In hot weather, a car's interior can become deadly for your pet. Even when the car is parked in the shade, the temperature inside quickly rises, threatening the animal with overheating, dehydration, or even death. This was reported by the press service of the Kyiv City State Administration, writes UNN.
On hot days, a car's interior can turn into a trap for your pet. Even in the shade, the temperature inside the car rises rapidly. This can lead to overheating, dehydration, or even death of the animal.
Most animals are unable to cool down effectively in a stuffy space, as thermoregulation occurs through accelerated breathing, which does not work in a scorching car.
Punishment for abandoning an animal:
- fine – from UAH 3,400 to UAH 5,950;
- in more severe cases – restriction or deprivation of liberty for up to 3 years;
- possible confiscation of the animal.
It is noted that drinking fountains for animals have been installed in Kyiv's parks and squares. They will operate until the end of October.
