Where should my pet sleep?
Dogs:
Dogs like a consistent place to sleep such as a dog bed or a cage that is large enough for them to turn around or stretch.
Puppies need a place to stretch and grow. Adjust the pet bed size with your puppy’s growth.
Cats:
Older cats independently choose where they sleep. Kittens may feel more secure in their own bed.
Sample bed: Cardboard box on the ground floor, lined with an old towel or clothing. Neo- Kittens will need a hot water bottle or a small heating pad. The bed must be long enough for the cat to stretch out. Wash and/or change bedding frequently.
