First Aid is not just for humans, it can be just as critical for our pets too.
Every pet parent should have a pet first aid kit in the house and should take it on any holidays or adventures with the pets, just in case.
This kit can help to provide vital first aid to your beloved pet until they can be taken to a veterinary professional. You can of course make your own kit, or you can buy them online or in pet shops. For example, the the PATS Gold Award Product of the year 2023 Poorly Paws first aid kit
The Poorly Paws kit is:
Veterinary nurse approved
As seen at Crufts 2023
Loved by professional dog walkers and dog owners alike
Refillable
Compact, lightweight & waterproof
An app to coincide with the first aid kit is coming very soon too!
This kit is a true must have for pet guardians as it's so small & mighty you can take it on any adventures as easily as you do a treat pouch. When you use items, don't worry, there's even refills available to order here
Each first-aid kit contains:
4 x Alcohol-Free Sterile Cleansing Wipes
1 x Disposable Gloves
1 x Tick Remover (3 sizes)

Learning first aid skills of course is highly recommended by us, not just to help your own animals but they may also be used to help others too.
