Suggestions
     -Buy a small bell of any type.  It should have an audible ring.  Suspend this from the pet's collar, visualizing the ring guarding the pet.  The ringing bell will automatically banish negativity as the pet moves.  A bell can also be hung from the pet's cage or in its bed.

     -On the back of a pet's tags and licenses, you can mark protective symbols and signs such as pentagrams.  You can also make a round metal tag of your own, scratch or carve mystic words or symbols on it and hang it with your pet's other tags.

     -For animals that must reside in cages or tanks, attach some protective object to their home.  Holed stones, quartz crystals, seashells or even tiny pieces of paper on which you've inscribed a spell of protection you wrote yourself.  You can also encircle the cage with pure white wool yarn or a cord that contains 9 knots.

     -A necklace of shells protects animals from the adverse effects of the evil eye and also helps them love you.  You might attach a small rounded shell to the animal's collar.

     -If your pet seems listless or out of sorts and NO MEDICAL PROBLEM has been diagnosed, you may want to try sprinkling salt in an unbroken circle (going  counterclockwise) around the creature.  If you can do this before the pet moves from the circle, it should be cured.

Remember that all of these spells require strong visualization of the protective force of the item or charm used
