In many Spanish‑speaking countries pets are treated as family members, so forgetting their medication can be seen as neglectful. Using a gentle reminder like this shows care and responsibility. In informal contexts, you can drop the reflexive pronoun and say 'No olvides la medicina de tu mascota', but the reflexive form adds a personal touch.
