The Effects of Cold Weather on Pets

Pets who are exposed to the effects of cold weather face many dangerous challenges. Here are some concerns to think about during the cold seasons of fall and winter. Preparing now will mean your dog or cat will be safe and comfortable, no matter how bad the weather becomes.

Dehydration due to Frozen Drinking Water

Pets need fresh water, especially during the cold when their bodies are susceptible to dehydration. Sub-freezing temperatures cause a pet's water to freeze quickly and become undrinkable.

K&H heated bowls automatically turn on as needed to prevent freezing. Rest easy knowing your pets will be well hydrated all winter.

Hypothermia & Frostbite

A dog's or cat's normal body temperature should be about 102° F. If it drops well below this, hypothermia can set it and lead to respiratory and heart issues.

Extended exposure to the cold can lead to frostbite in a pet's extremities. Frostbite is the death of tissue and most common for pets in their toes, tails, and ears.

K&H heated pads and beds heat to your pet's ideal body temperature, keeping them comfortable and safe in even the coldest conditions.
