After you or your children have enjoyed cuddling your beloved pet, it’s a good idea to wash your hands. Animals can carry germs, after all. The chance of actually getting sick is small, but prevention is always better than cure. Your pet’s habitat can become a breeding ground for pests, bacteria, and unpleasant odours. All animal enclosures can lead to unpleasant smells. That’s why it’s important to clean the habitat regularly with a product like Capturine Pets Bio-Cleaning. This biological cleaning agent is safe for humans, animals, and the environment.
Did your pet have a little accident? Odorcide helps eliminate unpleasant odours caused by urine, faeces, or vomit. Don’t forget to clean the water bottle and food bowl as well during cleaning.

For example, the FURminator for small animals is specially designed for rabbits to help prevent hairballs and digestive issues.
