About the Event
Pets can provide an increased sense of purpose, help to reduce stress and encourage physical activity. But they can become more challenging to care for when strength, balance and mobility begin to fade. In this virtual workshop, you'll learn tips for taking care of your fur family as you age, as well as recommendations on caring for an aging pet.
Topics will include:
- Adaptive pet equipment such as hands-free leashes
- Easy-feed pet bowls and long-handled scoops
- Home safety considerations like avoiding falls with a pet in the house
We’ll also cover steps you can take in your estate planning to protect your pets, how to locate pet-friendly housing and special holiday-related tips to keep your pets safe and home festive!
Every month, AARP California hosts this virtual series highlighting a range of topics on healthy aging, livable communities and how to thrive in an age-friendly lifestyle.
