Animal welfare at Christmas time: Why pets are not a gift!

Animal welfare at Christmas time: Why pets are not a gift!

Herrenberger Straße 210, 71034 Böblingen, Deutschland - The district animal home of Böblingen urges the impulsive decision to give away pets for Christmas. Under the motto "Animals are not Christmas presents", Veterinary Manager Wilhelm Hornauer points out that many families often underestimate the responsibility associated with the admission of a four -legged friend. The thought of putting a sweet kitten or puppy under the Christmas tree may seem tempting, but the long -term obligations should not be underestimated. These animals not only need a lot of love and attention, but also a species-appropriate attitude and financial means to ensure their care, as is emphasized on the website of the Kreisierheims Böblingen.

The Böblinger district animal home also appeals that such a decision should not be made lightly. The urge to buy a pet at Christmas could result from short -term feelings, but this means a permanent responsibility for the next few years. Many animals are adopted with risely and then, often after a short time, end up in the shelter. The expectations and reality have to meet to ensure that animal and humans can live together harmoniously. Interested parties should find out well about the application process, since access to the animal areas is only possible after contacting and making an appointment, such as the Kreisierheim Böblingen explained.
