Tips for your pet's holiday health care When you're decking the halls this holiday season, keep in mind the safety of household pets. Sug- gestions for keeping pets safe and healthy include: Pet-proof Decorating Pets find holiday trimmings ir- resistible, so be extra careful in placing decorations. e Fasten the Christmas tree toa wall or secure it another way to prevent the cat or dog from knock- ing it over. e Hang breakables, tinsel, or other tempting decorations well out of paw’s reach. Tinsel, ribbon, string, and ornament hangers are especially dangerous for pets to chew on. » Make sure pets don't play with or chew on electric cords. e Place holiday plants out of pet's reach. Many seasonal plants are poisonous, including mistle- toe, holly, and poinsettias. Treats to Eat Holiday foods may be tasty, but they aren't always a treat for pets. » Poultry bones splinter and can be very dangerous for pets to chew. ¢ Ham and other pork dishes are rich, often upsetting pets’ sys- tems. e Chocolate contains theob- romine, a chemical that can be deadly to dogs. Never share choco- late or other candy with animals. Instead of people food, give pets a few of their favorite treats during special meals. Gifts and Goodies Pets deserve presents, too, but choose safe toys that won't harm them. * Avoid toys with small parts or those made of soft materials that pets can chew up and swallow. Avoid hard plastic dog bones. They can splinter or shed frag- ments that dogs swallow. Nylon- type chews are much better and last longer, too. e Don’t put catnip or other ed- ibles in hanging stockings (espcially if they're by the fire). ID tags, cols lars and leashes are better stock- ing stuffers. e And don't forget needy ani- mals during the holidays. Shelter animals always need donations of food and money. We hope these tips will help you and your pet have a safe and happy holiday season.
