Keep your pet active in Minnesota's cold winter

My dogs and cats like to be outside most of the year. I set up a Catio for Mr. Bean and Mr. Pneuma, just outside of my patio door, with a chair with a cat bed, a scratch post, a trash can, and even a catnip flower pot. Mr. Bean lives outdoors, where he can watch the birds playing in the trees and the squirrels running around on the trunk

Gloria, my idiot, likes to explore the walking trails, look for rabbits and squirrels, and occasionally do a figure eight zoom around the backyard like a little cowboy horse.

We are lucky to have wonderful extended autumn temperatures, but once it reaches the 30s, my pet is very disappointed. Mr. Bean still wanted to go out, looking at me and begging me to change the weather forecast. Gloria, my dog ​​said, "Mom... can't I urinate in the house?" It's too cold to do my thing outside. "Yes. She will go, but when the temperature drops, she needs some coaxing.

Keeping your pet active in the winter is still important, so if you don’t know how to solve this problem, don’t worry. I have some good ideas to help you through the long and cold winter.

We developed this game a few months ago. I chased her...she chased me back...we are like children playing hide and seek, you never know when Gloria decides whether she is a chaser or a hider.

Maybe you want to teach your dog how to get you a bunch of things from the refrigerator, or maybe you just want to teach them some interesting commands, such as sit down, shake, roll over, and play dead. Winter is a great way to spend quality time with your pets, and when they learn something, they actually get closer to you. Even in pet relationships, communication is key.

Are there any tugboat toys? How about throwing things? My dog ​​Gloria would rather chase her food than the ball in the living room, but my boyfriend Darling taught her how to eat from his mouth on the chair and table. He even taught her how to talk when she wanted something. Super sweet, she is very devoted.

Cats are easy to please. I always know when my cat, Mr. Bean is ready, because he has a pair of extraterrestrial eyes on his face, and the game begins. We chase ropes and feathers. I have a lot of small toys. They will be attracted to them when I am not at home.
