Holidays can be hectic for everyone in your family, including the family pet. Please remember to never leave your pets ( children) unattended when holiday lights are plugged in due to risks of electrocution and fire dangers. Many plants including poinsettas can be posinous (especially for cats) so please be sure to keep these items out of reach. Also be sure to keep holiday chocolates out of reach of an unsupervised dog. Try not to leave pieces of gift wrapping ribbons where kitty can get to them and sometimes eat them causing blockages in the intestines that in some cases could require surgery. If your animals are easily stressed out and of the nervous or extremely shy disposition it may be best to keep them in a dark and quite room if your house is full of quest and noisier than usual. This will prevent undue stress to your pet. With all this in mind am wishing everyone a safe and happy holiday season and we are looking forward to a great New Year ahead.
