🎃👻 HALLOWEEN PET SAFETY TIPS! 🐾🦇
With Halloween being celebrated this Saturday, it can be full of spooky fun for us, but it can be a little frightening for our furry family members! 🐶🐱
Before the trick-or-treating begins, here are a few tips to keep your pets safe this Halloween. 🧡
🍫 Keep the lollies out of reach! Chocolate, lollies and sugar-free sweets containing xylitol can be dangerous to pets. Keep lolly bags well out of paw’s reach!
🎃 Decorate safely! Keep candles, lit pumpkins, electrical cords and small decorations away from curious noses and wagging tails.
🐾 Watch the front door! With visitors coming and going, pets can easily slip outside. Keep them safely indoors and make sure their microchip details are up to date.
👻 Costumes aren’t for every pet! If your pet dresses up, make sure their costume fits comfortably, allows them to move and breathe freely, and has no small parts they could chew or swallow. If they seem uncomfortable, let them go without.
🔊 Keep things calm! Doorbells, excited visitors and people in spooky costumes can be stressful for pets. Set up a quiet, secure space where they can relax away from the action.
🧡 Know what to do in an emergency. If your pet eats something potentially toxic, contact us or your regular vet immediately. Don’t wait for symptoms to appear or try to make your pet vomit unless instructed by a veterinary professional.
From all of us at the clinic, we wish you and your furry family members a spook-tacular and safe Halloween! 🎃🐾
🦴 Remember, the best treats are always the ones made especially for pets!
