Pet First Aid Kits – Pet Supplies For An Emergency

Keep a pet first aid kit at home, in the camper and in the car to always be prepared when you travel or to help another’s pet who is in distress.

Pet experts and veterinarians maintain that a normal temperature for both dog and cats ranges from between 101.0 to 102.5°F (38.3 to 39.2°C). It is always a good idea to know your pet’s baseline temperature on a “normal” day and save it in your phone or jot it down in your pet journal. A normal pet temperature falls into what would be considered a fever for humans, so knowing this fact on the front end will save a bit of worry. If your pet’s temperature rises above 104°F (40.0°C) or falls below 99°F (37.2°C), there is cause for concern and we recommend calling your veterinarian immediately.

Choose products that are designed for dogs, cats or pets. They are formulated with ingredients that are safe for pets. Always test the product in a small spot to make sure your pet is not allergic, it does not further irritate the skin and if it provides relief. Read the reviews, do the research and choose the products that are best designed for your pet’s need. Here are a few of our picks.
