Pets need mental stimulation just as much as physical exercise. A bored pet can become destructive or anxious. Here’s how to keep them entertained.
1. Signs Your Pet is Bored
🚫 Excessive barking or meowing.
🚫 Chewing on furniture or objects.
🚫 Digging holes in the yard.
2. How to Keep Pets Engaged

✔ Regular Playtime: Fetch, tug-of-war, or chase games.
✔ New Experiences: Walks in different locations or socializing with other pets.
3. Training as Mental Stimulation
✔ Teaching new tricks or commands keeps their mind active.
✔ Hide-and-seek with treats is a great way to challenge them.
Final Thoughts
