I just saw a press release today that announced a new web site launched by SeaRay and Purina pet food titled Paws - Pets and Water Safety - http://www.petandwatersafety.com/index.html .
The site is dedicated to sharing water safety tips for when you take you 4 footed pals boating. It very inclusively lists cats (and notes that they should have a life jacket, particularly if they will be going into the water), as I'm sure that there are plenty of ships cats out there. Being a Dog Person myself, it was interesting to see their tips, which go way beyond the basic life jackets. It's worth a visit if you take your pup (or cat I suppose) out on the boat, whether it's for a paddle down the slough, or a month of cruising. Our black lab Makai loves the water. Whether it is a water bowl, puddle or lake, if it is wet, she'll be in it. She's a great swimmer, but even so, we have a life jacket for her when we go out as she isn't always the best judge of when to call it quits and climb back in the boat. We haven't gone as far as the brimmed hat or dog sun glasses they suggest for protection against the sun, but it would probably be a great idea if she were a little more sedate.
Stop by the site and see what you think, it's a nice service.
