As an independent adult living in their 20s, having a cute and lovely dog is essential because you appreciate their presence and enjoy every moment. Aside from that, taking care of them sometimes feels exciting, assuming you never get tired of buying animal nutraceuticals or going to the vet clinic for consultations.
Since we are talking about products that require extra care and safety, let me share what I do to keep my supplements and other personal care products in good condition. You might want to follow them too, for the sake of your pet.
#1: KEEPING SUPPLY STABLE AND EFFICIENT
I hate hoarding with a burning passion. Excuse the exaggeration, but instead of getting rid of the worries or trying to convince yourself that running out of supplies is now impossible, you are only doing more harm than good by increasing the possibility of wasting products. With this, I never did that nor bought more than intended, but I tried to keep the supply stable and efficient by having the right amount of goods. Also, pet supplements in Singapore have an expiration date, so keep that in mind.
#2: HAVING A SAFE AND SECURE STORAGE SPACE
Whether it is a cabinet above your kitchen, a plastic box inside the shelf, or a secure section of your closet, always have a safe and secure storage space for your animal nutraceuticals and other products to keep their condition. Not only that but if you have children and other animals who might accidentally ingest these things, keeping them away from reach is a no-brainer. (Tip: There are many options for this, and if you can secure and reach them in no time, you are in good hands.)
#3: KEEPING TABS ON EXPIRY AND IMPORTANT DATES
Following storage instructions is the way to go, but if you forget expiration dates and other important time-sensitive matters, you might be doing more harm than good. First, take note of when you bought a particular item and list the relevant information on a paper or your mobile notes application. There, you can see all of them in one click or from your bag. The second tip is to put labels so you can read easier. For instance, put a larger sticker that says the expiration date because the one printed on the label is small.
#4: AVOIDING MIXING WITH OTHER PRODUCTS
Keep the animal nutraceuticals away from the cabinet where you store the salt & pepper shakers and other spices or where you keep insecticides. I never mixed these animal care items with other products because it would have only confused me. There is also a possibility of giving my lovely furbaby the wrong product during instances such as going home drunk or when I am a bit dazed from work. In short, dedicate a space or section of the house for these products and arrange everything according to categories.
