Growing up my family always had animals, we had fish, we had cats, we had dogs, we had rabbits and we even had a pet raccoon at one time. One thing that I learned while young, is animals are not just animals, they’re family, especially dogs and cats. They say a dog is man’s best friend, and I have to agree.
It took my husband and I a long time to bring any pets into our home. We always had an excuse on why our child couldn’t have any, we either didn’t have the time or we didn’t have the means to properly take care of them. We finally agreed to get our daughter a dog in 2013, a family of 3 became a family of 4.
When we accepted Bones into our home, he became a part of our family, and most families want only the best for their family. Pet foods are a lot similar to human foods, you have your cheap foods, that provide a lot of fillers and ingredients that are not healthy, then you have your premium foods that are designed with high quality ingredients and cost a little more. However, don’t let the price tag of higher quality pet food, stop you from feeding your 4-legged family members the higher quality food. When you feed your pet a product that is of higher quality, they eat less and have less health problems, so in the long run you’ll find that you save more money when you feed them higher quality foods.
Oftentimes, living in smaller towns can limit ones options when it comes to feeding their pets the higher quality foods. Thankfully, with on-line websites such as K9Cuisine, your options are no longer limited. K9Cuisine.com was one of the first on-line pet retailers, that specialized on providing only high quality and healthy food options for both cats and dogs. K9Cuisine, was founded in 2007, and in those 9 years, they have built a reputation with their customers not only for the products they sell, but also for their excellent customer service, which has lead to returning customers and tens of thousands of orders.
K9Cuisine, looks at their customers as family, and like I said above, we only want the best for our families, and so does K9Cuisine, which is why they only sell the best of the best. They currently carry over 100 of the top pet foods, treats and accessories. They offer free shipping on all orders over $59, with their autoship program, you will never have to worry about running out of food for your pets, and you’ll get an extra 5% discount.
K9Cuisine, has recently started their own blog as away to give back to great charities that are geared around pets. On their blog, they will be providing their customers and non-customers with useful pet related articles, and they’ll also be bringing more awareness to shelters and non-profit pet organizations from all around the country.
If you have ever been into a shelter, or even looked on-line for pets that need homes, you’ll see that we have a problem. We have an over-population of cats and dogs and a large percentage of these family pets, that are thrown out end up in these shelters and usually receive a death sentence, unless a non-profit organization can get them pulled out of the shelter, before their end comes. Most times family pets end up at these shelters not because their aggressive, but because they’re no longer cute and cuddly and their human family no longer wants to care for them. Which is sad, that these animals are not as loved by their humans, as much as they love their humans.
K9Cuisine, knows this is a problem, and wants to bring more awareness and exposure to the problem. They also know shelters need as much help providing for these amazing creatures and they donate pet food and other items needed to care for these animals to several shelters and non-profit organizations across the country.
Like I said, shelters and non-profit organizations need as much help as they can get, you to can do your part by going to your local shelter or finding a local non-profit organization in your area, and seeing what all they need. Even if all you can offer is your time. Most times these dogs are placed in small kennels and get very little human interaction, all they want is a forever family, a family that will love them.
If you’re considering bringing a pet into your family, be sure you’re ready because cats and dogs have feelings as well, and when you bring them into your home, they see you as family and they form a bond quickly.
People can check with their local animal shelters and local animal rescues into fostering pets! Then if the people have weekends free, they can get involved with helping the animal rescues and shelters with their adoption events! I’ve done this many times and it’s extremely rewarding. In some ways, it’s like borrowing a dog for a while or watching puppies grow up until they are old enough to leave their moms. It’s great for families to do this, and children love playing with puppies and training dogs is pretty easy for most people.
