In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Cats are like kids - they respond to schedules. Maintaining a routine is the first step to sleep training your cat. Establish a bedtime routine. Cats are social animals, and they crave attention and love from their owners. If possible, get up and go to bed at roughly the same time each night. This will help your cat adjust to your schedule, and they'll be more likely to rise and fall with you. Turn the lights off at a specific time. Darkness is a cue to cats that it's time to relax and cuddle up for bed. However, keep in mind that cats also love to hunt at night, so darkness by itself doesn't make cats sleepy. Cats thrive on schedule, and easily pick up on signs in regards to their owner's activities. If you sleep with the lights off, turn them off. If you turn the TV off at night, turn it off. If you turn on the fan, turn it on. If you listen to radio, listen to it. Create the same environment every time you go to bed. Your cat will recognize this environment, and understand that it's time to sleep. When a cat is fed affects their sleep schedule drastically. Oftentimes, if a cat is being particularly pesky at bedtime or early morning they're simply hungry. If you can change how and when you feed your cat, this can lead to more peaceful nights. Try feeding your cat shortly before bed. We're all more likely to sleep after we've had a nice meal. Some people find that if you feed your cat a half cup of dry or wet food shortly before bedtime, they'll be more likely to sleep through the night full and satisfied. Invest in an automatic feeder for morning meals. Automatic cat feeders, which can be set to release a handful of dry food at specific times, are available for purchase online and at many department stores and specialty pet stores. If your cat wakes you in the early hours of the morning wanting breakfast, an automatic feeder can help. Not to mention, cats are known for their sense of anticipation. If he knows breakfast is coming, he'll likely hang around the feeder early in the morning rather than making noise near the bedroom.
Summary: Set a sleep schedule and stick to it. Create the same environment every night. Change how you feed your cat.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: By keeping to a routine bedtime, you are effectively training your body and avoiding nights spent tossing and turning. Go to sleep at the same time every night. Aim for a time when you naturally start getting tired. Wake up at the same time every day. While it's tempting to get a few more hours of shut-eye on the weekends, this will throw off your sleep schedule and you may have difficulty falling asleep at the right time. You only need 20-30 minutes total of exercise each day to see a change in your sleep habits. While vigorous exercise is best, anything that gets you on your feet and moving is a great start. Choose an appropriate time to exercise. If you go for a run right before bed, chances are you'll be too wired to sleep. Give yourself a few hours to wind down before trying to sleep. If you're short on time, try breaking up your exercise throughout the day. Even choosing to take the stairs over an elevator can give you a quick workout. While it's comfortable and fun to hang out on your bed and watch movies on your laptop, the action can confuse your body. You want to train your body to get into sleep mode as soon as you climb into bed. If you want to do a relaxing activity before bed, such as reading or knitting, try going into another room with soft light.
Summary: Set a sleep schedule and stick to it. Exercise regularly. Use your bed for sleep or sex only. Try taking an over the counter medicine like Advil pm, or unisom. Try a herbal remedy like Valerian root or melatonin.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Parvo is extremely contagious, which is one reason it is such a difficult disease. Your dog can remain contagious for as long as 2 months. Make sure to isolate your infected dog from other dogs in the family if possible, and keep him away from public spaces while he is still contagious. Even vaccinated dogs can still get parvo, so it's best to keep all dogs separate. Parvo is mainly passed through feces and fluids passing from one dog to another. It can even be passed by your dog sniffing another dog. If you have other dogs in the house, make sure that your sick dog is using the bathroom in a different area from your other dogs, as your dogs can catch it from the sick dog's feces as long as 2 months after the symptoms have passed. A dog's temperature usually runs between 101 and 102.5 degrees Fahrenheit. Use a dog's rectal thermometer to take your dog's temperature. Add petroleum jelly to the end. You can use another type of oil, such as baby oil, if you don't have have petroleum jelly. Insert the thermometer into the anus, going in about an inch. Go slowly, and be gentle. Digital thermometers should give you a reading in less than a minute. If your dog is too cold, you may need to warm fluids before giving them under the skin. You may also need to provide a heating pad. Just be sure to provide protection from the heating pad, as your puppy could be burned if he is directly on it. Use a thick towel or blanket between the dog and the heating pad. Once your dog has stopped vomiting and shows an interest in food, start with bland food. Skip the kibble for now. Instead, try very lean ground beef boiled with rice (be sure to skim off any fat) or cottage cheese. Yogurt is also a good option. Ask your vet for other options. Mix 30 parts of water with 1 part bleach. Use that mixture to sanitize hard surfaces in your home, especially ones where your dog has been. That will kill the virus but only on hard surfaces. For other areas, such as carpet and couches, wipe as clean as possible, and then get them steam cleaned. You might also consider quaternary ammonia for cleaning soft surfaces. For outdoor areas, the best you can do is pick up any of your dog's feces and water the yard a bit more often. The dilution can help lower the amount of virus in your yard over time, and the sun will also kill some of it. Once your dog has stopped showing symptoms, give him a bath with antibacterial shampoo. Repeat in a week. Make sure to let the shampoo sit for at least 5 minutes so it can work. Also, ensure you keep your dog warm while bathing by using warm water and warm towels when he gets out of the bathtub.
Summary:
Isolate your dog. Check your dog's temperature. Feed your dog bland food. Disinfect the your home. Bathe your dog.
