Bogarel’s hygiene tips when welcoming a new pet
Maintaining a clean environment is essential for your pet’s health and the cleanliness of your home
Litter boxes: Opt for a litter box with a design that contains waste and minimises odours. Covered or drawer designs can offer your cat privacy while keeping the litter out of sight.
Health and safety when adopting a pet
Pet care and vaccinations
First visit to the vet: Plan a visit to the vet shortly after your pet's arrival for a general health check, vaccinations and advice on preventive care.
Vaccination Plan: Follow the vet's recommendations on the vaccination schedule to protect your pet against common diseases.
Parasite prevention: Talk to your vet about options to protect your pet from fleas, ticks and worms.
Choosing the right furniture for your cat or dog
Raised beds: ideal for pets with joint problems, they offer easy access and keep them dry. We recommend the Lunar bed, which is both a pet bed and an occasional table.
Kennels and igloos offer privacy and comfort for pets who like their own space. We recommend the Solar wicker cat and small dog bed for pets who like to lounge in spheres.
Modern cat trees and scratching posts: Indispensable for cats, they encourage exercise and are an alternative to scratching furniture. We recommend the Constellation cork cat tree, which has several platforms and a hanging toy to stimulate your cat.
