Banning the bowl: thinking outside the bowl when it comes to feeding our pets

Pages 77-79 | Received 24 Jan 2020, Accepted 07 Feb 2020, Published online: 06 Mar 2020
 

ABSTRACT

With increasing number of pets becoming overweight we need to look at innovative ways to feed our dogs and cats. There are ways to make feeding time more interactive for feline hunters and canine scavengers. Owner compliance is essential in reducing weight and boredom in their pets and there are ways that nurses can involve them to be creative in their feeding rituals.
