You may (or may not know) that
some plants can be toxic to pets if they get the urge to munch the flowers and plants you keep around the house and garden. Even some of the most common flowers
like Baby's Breath, which come in many arrangements, can be unassuming but totally harmful to your pets if ingested. Thankfully, the ASPCA
has a complete list of plants that are a-ok and safe for plant-snacking pets, even if it wears down your patience!

If you have a cat, you know the litter box can be a royal pain to keep clean and
smell free! Not only do you want to keep it from repelling your house guests, but it must appeal to your kitty as well. Now
not all litters are created equal, so if you find that your cat isn't using his litter box, you may be using a litter that smells bad to him.

Undoubtedly, there has been a few times where you have let your
fish tank go a little longer than normal between cleanings. A good thorough cleaning should happen at least once a month, where you replace at least ten percent of the water, clean off decorative accents, and vacuum or siphon the rocks. Since the primary cause of nitrate and algae in fish tanks is due to natural debris accumulating in the tank, cleaning the rocks and decorations is key to keep your tank (and fish) healthy.

Spring cleaning doesn't have to be limited to actual cleaning. You can take this opportunity to tidy up your daily routine as well. And what better way than to start with your beloved pets, and the food that fuels your pet's body!

Happy Spring Cleaning! By no means do we neaten up our homes only once a year, but 'tis the season to start fresh. I'm trying to live a
greener lifestyle and, as an former English major, I can't even pronounce half the chemicals in several household cleansers.
