Over the last few weeks I’ve been asked how I put my pets in my planner, and to be honest it isn’t too interesting, but I thought I would let you guys in on what’s going on.
The first way that I put my pets in my planner is on the side bar I put this sticker for Gatsby and this sticker for Lucia. Obviously these aren’t perfect, but I sort of use them as they are and make it work. Basically instead of cage for both of them it means spot cleaning and actually cleaning the wheels. For Food for Lucia I use it much more for fresh veggies, which she gets every day.
There’s quiet the story behind the hedgehog one actually, I was playing around online and found the hamster one and my mom contacted the shop and the owner (Snowy Swan) was so sweet and did it in a few days. My mom told me that there was a surprise for me on her Etsy and I was so excited to see it! I read over the conversation my mom had with the owner and she was so sweet. I’ll have a shop review up in a few weeks for this shop.
So what about vet appointments? I typically will put vets under my Today section with a little paw sticker and a sticker of either a hedgehog or a hamster to show who is going to the vet.
(Please note I plan taking Gatsby to the vet twice a year. Once in the Spring for an annual checkup and then again in the fall because the school needs a note from the vet saying that he is healthy a maximum of three weeks before the school starts. Please take your animals to the vet at least once a year to get checked over so that if something does go wrong you already have communication and some sort of relationship with the vet.)
So if someone does get sick I will put it down in my little things with what time they need their medicine so that I’m able to keep track of this. I will also put alarms on my phone so that they get them at the same time every day.
As a side note I also keep a notebook with what treats I give my pets each day and I keep track of their weight each week in order to help catch problems before they arise.
So how do you keep track of your pets? Let me know down below!
See you soon,
Amanda
