As our planet warms, summertime temperatures and humidity are constantly reaching all time highs. Although that may be good news for your tan, it can be hazardous to the health of cats, dogs and other household pets. Because pets cannot sweat to cool themselves down, panting helps them to maintain their normal body temperature. Pets need a cool place to stay when the summer temperatures soar, along with access to cool, clean water. But without those two vital necessities, no amount of panting will prevent any pet from overheating. When a dog or cat loses the ability to regulate their body temperature, they could suffer from a heat stroke, brain damage and possibly death.

If your pet experiences heat stroke, immediately remove them from the heat and increase ventilation and air flow. Frequently apply cool water compresses to the pet. Do not use ice because it will cause the blood vessels to naturally constrict, decreasing the pet's ability to cool down. Give water to the pet, but do not force it to drink. To prevent this from happening to your pet, follow these tips for protection from the heat.

Vehicles
If you are going to run errands during the heat of the summer day, leave your pet at home. Even if you park your vehicle in the shade with the windows down, temperatures inside your car can still reach up to 120 degrees.

Beach or Pool
What pet owner doesn't love watching their dog charge the ocean at a full sprint? (Unfortunately, I don't know too many feline lovers who have experienced the same joy.) It is completely safe to take your pet to the beach or pool, but be sure to provide ample shade for pets and rinse dogs off after being in salt water. While at a pool, remember that the heat and sunlight can be very intense and fatiguing to pets so never leave them unattended.

Road Trips
If you take a pet on a long road trip, keep it hydrated and make frequent stops for walking and using the bathroom.

Exercise
During summer exercise, the body temperature rises faster than heat is dissipated. Be sure to cut back on exercise during the heat of the day and limit exercise to the early morning or late evening.

Vornado Room Fans

Even temperatures inside the home can reach uncomfortable levels during the heat of the summer day. Unfortunately, even homes with central heat and air conditioning systems might need help regulating a comfortable temperature throughout every room. Unlike ordinary fans, Vornado air circulators don't just blow air. Instead, they produce true whole-room air circulation using exclusive Vornado Vortex Technology. So rather than being in an ordinary fan's direct airflow, Vortex technology effectively distributes air throughout the entire room for even temperature and circulation. This translates into year round energy savings by working with your heating and cooling systems

Vornado's entire line of circulators feature whisper quiet operation and removable grills for convenient cleaning. Combining the proven reliability of evaporative and ultrasonic humidification with Vornado's signature Vortex Technology results in a uniquely effective means of creating a comfortable living space.
