Season’s Greetings!!
Can it be that the Holidays are once again upon us?
While this can be a time of excitement, fellowship, and indulgence for humans, pets can sometimes get stressed with all of the extra commotion. The following is a list of things you can do to keep your pet(s) safe.
- Provide your pet(s) with a safe place out from underfoot. Kennels and kid/pet gates can be useful in designating boundaries.
- Invest in covered trash cans and keep food out of reach of clever counter surfing pets. Chocolate, coffee, alcohol, xylitol, grapes, raisin, currents, macadamia nuts, bones and excessive fats like butter and shortening can all be toxic or harmful to pets.
- Keep decorations safe and appropriate for the type of pet you have. Tinsel, candles, electrical cords, glass ornaments, and many of the seasonal holiday plants can be hazardous to pets.
- Additionally, be conscientious about the outdoor weather conditions if your pets need to stay outside. Adequate shelter and access to unfrozen water are essential.
Happy Holidays!
