PET TIP: The temperature in a car can soar to deadly temperatures in a vey short time. Popping into the store is not an option with pets in the car as you may find yourself in the slowest line up. Leave them at home in comfort. They may like to go, but would you ever forgive yourself if something tragic happened?
