Chubby cats and dogs are frequent heroes of social networks. Take a closer look at your pet - perhaps it will soon become a YouTube star too.

The reason pets gain excess weight is the New Year holidays and the abundance of delicious dishes.

If you want to help your pet get back to a healthy and active state, try these simple steps to shed those extra pounds.

Don't fall for provocations

Ignore your pet's hungry looks and demanding behavior - this will teach him not to beg for food from the table. Remember that human food can be harmful to animals, and do not allow food poisoning. If the animal often vomits, is weak and refuses water, contact a veterinarian.

Add more walks and games

If the weather permits, increase the time your pet spends outside and take active walks.

This will help not only your pet, but also you to get back into shape faster after the holiday feasts.

Cats that spend most of their time at home can be given new toys that will help them burn off extra calories. Various balls, squeakers, and sticks will be a great gift for your pet and will help him lose weight.

Stick to the schedule

The number of meals a day for your pet should be discussed with your veterinarian, but usually two meals a day is enough for adult pets.

Following a regimen will help avoid overeating and maintain a normal weight for your cat or dog.

Previously, we talked about indoor plants that are dangerous for dogs.
