Oslo Cares: Embracing the 'Unique' Hearts of Our Dear Pets
April is World Autism Awareness Month, a time to acknowledge and understand the beautiful spectrum of differences. At Oslo Pet Insurance, we believe every paw print tells a story, and we open our hearts to the unique needs of all our cherished pets.
Did you know our beloved companions can sometimes display behaviors similar to autism? Let's gently explore what to look for:
Dogs:
- Does your pup seem to get stuck in a loop, like chasing their tail or licking their paws way too much?
- Do loud noises send them running for cover?
- Are they a bit shy with eye contact or cuddles?
Quick tip: With all the hustle and bustle in the UAE, some dogs might just be a bit more sensitive to noise.
Cats:
- Does your cat prefer their own company, hiding away for long stretches?
- Do they have one favorite toy they're totally obsessed with?
- Are they a bit stressed when their routine gets thrown off?
Friendly reminder: Indoor cats in apartments love their routines!
Why Does This Matter?
Understanding these behaviors can help you create a more comfortable environment for your pet. If your pet is sensitive to loud noises, for example, you can take steps to minimize their exposure. If they are prone to anxiety due to routine changes, you can try to maintain a consistent schedule. Recognizing these quirks can help you and your vet work together to keep your pet happy and healthy.
If you're ever unsure about your pet's behavior, a quick chat with your vet is always a good idea! They can help you figure out what's going on and give you some helpful tips.
Oslo Pet Insurance is here to help you take care of your furry friends. We provide coverage for those unexpected vet visits, so you can focus on giving your pet the best possible care.
Big shoutout to parents of neurodiverse kids: We know how much your pets mean to you!
