Give them access to lots of fresh, cool water and make sure they are not sitting outside in the sweltering sun for any extended period of time \u2013 heat stroke is very common in animals and they rely on us to take their health needs into consideration. Be aware as well that animals have fur for a reason \u2013 while the FURminator can help with the grooming process, it is not a good idea to unnaturally shave a pet to keep them cooler and let them go outdoors &#8211; they can get sunburns too, so the best advice is to keep them indoors where the temperatures are cooler.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"rafl\" id=\"rc-4d001b2\" href=\"http:\/\/www.rafflecopter.com\/rafl\/display\/4d001b2\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">a Rafflecopter giveaway<\/a><br \/>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"\/\/widget.rafflecopter.com\/load.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>For more information about other pet hair\u00a0solutions for your cats and dogs and what sizes and types of FURminator de<strong>Shedding<\/strong> products are available, please visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.furminator.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.furminator.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>You can also follow them at:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/FURminator\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/furminator_inc\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/furminator\/\" target=\"_blank\">Pinterest <\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"hearts\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/zeezoey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/hearts.png\" width=\"71\" height=\"30\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><i>While this post is sponsored by FURminator\u00a0and I am being compensated for helping spread the word about FURminator, we have happily been using the FURminator\u00a0at Zee &amp; Zoey&#8217;s\u00a0for years and only share information we feel is relevant or important to our readers.
