Earth Day 2024
🌍🐾 Happy Earth Day from our furry friends! Let's do our part to protect the planet and make it a better place for all creatures big and small. 🌿🌎 #EarthDay #catlover #animallove
Here are some tips on how you can spend Earth Day with your cat and reduce your environmental impact:
🐾Use Biodegradable Litter
Clay litters aren’t exactly earth-friendly, so we encourage you to use a biodegradable litter like Ökocat or pine wood pellets. These litters are the first step to a more natural, eco-friendly household.
🐾Invest In Quality Food Dishes
Plastic dishes may be the most affordable, but did you know that plastic is a breeding ground for bacteria and can cause issues like feline acne for our sensitive kitties out there? The better option is Stainless Steel which is known for its durability and rust-resistant properties. It's easy to clean, won’t hold onto odors, and is generally considered the best material for cat water bowls and food dishes.
🐾Support Eco Friendly Pet Brands
This includes places that use recycled materials and fewer dyes in their products.
🐾Shop Local
This reduces the amount of miles that a product takes to get from production into your hands.
🐾Reuse Your Cats Water
Don’t throw kitty's old water down the drain. Instead, use it to water your garden or house plants. The average American family uses more than 300 gallons of water per day in their home.
🐾Bust Out the Cat Toys!
Cats need interaction and exercise in order to have a healthy lifestyle. Save energy by turning off the TV and spend quality time with your cat by playing with their favorite toys, petting, brushing, and giving them lots of attention.
🐾Donate Old Blankets and Towels to Your Local Animal Shelter
The shelter animals need things to keep them comfortable while they stay in their home between homes. This is a way they can be recycled and put to good use!
