How to take care of your small mammals in case your Air-Conditioning breaks down
- Move all cages and tanks away from direct sunlight.
- Get an extra water bottle for each tank or cage, and keep one in your fridge. Switch the bottles out when they get warm throughout the day.
- Freeze some soda/water bottles and place them in the tank or cage so that your small animals have a cool place to sleep. (When you remove the bottles from the freezer, let them sit out a minute or two until the frost on the outside melts. Your pets will lick the bottles and their tongue may get stuck if the outside is still too cold).
- Remove any exercise wheels from the cage to keep small pets from over-exerting themselves
