Safe holiday tips for pets from Texas A M Vet Med
Pet safety during holidays includes keeping tinsel and ribbons out of reach to prevent ingestion and possible surgery, avoiding mistletoe and poinsettias that cause vomiting, placing candles high, and not feeding leftovers especially chocolate. Secure live or fake trees, don’t fertilize tree water, and anchor the tree to prevent tipping. Eckman warns of risks and urges vet consultation for any illness.
