As warmer weather approaches, pet owners are seeking creative ways to keep their furry friends entertained without overheating. Home Bargains has introduced a pet-sized paddling pool that offers a 'fun and safe' solution for water-loving pets.
Affordable Pet Pool from Home Bargains
The discount retailer is stocking the My Pets Pet Paddling Pool, priced at just £5.99. This shallow, foldable pool is designed for garden use and is described as 'super easy to set up and store away.' Its shallow design helps ensure pet safety while they splash around.
The product description reads: 'Make a splash this summer with the My Pets Pet Paddling Pool! This fun, foldable blue pool is perfect for keeping your furry friends cool and entertained, and it’s super easy to set up and store away when the fun's done!'
It further states: 'A pet paddling pool is a small, shallow pool designed for pets such as dogs or cats to cool off and play in during hot weather. Pet owners can fill the pool with water to create a fun and safe environment for their pets to enjoy. Regular supervision is recommended to ensure the safety of pets while they are in the pool. After use, the pool can be emptied and cleaned for future use.'

For pets that prefer a gentler water experience, Home Bargains also offers the MyPets Summer Pet Sprinkler at £4.99. The sprinkler pad is designed to keep pets cool and entertained throughout the summer.
Additionally, the My Pets Summer Pet Canopy Bed is available for £12.99. This elevated bed, made from 100% polyester fabric, provides a breathable surface that keeps pets cool by allowing air to flow underneath, reducing heat buildup and keeping them off hot ground.
Pet Safety Tips for Hot Weather
The RSPCA advises pet owners to ensure their animals have access to shade, constant fresh water, and pet-safe sun cream on exposed skin. They also warn of increased risks from fleas, ticks, and flystrike during summer. More information can be found on the RSPCA website.
