Summer has arrived and with it also holidays for many peoples. Unfortunately, as every year, the problem of abandoning dogs and cats arises again in 2020.

In Italy every year 50 thousand dogs and 80 thousand cats are abandoned, which increase the number of strays, equal to about 900,000. A huge number.

80% of these are likely to suffer an accident, die of starvation or suffer abuse and only a small percentage find refuge in suitable structures made available by voluntary associations.

This sad phenomenon is repeated in the two periods that coincide with the summer holidays and those at the end of the year. Just between July and September, about 600 dogs and cats are abandoned every day. The inability to take care of your pets and to manage a trip with them is one of the most recurring reasons for this emergency.

Moreover, we are talking about law violation, punished with fines ranging from 1,000 to 10,000 euros and with arrest of up to one year.

Prevention in this sense is therefore essential in order to fully enjoy the holiday period without compromising the health of your animal or even incurring a criminal offense. Therefore, when booking the holidays, it is important to check that, both for the trip and in the structure that will host you, there are the appropriate equipment to welcome our pet. If this is not possible, in Italy for many years there have been a large number of specific pensions for dogs and cats, where the animal can spend the holidays away from home in peace.

I.P.S. (International Products and Services), also to raise awareness on this issue, has created PET AUTO ALERT, the thermometer designed to detect the temperature inside the car with useful messages for those who own dogs or cats.

PET AUTO ALERT, thanks to its durable and indestructible liquid crystal thermometer, indicates the temperature in the passenger compartment and at the same time provides indications to prevent your pet from suffering or being forgotten inside the car.

PET AUTO ALERT is a useful and 100% MADE IN ITALY tool.
