ATTENDEES were able to take home special kibbles from Royal Canin. Note, not all kibble is created equal, and what your pet eats can make a huge difference in their growth and well-being.

Bringing home a new puppy or kitten? Say hello to limitless cuddles, zoomies and the irresistible puppy-dog look (or the cat’s disapproving but charming side-eye). But let’s be honest — it’s more than just adorable selfies and playing. Raising a fur baby has important responsibilities, such as selecting the correct kibble and ensuring that your favorite sneakers do not become chew toys.
To help newbies navigate the Start-of-Life stage, Royal Canin held Firsts to Remember, a puppy and kitten shower for soon-to-be fur mothers and dads. The event, held at The Mess Hall in Makati City, was jam-packed with professional advice, hands-on activities and pet parenting tips. Attendees learned everything from pet-proofing their houses to creating the ideal nutrition plan from partners such as Pet Lovers Centre, The Cat Clinic and Vets in Practice.
First, create a nice little nook that screams pet paradise. Your new pet companion deserves a comfortable area to call their own.
Veterinary visits are non-negotiable. To maintain good health, your pet should get regular check-ups, vaccines and parasite prevention. Fortunately for you, Royal Canin’s Take Your Pet To The Vet program makes it simple to keep track of their health so they may thrive.
Now, let’s talk about food. Not all kibble is created equal, and what your pet eats can make a huge difference in their growth and well-being. Royal Canin’s tailored nutrition ensures they get the right balance of nutrients, whether they’re a tiny teacup pup or a fluffy, soon-to-be majestic feline.
When it comes to teaching fundamental commands, treats, belly rubs and rewards are extremely effective. Socialization is equally vital; exposing your pet to new situations from an early age helps them develop into confident, well-adjusted companions.
Pet-proofing your home is essential; think of it as baby-proofing, but for a four-legged troublemaker. Hide those electrical wires, keep dangerous plants out of reach and provide your pet with a safe haven to escape to when they need a respite from the commotion.
And finally, make time to bond. Play, cuddle, go on little adventures — whatever makes your pet’s tail wag or their whiskers twitch with happiness. Interactive toys and brain games keep them sharp, but nothing beats quality time with their favorite human.
Royal Canin provides specialized nutrition to help your pet grow and thrive at every stage of their life. Royal Canin Starter Mother & Babydog, X-Small Puppy, Mini Puppy, Maxi Puppy and Medium Puppy give puppies with critical nutrients for optimal growth. Royal Canin Mother & Babycat, Kitten and Kitten Sterilised give kittens a healthy start. Furthermore, Royal Canin provides customized meals for your pure-breed puppy and kitten because each breed has different requirements. Top options are for popular breeds like Shih Tzu Puppy, Poodle Puppy, Persian Kitten and British Shorthair Kitten. By selecting Royal Canin, you are giving your pet a solid foundation for a long and healthy life from the start.
