that won ’ t lead to costly medical bills . If you want to share holiday treats with your pets , make or buy treats formulated just for them .
If your celebration includes adult holiday beverages , be sure to place your unattended alcoholic drinks where pets cannot get to them . If ingested , your pet could become weak , ill and may even go into a coma , possibly resulting in death from respiratory failure .
Looking to stuff your pet ’ s stockings ? Stick with chew toys that are basically indestructible , Kong-brand toys that can be stuffed with healthy foods , or chew treats that are designed to be safely digestible . Long , stringy things are a feline ’ s dream , but the riskiest toys for cats involve ribbon , yarn and loose fabrics that can get stuck in the intestines , often necessitating surgery .
Before you join friends and family to celebrate the holiday season this winter , take time to make sure your home is free of potential dangers or hazards for your pet . Happy holidays !
