HOLIDAY SAFETY TIPS FOR PETS
1. HOLIDAY SAFETY TIPS FOR PETS
Festive decorations and yummy
food add color and an atmosphere
of cheer to your home during the
holiday season. It is natural to
include your four-legged friend in
holiday festivities, but be careful to
safeguard them against potential
dangers of common holiday
decorations and treats.
A Christmas tree is often the focus of holiday decorations but can be
dangerous to your pets. A tree should be securely anchored so it cannot
be toppled by a curious dog investigating the ornaments. A tree-
climbing cat can take a one down even faster.Fragile breakable
ornaments should be kept high.
2. HOLIDAY SAFETY TIPS FOR PETS
Many Christmas dinner tables feature a turkey or ham with all the trimmings. It is
tempting to share some of the goodies with your family pet. Make sure you offer a
tasty delight and not a tummy ache. Some holiday favorites can cause severe
gastrointestinal upset and perhaps an emergency trip to the vet.
3. HOLIDAY SAFETY TIPS FOR PETS
Pets of any age may see the
cords on tree lights as
tempting chew toys, but they
are especially attractive to
young cats and dogs. Gnawing
on wires puts your pet at risk
of severe burns or even
electrocution. A barrier of
aluminum foil, double-sided
tape or bubble wrap can be a
deterrent, but using a
commercial product designed
to wrap cords is much better.

TIPS FOR PETS
Poinsettias, holly,
mistletoe,amaryllis,
and lilies are
commonly used to
brighten the home.
All are toxic to pets.
Lilies are the most
dangerous as a few
bites can cause kidney
failure in cats. Others
are less toxic but can
cause vomiting and
diarrhea and should
be kept out of reach.
5. HOLIDAY SAFETY TIPS FOR PETS
Sharing ham or other pork dishes is not recommended. Most
commercial foods do not use pork as an ingredient in their products
because it is too fatty and salty and according to experts at the
American Kennel Club (AKC) there is a slight risk of your dog being
infected with the round worm trichinosis.
6. HOLIDAY SAFETY TIPS FOR PETS
Green bean casserole is a standby for many family dinners but is off limits for your dog.
The dairy in the sauce can cause diarrhea, and onions can be toxic. Plain green beans
are very healthy and are a tasty treat that most dogs love. Similarly, baked sweet
potatoes are fine, but candied sweet potatoes or yams are loaded with undesirable
sugar and spices.

We love to share cheerful decorations and delicious holiday food with friends. Regrettably, they
can pose a danger to our pets. Our lovely decorations can cause cuts, electrical shock or other
injuries to much-loved pals. Sharing holiday delectable goodies can lead to gastrointestinal
distress for a four-legged friend. Offer holiday treats in small portions. Keep your pet on his
regular diet but reduce the amount to balance the calories in the holiday goodies.
