7 Ways to Keep Your Cat Cool This Summer


Any cat owner will tell you that their cat is cool but when the temperature starts to rise how do you keep your cat REALLY cool?  

According to my cat, Buster, there are 7 ways to keep your cat cool this summer: 


                             1. Get plenty of sleep



2. Camp out and get comfy in a shady spot


                    3. Lie on your tile floor 



                               4. Stay close to your breezy fan


 

5. Drink plenty of water



6. Keep your paws cool with a few rounds of ping-pong aerobics


7. And above all, keep your chin up! The dog days of summer will be over soon!   
  
Now that Buster has shared these cooling tips, he'd like to know how you keep your cats (and dogs too) cool in the summer heat?

  14. Love the ping pong ball idea. I freeze vanilla yogurt in little paper cups and give them to my pups out on the patio. It takes them a while to lick all the coolness out.

    By the way, I am a former NH school librarian, now retired to New Mexico. I'll tell you, I'll take dogs and cats over 8th graders any time! (Obviously, it was time for me to move on...).
