Happy New Year
from
The Pets Rock Blog!






The Pets Rock Blog would like to wish all our readers a Merry Christmas. To those who don’t celebrate Christmas we wish a Happy Festive Season.

If you are celebrating do it in a responsible manner.
If you are driving, be careful, the roads are dangerous this time of year.
If you have pets please take extra care of their safety and happiness.
Remember that animals have sensitive hearing and that the sound of fireworks and fire crackers can be very traumatic for them.
The South African Guide-Dog Association will be hosting their 2009 Carols by Candlelight on 2 December 2009. The event will be held at their Johannesburg head-quarters. Please support this event, it’s for a good cause. See the flyer for more details:

I just couldn’t resist posting this… Though,if you plan on dressing up your pets please read my advice in the previous post first.

Halloween is coming up this weekend. While it is not very big in South Africa some of us will be dressing up and some will use it as an excuse to dress the dog or cat in cutesy outfits (some don’t need an excuse really)
It may be cute, but it’s probably humiliating the dog and definitely humiliating the cat . I know I’d be humiliated if my mom dressed me in funny outfits. However if you do drss up your pet please keep in mind the following advice.
