☀ How to Keep Your Pet Cool and Safe During Summer in Egypt
Egyptian summers can be intense — and just like us, our pets feel the heat too. From soaring temperatures in Cairo to the dry air in Giza, keeping your cat or dog cool and safe is essential to avoid overheating, dehydration, and even heatstroke.
In this blog, we’ll share expert summer pet care tips, essential products to help with heat safety for pets, and how you can maintain your pet’s hydration and comfort all season long.

🌡 Why Summer Heat Can Be Dangerous for Pets
Unlike humans, pets can’t sweat through their skin. They rely on panting and limited sweat glands (like those on their paw pads) to regulate temperature.
This makes pets highly vulnerable to:
- Heat exhaustion
- Dehydration
- Burns from hot surfaces
- Heatstroke, which can be fatal if not treated quickly

❗ Always take your pet with you or leave them safely at home.
