Useful Guide For Pet Owners Making Preparations For Celebrations

By Danny Zito


There are people who enjoy having pets in their homes. They love having them around because they offer them companionship. The animals have been known to be very loyal to their owners so they can easily fit the role assigned to them. When the pet owners are hosting any celebrations, there are etiquette demands that they need to follow.

A good host is one who does all they can to ensure the comfort of their guests. Sometimes, the pet owner will be forced to seclude the animals to avoid any scene with the guests. They need to know how to host the event without having to worry about their pets getting in the way of a successful event.

There are a good number of people who are allergic to animals so ask your guests if they are affected by pets in advance. It is not possible for such people to enjoy the party when they are dealing with allergic reactions. This means that the host has to be extra careful when preparing the location of the party. Ensure that the home is well cleaned to remove any traces of hair and pet dander.

There are people who suffer from sever allergic reactions, if one of the guests falls under this category then greater precautions need to be taken. The host can hire a cleaning company to clean the carpet for them. The other alternative is to rent a steam cleaner and do it yourself.

The pets should be confined in one section of the room where the guests will not be going. There should be all sorts of toys and treats to keep them occupied. There can even be comfortable bed for them to rest in.

It is important for the pets to stay away from the guests because unfamiliar people can bring about stress. There is also the possibility that some of the guests will want to feed them and end up overdoing it.

Make sure that your home is clean of any unwanted smells prior to the party. Be thorough when cleaning the surfaces to ensure that you get rid of the odors caused by the pets. For effective results baking soda can be used to subdue the smells since it is harmless when consumed by the animals.

The litter boxes are a good source of the smells so they should be kept clean. When they are being cleaned it should be done with baking soda. If the litter is being changed the container should be sprinkled with baking soda to keep it smelling fresh. The bedding can also be deodorized with the same substance by applying baking soda letting it sit for fifteen minutes. Once the fifteen minutes are over the bedding should be vacuumed off to clean them of the baking soda and dirt.

The pet's toys can also be cleaned using a similar solution. If the toy cannot be immersed in the solution it can be sprinkled with the powder and then thoroughly brushed to maintain a fresh scent. It is better to perform all the above activities before the celebrations begin to ensure that your home smells fresh and clean.
