Christmas is just a few days away and while you’re shopping to get those last minute presents, make sure your furry friends don’t miss out!

As well as getting gifts for all the humans in your life, many pet owners like to make sure that their cats and dogs are involved in all the fun of the festive season and buying them new toys, tasty snacks or a cosy new bed to sleep in is something that many animal owners choose to do.

Giving your pets their own treats at Christmas instead of human food is recommended by experts. Although a small bit of the Christmas dinner is a nice treat, too much rich food isn’t good for cats and dogs and some festive food such as chocolate and grapes can be poisonous to pets.

Alongside treating your pets, you may want to treat an animal lover in your life to their very own cat or dog. However, this is not recommended as charities like the RSPCA report larger numbers of animals being abandoned over the festive period because kittens and puppies are given as gifts to people that can’t look after them.

To find the perfect gift for your four legged friend this Christmas make sure you visit Online For Pets. The web-based store onlineforpets.co.uk can provide your pet with everything they could want this Christmas. This includes toys from leading brands such as Kong and Nina Ottosson, as well as a wide range of pet care supplies such as beds, collars, leads and training equipment so visit onlineforpets for all your pets needs both at Christmas and throughout the rest of the year.

Dog and cat owners need to ensure that they are taking extra care of their pets during the winter, as they are much more likely to be involved in an accident in these months.

A study from insurance company More Th>n found that there were 59% more claims for road accidents between November 2010 and January 2011, compared to the previous three months.  The research also highlighted a number of areas as hotspots for pet accidents and these are Ilford and Sutton in London, Huddersfield and Halifax in Yorkshire, and Carlisle in Cumbria.

The increase in the number of pets being injured or killed in road accidents in the winter is thought to be caused by a lack of visibility during the dark mornings and evenings, as motorists simply don’t always see them before its too late.

Making your pet more likely to be seen in the dark can be done by investing in high visibility and reflective cat and dog collars for them to wear every day and brightly coloured dog coats or vests for when you take them out on walks. Taking this simple precaution can ensure that drivers will see your pet and be able to stop before it is too late.

When looking for dog and cat supplies, contact the experts at Online For Pets for a great selection of items from the leading brands including Kong, Gor Pets, Halti, Clix and Visglo. All items are available at competitive prices, and when you shop with Online For Pets you can be sure of a great customer service as there is a no quibble 7 day money back guarantee and free shipping on orders of over £50.

addmysupport is asking people to consider sponsoring a dog this Christmas.

This year a record number of dogs have been abandoned outside Gloucestershire’s animal shelters, which are having to turn them away due to their inability to cope with the sheer volume.

Chris Davis, addmysupport.com founder pointed out that, “When there is no room at shelters – or the finance is unavailable – the only option is to put them down.

“The sad fact is that many of these dogs were, and will be purchased as Xmas gifts, only for their owners to find they cannot cope, afford or give enough time to their pets. With the recession continuing the crisis shows no signs of stopping.

“We’re not trying to discourage people from buying a pet – there are plenty of loving pets out there looking for a good home – we just want them to consider whether it’s the best time for them to do so.

Which is why this Christmas addmysupport.com is campaigning to get people to either sponsor a dog or to donate to Animal shelters.

“It’s a great alternative for animal lovers who would like a pet but currently are not in a position to do so, or simply just people who care,” Mr Davis added. “And very often it’s a gift that keeps on giving.”

You can get involved with the “Sponsor a dog this Xmas” campaign at: http://addmysupport.com/pages/sponsor_a_dog_this_xmas.

For further information please contact: Chris Davis on 01453 873059 or chrisdavis@addmysupport.com.

The ‘Dorwest Say Relax’ Firework Phobia campaign sparks into life this autumn, grabbing the attention of thousands of pet owners.

This time round Dorwest’s efforts to get the word out are being supported by TV presenter Michaela Strachan who has concerns about her own dog’s reaction to fireworks, “My dog Toto is absolutely terrified of firework noise, he usually ends up shaking and hiding in a dark cupboard. Its always been hard to know how to help him, being able to give him a Dorwest herbal remedy to calm him down is a fantastic solution and I fully support their campaign to make more pet owners aware that help is available.”

There are also new look point of sale materials and leaflets to help vet practices and retailers to support the initiative. Once again Dr Monkey, the charismatic Border Terrier, will be adding his woof to the debate on the blogosphere, encouraging pet owners to make sure that their pet stays relaxed and mellow throughout the firework season.

Pet owners eagerly viewed Dr Monkey’s diary of his day-to-day life leading up to firework night last year. The personality of the cheeky Border Terrier shone through and the blog highlighted just how easy it was for Dr Monkey and his friends to stay calm and relaxed in the face of firework fears and phobias, albeit with a little help from Dorwest’s herbal treatments.

See Dr Monkey on Facebook, Twitter and at http://dorwestdrmonkey.blogspot.com from mid September and don’t forget to bring his amusing yet educational antics to the attention of pet owners.

The campaign’s positive approach emphasises how pets can be helped to adopt a laidback attitude and the theme is developed in new leaflets with updated advice in an easy to read format. To help stockists make a big noise with the campaign there is a ‘Dorwest Say Relax’ fireworks promo kit containing leaflets, leaflet holder, poster, shelf wobbler and stickers, which will be sent on request free of charge from Dorwest while stocks last. Simply contact Dorwest, telephone 01308 897272 or email trade@dorwest.com.

For those that like to take the technical approach there is a new technical sheet describing the likely mode of action of Scullcap & Valerian Tablets and Organic Valerian Compound with information on some of the latest published studies.

With a recent survey showing that over 90 per cent of customers would buy these products again, Scullcap and Valerian Tablets and Organic Valerian Compound are set to fly off the shelves during the busy firework period, so remember to stock up early!
