Good Sleeping Places For Pets - Your Pet Deserves It By Tango Pang

Experienced pet owners know that our animal companions definitely have minds of their own, and do not always share our opinions about what is best for them.

So you have bought your pet a cute little bed or sofa, and allocated a proper sleeping place for it, but you can practically guarantee that the pet will decide it would prefer to sleep on something else (usually something you need to use) and in a different place (usually a spot that makes it hardest for the family to move around and get things done).

However, it would be best if you could mark out a pet sleeping spot that is out of the way of high-traffic areas in the home, and where it is possible and convenient to keep the lights off at night to help your pet build and maintain its protective melatonin levels. The pet sleeping spot must be shaded from direct sun, sheltered from direct droughts, but cool and well ventilated.

No matter whether the pet sleeping area is used by day or night (more likely both), it should give easy access to drinking water and an appropriate spot for the pet to relieve. If your dog or cat is garden-trained, you may want to install a pet-flap. However, most dogs and cats adjust their toilet habits as they mature, so they do not need to be let out at night.

For nocturnal caged animals like hamsters and chinchillas, make sure the cages are kept in a quiet, cool sheltered spot by day so that the animals will not be disturbed by regular household bustle.
