We love our pets no matter how big of a mess they make, but when Spot leaves a spot, it’s HousekeepingChannel.com who’s your best friend. Following is a smattering of helpful resources that let your pets coexist peacefully with your clean (and safe) home.
Pet Fur Frenzy, by Don Aslett, gives helpful tips for controlling pet hair in your home.
Read The Scoop on Dog Poop, by Fran Sorin, to find out why not picking up after your dog is bad for the environment.
If your pet encounters the south end of a northbound skunk (what my husband likes to call a “country kitty”), you might want to keep this article handy: How to De-Skunk Your Pet, by Stacy E. Smith. (If you have your vet on speed-dial, you might consult with him or her first.)
Also, remember to keep your pets safe as you plan your attack on varmints that like to come inside in the fall. See Pet Protection: Rat and Mouse Poisons Could Also Harm Pets, by the ASPCA.
If you think your pet has ingested something dangerous, there is a number you can call. Reach the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center at (888) 426-4435.
