5 Halloween Safety Tips For Your Pets
Posted on 05.18.20231. Avoid a candy cat-astrophe.
Halloween treats meant for people can be toxic for pets. Chocolate, sweets made with Xylitol and candy wrappers can turn Halloween into a real life nightmare. Play it safe by keeping all candy away from your pets. If you see any signs of illness such as vomiting, diarrhea, rapid heartbeat/ breathing or seizures, call your vet or Pet Poison Helpline (800-213-6690) ASAP. Remind your kids to keep candy out of reach and store it away from those pesky paws.2. Costumes aren’t always the cat’s pajamas.
I know what you’re thinking. What’s Halloween without costumes? But not all four-legged friends enjoy dressing up. Here's how to be sure you don't stress your pet:- Try the costume on in advance to see how they respond.
- Pets should only wear costumes they LOVE.
- Make sure Spot can move, breath and see.
- Double check for choking hazards.
- As an alternative try a festive bandana (there might even be one waiting for you at Bend Pet Express Dog Wash)!
