Canine and feline care during pregnancy and beyond

MANILA, Philippines - With the main theme, “It’s a New Furbaby!” the Bow & Wow Times tackles what to expect when your pet is expecting, and what to have at hand and do during the new pup or kitten’s first year.  Peruse the back-to-back articles, “Stages and Signs of Dog Pregnancy,” Signs a Cat is Pregnant,” “New Puppy Checklist,” and “New Kitten Checklist” and embark on a fulfilling journey as pet parent.

An expectant canine requires increasing amounts of food to nourish her body and her developing litter. Learn the right meal size as your pregnant dog progresses to the later stages of pregnancy, proper supplementation, exercise, and other pre-delivery care for your pregnant pet through the article, “Care and Nutrition for Pregnant Dogs.”

Birthing time for your feline friends likewise requires dietary care and provision of basic supplies. Browse the feature article, “Cat Care During Pregnancy,” and flip the pages of the magazine to the interesting article, “Feeding Your New Furbaby” for tips on the dietary requirements of newborn kittens.

It is good to be prepared for the delivery of pups in your own household. The article, “Delivering Puppies and Post-Natal Care” outlines the stages that a dog undergoes when in labor; lists the telltale signs of an emergency that requires prompt veterinary attention; and offers advice on post-natal dog care.

Pet parents also carry the responsibility of training their pooches. A perfectly housebroken pet can be an absolute delight.  Read the “Top Ten Puppy Training Tips” and ensure positive experiences for your canine friend.
