How can I keep my child healthy and safe around a pet? 1. Choose your pets wisely, if you don’t already own a pet, study and learn from different breeds and species, you will find that some are specially “kid friendly”. 2. Consider any allergies a family member could have, before acquiring a pet. Consult with your kid’s pediatrician about any allergies that may be present. 3. Take your pet to veterinary to a general check up before you bring it home.

* Always supervise interaction between pets and kids. * Teach your child not to touch any pet, unless you say it’s OK to do so. * Never leave pets and kids unattended. Kids tend to play rough and that could provoke an attack or harm a small pet. * Make sure your child stays away while pet is eating, sleeping or taking care of its own offspring. * Teach your child to keep a good hygiene, not to touch pet droppings and wash his hands after playing with pet. * Treat immediately any scratch or bite caused by a pet. Consult with your child’s pediatrician if scratch or bite tears your child’s skin.
