For a start I flew 1 rescue dog and 4 rescue cats from India to Europe, rubbing the Pet Remedy calming wipes on their flight crates to help reduce the stress of the journey. Awaiting us in our new house in Europe were 3 Pet Remedy Heated Pet Pads to help the cats adjust to the new cooler climate. I leave these on 24 hours a day, and while the cats actually love the snow outside and are much more active in the cooler weather, every pad is used everyday – I have scattered them around the house. I keep one room at about 28C temperature for them, but still they like to go into the cooler rooms and sleep on the pads. Even my 32kg dog likes to lie on one and it is good heat therapy for him as he is slightly lame in one knee.
I soon picked up another kitten who was lost, so took the opportunity to order a 4th heated pad. And a calming diffuser and a spray and more sachets… well, the list goes on. Pet Remedy have a focused set of products, all targeted on pet wellbeing – warmth, reassurance, security and relaxation. In India we used incense for fragrance on occasion, but we could only use it outside or with all the windows open as the smoke/scent is not good for pets in a confined space. Now, in Europe, I find myself surrounded by the fashion for scented candles and home deoderisers instead. Many of these contain fragrances, chemicals and aromatherapy oils that are toxic to pets (e.g. pine oil). My cat has only one lung, and my dog’s nose was bitten off by a leopard, so there is no way I want to make the air in their new home damaging for their lungs or bodies. But we can’t have all the windows open here on account of the winter cold. So, INSTEAD of using scented candles or incense, I am now using the Pet Remedy calming diffuser. The house is nicely scented, the pets are happy, and most of all they are safe.
My Indian cats do not respond to catnip at all, so it is interesting that they all respond positively and noticeably to the calming wipes / spray. My biggest cat, 8kg Tim Nice But Dim, tears the wipes apart in delight, so I have to put them out of reach. When I wipe them on the cats’ beds, they all rub and roll on the beds. Every item I have bought from Pet Remedy is responded to and used by my animals in a positive way for them. What more could you want.
