Did you know that it’s National Pet Month right now? From 7th April until 7th May 2012, National Pet Month aims to promote the values of good pet ownership and of course the values of having a pet.
This got us thinking about how many of our Facebook and Twitter fans/followers sleep with their pets. We know a few of you do and we are even guilty of being slightly obsessed withphotos of pets sleeping with their owners too.
But as you are probably aware, there has been a number of studies which explore the dangers of pets sleeping with their owners. Here is an article which appeared in The Daily Mail last year: Don’t sleep with your pet, you may catch something (possibly bubonic plague).
Still, we also know that if an owner wants to sleep with their pet – they will. If this is you, then have a watch of this video below. It provides great tips to help owners minimise the risk of becoming ill by taking care of their pet.

Do you sleep with your pet? Which precautions do you take to make sure both pet and owner are kept healthy? Can you share any tips?
