CASPER, Wyo., Dec. 11, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Westside Animal Hospital would like to alert area pet owners about their professional dog boarding and cat boarding services. Casper pet boarding is a key service for pet owners who travel during the holiday season or any time of year.
Many people gather together with family and friends during the holiday season. While some are able to celebrate the holidays in their own city, many others travel elsewhere to join extended family during the holidays. While it can be tempting to bring pets along on these trips, doing so can result in added stress to the already challenging task of holiday travel. Most dogs and cats prefer routine and a familiar environment. Whether traveling by car or airplane, bringing a pet can cause distress to both the animal and everyone involved.
Even when pets arrive at their destination, it will be a home or hotel with unfamiliar smells. These variables inevitably trigger a stress response in animals. This can lead to loss of appetite, health issues and behavioral problems. Many pets are unlikely to enjoy any type of travel, including travel for the holidays.
Leaving a cat at home alone is a less than ideal solution as well. Felines left on their own for long periods of time can experience stress and loneliness. If they have an accident or medical emergency in the home, no one will be there to address it.
In many cases, dog boarding and cat boarding is the ideal solution. Casper pet boarding allows both the pet owner and pets to avoid the many pitfalls of holiday travel. While pet owners are away, dogs will enjoy exercise, playful activity and human affection. Cats who are boarding will be able to relax in a soothing environment. All pets will be provided with food and any needed medical care.
