It's The Holiday Season...and my pet ate what?!!
It's that special time of year again, time for the family to gather and give thanks. It's also the time of year that the family pet gives thanks for all the wonderful smells and leftovers sitting on the kitchen counter. The holidays can be a wonderful time for you and your pets and to keep everyone safe and healthy we have a list from avma.org with some holiday tips:
7 things you can do to make the holidays safer for your pet
• Keep people food out of the reach of your pet and ask your guests to do the same;
• Make sure your pet doesn't have any access to treats, especially those containing chocolate, xylitol, grapes/raisins, onions or other toxic foods;
• Don't leave your pet alone in the room with lit candles, a decorated tree or potpourri;
• Keep holiday plants (especially holly, mistletoe and lillies) out of reach of pets;
• Consider leaving the tinsel off your tree if you have a cat;
• Secure your Christmas tree to keep it from falling over if your dog bumps it or your cat climbs it; hanging lemon-scented car air fresheners in the tree may deter your cat from climbing it;
• If your pet is excitable or scared when you have company, consider putting your pet in another room with some of his/her toys, a comfortable bed, etc. or providing a safe place for your pet to escape the excitement (such as a kennel, crate, perching place, scratching post shelf or hiding place)
