Tip animal companians during winter

If you live in a climate where there is snow, or if salt is put on the sidewalks or roads to avoid slipping on ice, please remove the snow and salt from their paws immediately upon coming into the house. A cloth dipped in warm water will be very soothing for them, and then please make sure your sweet animal companion is nice and warm.
