You’ve decided to bring a pocket pet into your home, and you couldn’t be more excited about the new addition. Since your pet will become a member of your family soon, you are making an effort to get his enclosure set up now. Where should you start?

Choose an appropriately sized living environment for your pet. Popular choices include glass aquarium tanks and wire cages. Try to find one that’s easy to clean, as you will be doing this quite a bit. Next, choose a bedding material for your pet.  The more natural the material, the better it will be for your pet. Be sure to offer a place to hide, places for both food and water, as well as plenty of toys to keep him busy. Make a point to add items that will help your pet get plenty of physical activity as well. For more information, please contact your local San Antonio, TX veterinarian.
