Are Your Pets Clean and Healthy?

by Dragon_Girl879

Hi, I'm here to talk to you about hygiene and health. It is very important to keep your pet clean, healthy and most of all, happy! Here are a few tips to remember when you put your pet to bed and wake him or her up in the morning.

(1) Keep your pets happy and clean. Most pets like being clean but some don't. To clean your pet use soap and shampoo. Then once your pet is done washing dry them off with towels. They will probably need a washing once a week.

(2) Brush your pets or they'll have very scraggly fur. NeoPets are very special. Short haired pets use ONLY short haired brushes and long haired pets ONLY use long haired brushes. If you use the wrong brush your pet may become angry. If you are not sure of your pet's fur length you can ask some people in the help section of the chat or you might know already. For example: you can tell an Aisha is a short haired pet and that a Usul is a long haired pet.

(3) Let your pet admire themselves in a mirror when you are done grooming them. They like seeing how nice they look. But, don't let them look too long, or else they'll get picky about their looks. Even better, the mirrors and the brushes come in matching colours!

(4) Brushing! Your pets need their teeth and brushing them is a perfect way to keep the from falling out. Use toothpaste once a day or whenever needed. Use the medicinal toothbrush if your pet has Neogitus. Also try to stop your pet from eating a lot of sweets.

(5) Perfume, lipstick, and blush. Try to stay away from these sort of things. They'll make your pet's skin and facial area get very sensitive if used to much. But if that's how some pets like it, that's fine. Just as long as you wash it off every night with soap.

(6) Eating right is also part of a healthy pet. It's best to eat healthy fruits and vegetables, organic or not. Cheese, milkshakes, and plain old milk are also a good thing for a body. Milk can be Low fat or plain, chocolate, raspberry, banana, or vanilla. Milkshakes and milk can be any flavour because your still giving them milk. Bread and vegetarian meat, orange juice and apple juice are also good foods. Vitamins are also an excellent way to keep a pet healthy.

These are some unhealthy foods:

Chocolates
Candies (candy canes, N&N's, Neodrops, etc.)
Doughnuts
Cheeseburgers, tacos, hot-dogs, etc.
Omelettes (These are "iffy". I just depends on what type you buy. Bacon for example are not that good but vegetable omelettes are fine)
Sausages (not vegetarian), hams, both types of bacon, etc.
Pizza and Neocola
Faerie Bubbles (too much sugar)
Faerie foods (the pizzas and french fries mostly)

Other healthy foods:

Tyrannian plants
Some Maraquan food (kelp, Seaweed Sandwich, yolk beans, plant-like foods)
Cheese sandwich
Smoothies
Churros, Crispies, Cheese tortilla (just cheese, flour and water)
Neggs
Mystery Island Fruit
Snow Food (it's snow! lol)
Faerie toast

(7) Exercise with your pet by playing games or going to Grundo's Gym. Exercising is a good way to prevent your pet from becoming a couch potato.

These are not necessary to do but some pets like being brushed and eating healthy. Cleaning your pet and brushing their teeth is for their health and benefit.

All of these items can be found in the NeoPet Marketplace and they are 'usable' on your pets. If you decide to start giving your pet healthy food I strongly recommend visiting the Health Food Shop or the Marketplace where you can find good food for a good price. Now, isn't it easy to own a clean and healthy pet? Yes of course it is. It takes only a few loving minutes to show your pet you love them.
