🐾🚭 How Smoking & Va**ng Can Affect Your Pets 🚭🐾
Ci******es, e-ci******es, and va**ng devices release chemicals that can be harmful to pets when inhaled or absorbed from their environment.
Secondhand and thirdhand exposure (residue left on furniture, floors, and fur) may contribute to:
• Respiratory irritation, coughing, or wheezing
• Exacerbation of asthma or existing lung conditions
• Eye, nose, and throat irritation
• Gastrointestinal upset if residue is ingested during grooming
• Ni****ne toxicity from chewing v**e cartridges, pods, or ci******es
• Increased risk of chronic lung and heart disease over time
Because pets are smaller and spend more time close to the ground, toxins can accumulate more easily in their breathing space.
Ways to reduce exposure:
✔️ Avoid smoking or va**ng indoors or in enclosed areas
✔️ Store ni****ne products securely and out of reach
✔️ Wash hands and change clothing after smoking or va**ng
✔️ Maintain a clean, smoke-free environment for your pet
