Let’s keep our furry family safe!

As Easter approaches, here are some reminders about potential hazards for pets in common Easter decorations and foods.

Easter lilies are highly toxic to cats
All parts of the Easter lily plant are poisonous—the petals, the leaves, the stem and even the pollen. Cats that ingest as few as one or two leaves, or even a small amount of pollen while grooming their fur, can suffer severe kidney failure.

Many other varieties of the lily family, including tiger, day, rubrum, stargazer, and Japanese show are also toxic to cats and can cause kidney failure within 72 hours. These lilies are commonly found in florist bouquets, so it is imperative to check for poisonous flowers before bringing bouquets into the household.

In most situations, symptoms of poisoning will develop within six to 12 hours of exposure. Early signs include vomiting, loss of appetite, lethargy and dehydration. Symptoms worsen as kidney failure develops. Some cats will experience disorientation, staggering and seizures.

There is no effective antidote to counteract lily poisoning, so the sooner you can get your cat to the veterinarian, the better the chances of survival will be. If you see your cat licking or eating any part of an Easter lily, call your veterinarian or a pet poison helpline immediately. If left untreated, the chances of survival are low.

Easter grass
Also potentially harmful is the fake plastic "grass" that often accompanies Easter baskets. When your cat or dog ingests something stringy like this "grass," it can become anchored around the base of the tongue or stomach, rendering it unable to pass through the intestines. It can result in a linear foreign body and cause severe damage to the intestinal tract, often requiring expensive abdominal surgery.

Chocolate
While the occasional chocolate chip in one cookie may not be an issue, certain types of chocolate are very toxic to dogs. In general, the darker and more bitter the chocolate, the greater the danger. Baker’s chocolate and dark chocolate pose the biggest problem. The chemical toxicity is due to methylxanthines (a relative of caffeine) and results in vomiting, diarrhea, hyperactivity, an abnormal heart rhythm, seizures, and possibly death. Other sources include chewable chocolate flavored multi-vitamins, baked goods, or chocolate-covered espresso beans. If you suspect that your dog ate chocolate, call your veterinarian.

Plastic eggs
Dogs may find plastic Easter eggs remarkably similar to balls, but, if eaten, the sharp pieces of plastic can cause GI issues.

Pennies (and coins)
If you (or the Easter bunny) leaves coin-filled eggs for little ones to find, please be aware that pennies, in particular, can be toxic if ingested. Pennies minted after 1982 contain zinc, which can be harmful if consumed. If your dog, cat, or bird ingests coins, please contact your veterinarian.

Who’s this fantastic employee, you might be wondering?
This is our Hailey!!💕
6 years ago this lovely lady started as a kennel tech at another clinic. She did a year in Emergency Vet Med & loved it! (some of us have a thing for The ER🚨)
We grabbed Hailey almost 2 years ago & are grateful to call her ours!
She hails from Vallejo, Ca ☀️but lived all over due to being in a military family. Her grandparents have lived in the Rogue Valley forever so Hailey moved here when she was 10 years old. Her home is occupied by her young & cute daughter, 2 crazy cattledogs & chickens! 🐔 She told me that Texas Roadhouse may be her favorite restaurant—“the rolls”….she says! 🥖
If you want to make Hailey smile & giggle, get her anything PINK!💓
Hailey, we love your great smile, sense of humor, outstanding care that you show daily to all our patients & we love having you with us at PVC!💖💘💝
