Made With Love from Your Pet Owners

 
 
Sometimes store bought toys and accessories aren’t enough. You may find yourself in a local pet shop wondering about searching for the right parrot toy but, it seems like everything in there just doesn’t fit what is in mind. The perfect branch to fit into your lizard terrarium seems useless. Why not make or find it yourself?
                                                         
There are tons of creative ideas that can be done to make your pet his or her next toy or accessory. Many times most get into the daily hustle and bustle of going to the pet shop and searching for the perfect item for their pet. Often times it just seems easier to just buy it and take it home. Wouldn’t it buy more “authentic” if it was either made or found by you?

Reptile lovers out there, most things that you can find in nature can be sanitized and placed into terrariums. One thing to keep in mind when choosing an item is make sure the area it is found hasn’t been sprayed with pesticides or any other chemicals. After that then place the item in a hot bath and add a cup of bleach for an hour. Once that is finished wrap the item in aluminum foil and bake it in the oven on 300 F for an hour. This should be sanitized enough to keep herps safe. (http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100512161554AACvJPc)
