Don't Be Tempted...

It might be tempting to feed your pet human scraps as a treat but you may be doing them harm and causing excessive weight gain.

Keep this calorie translator in mind when you are having trouble saying ‘no’ to those adorable eyes!

For a 10kg dog:
> One biscuit = 1 hamburger for a human
> 30g piece of cheese = 1.5 hamburgers for a human
> One hot dog = 2.5 hamburgers for a human

For a 5kg cat:
> One potato chip = ½ a hamburger for a human
> 30g piece cheese = 2.5 hamburgers for a human
> A glass of milk = 3 hamburgers for a human!

Drop in at any time and we'll weigh your pet. We'll also advise you on treats that are suitable for your pet and are light on calories.
