Why working from home with your pet is the best!

Working from home doesn’t have to be all that lonely. A pet can be a healthy distraction, making sure you’re taking a break from your screen to play fetch and stretching your legs every few hours to grab treats. And you’ll be supporting rescue organisations who are trying to make sure their pets are safe in a loving home.

There are lots of great reasons why now is a good time to adopt. You can use all this time you spend at home to set routines for and help them settle in. Here are some other ways to spend quality indoor time with your pet:

🎾 Play games

You won’t miss out on sports because your furry is always up for a game. Kick a ball around the backyard or show them who's boss in a friendly wrestling match!

🧸 Teach your pet new tricks

📺 Binge-watch telly together

Your pet might not understand the plot to your favourite TV show, but hey, you’ll at least have a cuddle buddy to get through it.

📸  Do a photoshoot

Is it too early to start planning your family Christmas portrait? Not if you have all that free time! Get some props, set up your tripod and get the pet selfies on a roll.
