View Point: Hygiene alert for pet lovers!
We all love our pets. Pets are fun and part of our family. We think of our pets as a good companion and friend. They keep our homes lively but certainly do not always guarantee good health unless tended to carefully, for they can rain down illness when you are least prepared. Having pets in our lives requires certain simple measures of hygiene for our homes, our pets and us. This will help avoid as far as possible, contamination by micro-organisms often carried by animals. These germs and parasites can pass onto us without us knowing and make us ill.
