Prevent your furry friends from getting too hot when temperatures start to soar.
Summer is just around the corner, folks, and sun safety is absolutely crucial.

Just as much as this applies to you, it also goes for your four-legged friends, too! From overheating and dehydration to burnt paws and heat stroke, too much sun can make them unwell and uncomfortable.
While providing them with air conditioning and plenty of water is a given, that's not all. The VASLON Pet Cooling Mat from Amazon Canada is a great and easy way to keep your pets cool and comfortable on scorching hot days — and it rings in at under $20. Scroll below to read more about it.

The Details

The machine-washable and lightweight blanket can be used in the car, outside, on the floor or on top of furniture to help keep your pet comfortable for up to three hours.
