A Great Christmas Present Idea

For many elderly people, their pet is their lifeline. A companion animal is just that - a companion and for many of our elderly friends and family members, their pets help stave off loneliness, reduce stress and prolong life. So that's why I wanted to pass along a unique idea for the elderly pet lover on your Christmas list.

I read today about a woman who gave her elderly grandmother a tremendous and useful gift for Christmas - she offered to take care of her veterinary bills for the coming year. Now her grandmother's dog is healthy, but still even healthy dogs need immunizations and a vet visit for small problems every now and again.

Her reason for giving her grandmother this unusual but caring gift - her grandmother had all the things she needed. So instead of getting her one more nightgown or knick knack she didn't really want or need, she gave her something that really mattered. Pets can be expensive - from food to grooming to vet care. So if you've got a pet lover on your list, a gift certificate for the pet store or his/her vet would make a great gift this holiday season.
