Setting Up Your Pet’s Home? Keep These 4 Things in Mind

Are you worried about the best position for your pet’s home? Here are some things that you can consider–

1. Say No to South

Avoid the southern Direction (South East and South West) while building a home or sleeping space for your pet. According to Vaastu, these corners may make your pet feel restless or unhealthy.

Instead opt for North, East or West directions– These corners will ensure that your pet is well-behaved and cheerful at all times. 

This direction is especially important if you are planning to get a Cat or a dog for your home.

2. Elements Come First

Before you choose a position to set up your bird enclosure or cat’s cushion, ensure that the space is well-ventilated and naturally lit.

Animals are happiest when they can eat, breathe and sleep well– natural lighting and ventilation will take care of half of your job. Pay attention to the micro-climates inside your home. You don’t want your pet suffering from excess heat or cold– that will harm them in the longer run.

3. Avoid Open Windows and Balconies

Your pets may not be as conscious about open windows and doors as much as you are. To avoid the terror of your pet cat or dog jumping off a height, ensure that all windows and doors are covered with protective nets.

Consider babyproofing your home in general before you bring home a pet.

4. Talk to a Few Pet Owners that You Know

If you’ve never raised a pet before– taking care of a pet can be a huge responsibility. 

Just so that you aren’t caught off guard by the responsibilities—consult your friends who’ve had pets. Even consider visiting the local veterinary doctor for guidance.

Vastu Animals for Your Home: Pet-Specific Vastu Guidelines

Here are some Animal specific Vastu guidelines you must follow while keeping a pet animal in your home.

1. Dog Vaastu Shastra: The Best position for Your Pet Dog’s Kennel

Perhaps the most loyal and protective among all pets, Dogs are amazing home companions.

The human’s best friend can also retrieve the best fortunes and Vaastu benefits. 

If you're building a dog cage or kennel, install the kennel closer to your home’s entrance. 

In addition to protecting your home from invaders, this will ensure that your pet gets socialisation opportunities– making way for a happier, healthier, well-behaved pet.

Have the kennel closer to the north corner of your home. This corner is considered more Vastu-positive.

2. Fishes for Vastu: The Best position for your Aquarium

Fishes are auspicious according to Vastu and Feng Shui. 

If you decide to get pet fish for your home, ensure that your aquarium is in the northeast corner.  An aquarium in the northeast corner of your home is associated with a longer and healthier life.

3. Best position for Keeping Pet Birds.

Generally, it is considered cruel to keep birds in cages and so it could result in negative vaastu. So if you were to keep birds, ensure that you keep them in a large enough enclosure where they can fly around, feed and rest.

Parrots, budgerigars and lovebirds are good for your home as long as you consider your spatial, and budgetary limitations– any of these birds can shower your home with good vaastu.

Keep the enclosure in a place which has natural light and air circulation.

Install an earthen bowl with drinking water in the southeast corner of your bird enclosure.

4. Vaastu Consideration for Pet Cows, Horses and Rabbits

Cows

The cow is considered the mata(mother) as per the Sanatana Dharma. The presence of cows in your home can end grief and sadness.

Horses

These animals symbolise strength, independence and freedom. Both Vaastu and feng shui attribute horses to the ability to bring success into one’s life. 

Rabbit

Rabbits symbolise prosperity and peace. Their energies assist in the healing of thyroid-related ailments. However, avoid rabbit cages as they can be Vaastu Dosha— avoid small tight enclosures and you are good to go!

Be it a horse, cow or rabbit, ensure that the animal enclosure is positioned either in the Northwest or East direction.

Remember, animals you see are nature's gift to humans— any time you spot an animal, remember this and use the occasion to practise gratitude for your life.
