With lockdowns and restrictions being re-imposed across the nation, pet parents along with their pets will be stuck indoors. Even though pets won’t be able to visit parks, special care needs to be taken to ensure they’re safeguarded against the summer heat. A number of online pet stores selling a wide range of personal care products, clothing, accessories, toys, and much more cater to the varied needs of pet owners. Here is a list of products you can order online that will keep your pets cool.
Comfortable naps
Indian summers can be extreme for many pets that are not used to high temperatures. The easiest way to ensure the comfort of your pets is a cooling mat. The ‘Cool Mat’ (INR 2250) by Pet Comfort is made of multi-layer materials that will absorb heat and moisture. Once you’ve refrigerated the mat, its non-toxic gel centre regulates your pet’s body temperature upon contact and keeps them cool for hours making it the ideal accompaniment for your pet’s afternoon nap.

Cool wear
If you have a heat sensitive dog and are always worried about keeping them cool, the Trixie-Cooling Vest (INR 1,450) sold by Chew Central will prove useful to you. Made of highly absorbent PVA, the vest cools by evaporation. Simply soak the vest in water for the material to absorb the water before making your pet wear it. The soaked water will slowly evaporate and keep your dog cool. The vest also comes with a loop fastener and hook to ensure a suitable fit. The Mumbai-based online pet store sells a range of cooling products, from bandanas to cooling mats as well.
