Your pet means the world to you, and you take caring for her very seriously. You’d like to have some extra food on hand for your little fur ball just in case it’s needed. How can you store some additional food in your home?

Your pet needs plenty of food to stay healthy. Think about what foods and how much she usually eats to determine an appropriate amount of food to keep in your home. You want to make sure the food you purchase will be eaten before it spoils, so it’s important to understand how fast your pet will go through it. You should also store it in dry, temperature-controlled place where no other animals will get to it. This may require repackaging certain food items to ensure they will last until the time when your pet consumes them. Your local animal hospital Roanoke, VA can offer additional guidance.
