While a balanced diet is very important to keep your house pets healthy and happy, that’s still not enough to ensure that they get the healthiest life possible. Just like a balanced diet, drinking water on a regular basis is an essential part of your pets’ everyday needs and nutrition. Most importantly, water is a key component of the healthy living cells of your pets’ body. Without it, our pets’ bodies would not function properly, which means that our furry companions would start getting dehydrated over time. Overall, water helps our pets’ bodies to transfer important nutrients in and out of their body’s cells. Not only does water help our pets to digest their food better, but also helps their bodies to absorb nutrients in a much easier way. Lastly, a bit of fresh water every now and then can also help our pets to cool-off their bodies and maintain a normal body temperature, and that goes especially for these hot summer days. This brings us to the PetSafe Creekside Ceramic Pet Fountain.
The PetSafe Creekside Ceramic Pet Fountain is a high-quality scratch-resistant ceramic water fountain for pets that features a quiet, yet constant flowing water stream that not only encourages your pet to drink more, but also allows them to stay fresh and hydrated at any given moment.
Having your pets drinking water on a regular basis is extremely important for their health, as water is the most important of all the vital nutrients needed for a pet’s growth as well as to help your pets maintain a healthy diet. Overall, water constitutes nearly 84 percent of a newborn puppy and around 60 percent of an adult dog. This ultimately makes water the basis for all metabolic processes of our pets’ bodies.
