Pet Safety During The Holidays

This article was contributed by Little Paws Pet Club Member Nicole V....... Nicole is an 'Expert Canine Stylist' and owner of Pampered Pups Grooming Parlour in Selah, Wa.

The holidays can be a very stressful and dangerous time for your family's pets. Be sure to keep all seasonal goodies up and out of your pets reach and be very careful in regard to the type and placement of decorations you put up in your home.

Poinsettias, holly, mistletoe and lilies are all poinsonous if eaten by your pets and Christmastree water may contain fertilizers and bacteria so your pets should never be allowed access to it.

Care should be taken to use screens on fireplaces and candles should only be burned where they won't be knocked over by a curious cat or exuberant dog.

Also, although tastey, tablescraps do NOT make healthy treats for pets and should be avoided, especially chocolate, alcohol, bones and turkey. Providing your pet with a quiet place to go to escape all the extra activity is thoughtful and kind.

Know that if you are planning to bring a new critter into your home this holiday season it's best to wait until after your household has settled down and can really focus on making your new family member feel welcome and secure.

Don't forget that there are COUNTLESS critters of all kinds out there just waiting to be adopted and www.PetFinder.com is a great place to start your search for a new best friend!

Please Don't Litter. Spay or Neuter Your Pets!
