Important to note: Fresh Air Litter categorically contains No Dust. “Fine particles” may appear in the air from time to time during the initial pour or when moisture from your cat’s urine makes contact with the litter.

Fine particles of Fresh Air Litter are pure Zeolite, which is an inert volcanic mineral that is 100% safe for your family and pet.

Sandy grew up in western PA, near Pittsburgh, and attended college at Clarion University of Pennsylvania. While at Clarion, Sandy obtained a Bachelor of Science degree, with a major in Finance.

After college, Sandy moved to New Jersey and took a position with an investment-banking firm with a grand plan to eventually work on Wall Street.

Sandy worked in several other positions within the financial field but somehow never felt a real passion for it. Transitioning to a new career path, Sandy managed and was a wholesale buyer for an independent garden center in New Jersey for 5 years, eventually landing in New York city in the pet industry, working as a General Manager and east coast trainer for Unleashed by Petco.

“I have always loved animals and felt right at home in this new field. I proudly opened the east coast flagship store for Unleashed and trained new managers and associates for other newly opening stores”.

It is through Unleashed, that Sandy met our CEO Tobi Skovron and it was Tobi’s energy and pure enthusiasm for his products and in what he was doing that Sandy admired.

“I initially met Tobi at the grand opening of the Unleshed by Petco stores in New York City. We crossed paths again about 2 years ago in San Diego, where I had been transferred through Petco. We kept in contact with me always asking Tobi if there was anyway I could be involved in the world of Pet Loo. Lucky for me, the timing was right and eventually he said “yes” and so here I am today!!”

“As CEO I am thrilled to have Sandy as the newest team member of Pup-Pee Solutions. She brings with her a diverse business background from finance to marketing; retail operations to providing stellar customer service; and a true passion for offering top-notch pet products. I believe Sandy will be a big part of the Pet Loo future” Said Skovron.

Fresh Air Litter is a scientific breakthrough in odor elimination technology

LOS ANGELES (July 5, 2012) – Bacteria and its odor control is one of the biggest concerns cat owners have when it comes to litter. While other litters can minimize the smell of ammonia, none actively deal with the true source of the problem – bacteria. Recognizing a void in the marketplace, Pet Loo developed the world’s first and only Triple Action Odor & Bacteria eliminating litter. Fresh Air Litter, which will hit shelves this summer, boasts a triple action odor control that eliminates fecal odor, urine odor and odor-causing bacteria.

Most litters on the market today clump to prevent urine sinking to the bottom of the cat litter box. Fresh Air Litter has a Patented Odor Eliminating Pad™ that prevents bacteria growth in the litter box and does not require any removal of clumps to remain pristine, providing a maintenance free litter solution that lasts two months.

“After conducting two years worth of consumer testing, Pet Loo is proud to unveil our new Fresh Air Litter with a patented technology and unparalleled bacteria and odor control in the market,” said Tobi Skovron, CEO and Founder of Pet Loo. “While it looks and feels like clay, Fresh Air is a non-clay litter eliminates urine at the molecular level by trapping ammonia and converting it into nitrogen and water which is evaporated, significantly reducing health risks to you, your cat and your family.”

In addition to being the most powerful and effective odor control cat litter on the market, Fresh Air Litter offers the following benefits:

• A proprietary syrup that coats the litter to minimize dust
• Categorically contains no silica dust
• The world’s first litter containing a patented carbon pad
• Granular sized litter designed specifically to minimize tracking
• Non-clumping so only solid waste removal is required (no more scooping clumps!)
• Made from an all natural inert mineral that is 100% safe (even if ingested accidently by the pet)
• Not only is Fresh Air Litter so advanced that it can do all of this, but it also weighs less, costs less and lasts twice as long!

Pet Loo is widely known for its innovative “Backyard in a Box” patented pet toilet, which has recently been featured in major national media outlets such as The Chicago Tribune, CNN, CNBC.com and USA Today, among many others. The company is now actively expanding its offerings to become a complete pet waste management manufacturer with a core value for innovative, eco-friendly technology.

Precautionary measures need to be taken to ensure the well-being of pets during emergencies, just like humans. As we have seen in the past, many household pets become strays due to their owner’s inability to properly shelter them during storms – all due to a lack of preparedness. There are simple steps you can take before a storm is pending, that will ensure your pet is safe and secure during an emergency. Below, please find a series of tips on this topic that was compiled with the help from Heidi Ganahl, CEO and Founder of Camp Bow Wow, and Tobi Skovron, CEO and Founder of The Pet Loo.

1. Do your research before it is necessary – Many evacuation shelters are NOT pet friendly; find shelters nearby before a storm occurs in which both you and your pet are welcome. Also search out hotels along your evacuation route that are pet friendly.

2. Prepare your pet for departure – Don’t feed your pet at least two hours before departure. Small amounts of water can be given before the trip. If possible, put ice cubes in the water tray attached to the inside of your pet’s travel case – water will spill! They can lick the ice cube for water.

3. Like owner, like pet – If you’re going to need it during an emergency, chances are your pet will need it as well. Important documents pertaining to vaccinations or medications will be crucial in making sure your pet can stay at a shelter. These documents will help you find the proper shelter or hotel in case of evacuation.

4. Think ahead – Even when you first get your pet, getting a microchip could be the difference between keeping him/her safe and making them a stray. Microchips allow for veterinarians to scan lost animals to determine their identity so that they are safely returned home. Make sure you include your local animal shelter’s number in your list of emergency numbers. They might be able to provide information concerning pets during a disaster.

5. Pack necessities for up to a week – Take pet food, bottled water, medications, veterinary records, cat litter/pan, manual can opener, food dishes, first aid kit and other supplies with you in case they’re not available later. Water for your pet is crucial, so plan on enough. Never allow Fido to drink water immediately after a storm as chemicals and bacteria could be abundant in tap water. If you feed dry food, it is good to have an extra bag of food on hand.

6. Portable potties or indoor potties – Particularly with the stronger category storms, it is NOT safe to let your dogs or cats out to go potty. Reasons for this include: storm surges (walls of water up to 20 feet high), winds in excess of 74 mph (for the weakest hurricanes), inland flooding and power lines down. Keeping your pet inside and having an indoor toilet solution for dogs and cats with the Pet Loo means you have one less dangerous element to worry about during a storm. While traveling in the car, using a Pet Loo with its Pee-Pod will absorb urine and turn a liquid into a non-odorous, solidified gel that will hold at least 100 times its weight in liquids. This will also prevent sloshing of urine in the catch basin while the vehicle is in motion.

7. Provide your pet with a home away from home – Like people, pets tend to become stressed when their safety is at risk. Bring their favorite toys, always have a leash and collar on hand for their safety, and a comfortable bed or cage for proper security. If your pet is prone to anxiety, prepare him/her with a natural stress-relieving medication or spray to help ease them in times of emergency.

8. I.C.E – No, not the frozen kind – it stands for “In Case of Emergency.” If your pet is lost or runs away during an emergency, bring information that will help others find him/her like recent photos of your pet, behavioral characteristics or traits. These can help others identify your pet and return them safely to you.

9. Ease pets back home – Don’t allow Fido to run back into your home or even your neighborhood once you and your family have returned. Your once familiar home could be disheveled and/or changed, and this can potentially disorient and stress your pet. Keep your pet on a leash and safely ease him/her back home. Make sure they are not eating or picking up anything that could potentially be dangerous, such as downed wires or water that could be contaminated.

This week is National Hurricane Preparedness Week, with the NOAA proclaiming the official hurricane season in the Atlantic beginning June 1 and the Eastern Pacific hurricane season already underway. With both seasons in effect until November 30, this is a critical time for pet owners to mark their checklist and get supplies. In the event of a hurricane, it is NOT safe to let your pets out to go potty. Reasons for this include: storm surges (walls of water up to 20 feet high), winds in excess of 74 mph, inland flooding and down power lines.

If you’re caught in a storm and can’t take your pet outside, having an indoor toilet solution such as the Pet Loo is a must. Follow these steps to prepare your pet for using the new indoor potty solution:

• Begin training your pet to go potty on a designated area indoors, such as the Pet Loo. Pets respond to surface training, so the Pet Loo’s grass surface will make training easier by reminding them of the outdoors. Using repetition and praise will condition them that if not let outside, this is the spot where they should go.
• To speed up training, try using an attractant on the indoor potty’s surface. Skip To My Loo is a spray that mimics urine and is designed to attract and encourage your pet to relieve itself in an area designated by you.
• Move your indoor potty to the car and practice training there as well in case you need to evacuate.

In the event you do need to evacuate your home, follow these tips to prepare your pet for departure:

• Don’t feed your pet at least two hours before departure. Small amounts of water can be given before the trip. If possible, put ice cubes in the water tray attached to the inside of your pet’s travel case – water will spill!
• Pack a portable potty in the car. The Pet Loo’s Pee-Pod will absorb urine and turn liquids into a non-odorous, solidified gel that can hold at least 100 times its weight in liquids. This will also prevent sloshing of urine in the potty while the vehicle is in motion.
• Identify a shelter now. For public health reasons, many emergency shelters cannot accept pets. Find out which hotels/motels in your area allow pets. Include your local animal shelter’s number in your list of emergency numbers, as they might be able to provide information concerning pets during a disaster.
• Make sure identification tags are up-to-date and securely fastened to your pet’s collar. If possible, attach the address and/or phone number of your evacuation site. If your pet gets lost, his tag is his ticket home.
• Pack a “pet survival” kit which could be easily deployed if disaster hits. Include pet food, bottled water, medications, veterinary records, cat litter/pan, manual can opener, food dishes, a first aid kit and other supplies in case they’re not available later.

·         Check airline policies and requirements – Each airline has different policies so always check before you book a ticket. Ask the following questions: Does the airline allow you to take small animals in the cabin? If not, do they have any restrictions or blackout periods for transporting animal in the cargo cabin? Are there any pet health or immunization requirements? What type of pet carriers does the airline require? Websites like PetRelocation.com can help you research the best airlines and locate pet-friendly hotels.

·         Have your veterinarian examine your pet – Most airlines require health certificates, so having your vet do a thorough examination will allow you to gather the most up-to-date medical records and also determine if your pet will need any sedatives during travel.

·         Choose appropriate safety travel products – With the rise in pet-friendly travel safety gear, there are many different products for pet owners to choose from today. In addition to standard travel carriers, you can also find padded seat belt harnesses and booster seats for pets. Determine which products are best for your pet and mode of transportation (your veterinarian or local pet retailer can help you with this decision).

·         Prepare your pet for departure – Whether traveling by air or land, it’s best to exercise your pet a couple of hours before departure to help relax and tire them out. Additionally, don’t feed your pet at least two hours before departure. Small amounts of water can be given before the trip. If possible, put ice cubes in the water tray attached to the inside of your pet’s travel case – water will spill!

·         Portable Potties  – When traveling, you might not always have immediate access to pet-friendly ‘bathroom’ facilities. If you’re taking the RV on a long road trip, or spending an afternoon aboard a boat with your furry friend, indoor pet potties like The Pet Loo offer a compact, hygienic and environmentally-friendly toilet solution. The synthetic grass used for The Pet Loo will remind your dog of the outdoors, so you don’t have to worry about training your dog to go on pee pads/newspaper (or stocking up on them before your trip). In addition to reducing waste and airborne odors associated with pee pads/newspaper, The Pet Loo uses a revolutionary Pee-Pod which absorbs urine and turns it into a solidified gel, allowing The Pet Loo to hold at least 100 times its weight in liquids and also prevent any sloshing while you’re on the go.

Company powers up for new product launch with the addition of titan David Charlson

Los Angeles (May 2, 2012) – With a 53 percent sales increase in the past year and a new product on the horizon, Pet Loo has recruited David Charlson to serve as President of Sales – North America starting May 1. Charlson will be instrumental in bringing Pet Loo’s new, innovative cat litter, Fresh Air, to shelves this summer.

In addition to more than 20 years of sales experience, Charlson has built a reputation as a cat litter industry expert over the past few years, with his sales and leadership skills playing a major contributing factor to the success and subsequent acquisition of Purr & Simple All-Natural Cat litter by major pet food company. Through Charlson’s efforts, Purr & Simple cat litter was being sold by more than 31 distributors domestically and in more than 12 foreign countries in just two years time.

“Charlson’s experience speaks for itself,” says Tobi Skovron, CEO and Founder of Pet Loo. “His background in sales, coupled with his experience in the pet litter industry, will be a driving force in the successful launch of our new cat litter this year.”

Initially, Charlson was brought on as a consultant to ensure that Pet Loo’s newest revolutionary cat litter met the high standards that the company demands from all of its products. Charlson was so impressed with the litter, in addition to Pet Loo’s brand and culture, that he expressed interest in joining then team on a more permanent basis.

“I was so blown away by the quality of the products and the culture of honor and respect that permeated every aspect of how Skovron and team Pet Loo operates,” said Charlson, when asked why he decided to join the company.

Pet Loo is widely known for its innovative “Backyard in a Box” patented pet toilet, which has recently been featured in major national media outlets such as The Chicago Tribune, CNN, CNBC.com and USA Today, among many others.
