Prevent Pet Poisoning
Thousands of pets die every year
from accidental poisoning. Your
home may look safe to you, but you
don’t go around exploring it with
your nose and mouth.
Pets, particularly kittens and
puppies, will taste whatever is
within reach, especially when they
are left alone and are bored. Pets
will also lick their paws after
having walked through sprayed or
wet areas.
The following are common
poisoners: plants, antifreeze, oil,
lubricants, fuel, tar, paints,
cleansers, bleaches, polishes,
fertilizers, insecticides, rodent
poisons, solvents, glue,
photographic chemicals, and
medicines.
Antifreeze causes many pet
poisonings because we dram it out
of the car into a shallow pan on the
ground. Cats and dogs may drink it
because of the sweet flavor. Or
they may walk through it and lick
their paws.
Toilet bowls with fresheners in
them can also be dangerous.

dangerous chemicals out of the
path of your pets.
If you suspect your pet has
ingested poison, save any vomited
material and take the animal to
your veterinarian immediately.
Keep your pet warm by wrapping
it in a blanket, and keep its head
lowered. If the poison is a
corrosive acid or alkaline, such as
many household disinfectants, or a
petroleum product, do not induce
vomiting.
How To Raise a Child
Without Going Broke
Young families want the best life
can offer their children, but this
takes money. Lots of money. On
the average, children bom this
year will cost their parents well
over $125,000 before they reach 18
years of age. But there are many
ways to give children rewarding
experiences without going broke.
Here are a few points to con
sider;
1. Have a healthy attitude about
money; encourage ways of lear
ning, enjoying people and doing
activities without it. Reinforce this
attitude by doing things together
that do not cost money. Read clothes, and many other household for community resources such as
