At Pet Paradise, the safety and well-being of your pets are our top priority. This guide provides essential information to help you create a safe environment for your pets and ensure they use our products responsibly.

---

1. Supervise Playtime

• Always monitor your pets when introducing new toys, especially interactive or chew toys.
• Inspect toys regularly for signs of wear or tear; broken or damaged toys can pose choking hazards or cause injuries.
• Rotate toys frequently to keep your pet engaged while reducing overuse damage.

---

2. Choose the Right Size and Material

• Select toys, collars, and products that are appropriate for your pet’s size and breed.
• Avoid giving small toys to larger pets, as they may accidentally swallow them.
• For chewing products, use durable materials designed for your pet’s chewing strength to prevent breakage or ingestion.

---

3. Proper Use of Feeding Accessories

• Use non-toxic, food-grade bowls and feeders to ensure no harmful chemicals leach into your pet’s food or water.
• Clean bowls, fountains, and automatic feeders daily to prevent bacteria or mold from developing, which can lead to illness.
• If using slow feeders, ensure the design is suitable for your pet’s eating habits.

---

4. Safe Bedding and Furniture

• Ensure pet beds and furniture (e.g., cat trees, climbing posts) are stable and free of loose threads or sharp edges.
• Do not place beds or furniture near heaters, open flames, or unstable surfaces.
• Regularly clean cushions and padding to prevent mites, allergens, or odors from accumulating.

---

5. Keep Toxic Products out of Reach

• Store household cleaning products, medications, and other potentially toxic substances in secure locations, away from your pet’s reach.
• Be cautious of plants that are toxic to pets, such as lilies, aloe vera, or philodendrons, and keep them out of your pet’s environment.

---

6. Collars, Leashes, and Harnesses

• Ensure collars and harnesses fit properly; two fingers should fit comfortably between the strap and your pet's fur to prevent choking or irritation.
• Check for signs of fraying or damage regularly, as weakened straps can snap.
• Use reflective collars or leashes to ensure visibility during nighttime walks.

---

7. Safety Around Pet Electronics

• Keep cords from automated feeders, fountains, or heating pads out of reach of curious pets.
• Use only pet-safe devices built with low voltage to minimize risks.
• Follow manufacturer instructions carefully to avoid misuse or malfunctions.

---

8. Travel Safety

• Always use well-ventilated carriers that fit your pet comfortably for trips.
• Secure carriers in the car to prevent movement during sudden stops or turns.
• Avoid leaving a pet unattended in a vehicle, especially in extreme weather conditions.

---

9. Training and Socialization

• Train your pets to use products like beds, bowls, or toys to help them become accustomed to their purpose safely.
• Gradual exposure to new environments or accessories, along with positive reinforcement, can reduce stress for your pet and prevent accidents.

---

10. Know When to Replace Products

• Replace any products showing signs of wear, such as ripped beds, cracked bowls, or broken toy parts.
• For consumables like chews or dental treats, ensure they’re replaced before expiration.
