Pearls of Prevention

On the Eleventh Day of Prevention, to stay out of the ED, my husband said to me:

Holidays are fun and busy, but stressful for pets; please remember to keep them safe as well.

Many hazards come from ingesting toxic things. Animals do not always make the best digestive choices. A lot of people know that chocolate is toxic for dogs. Did you know grapes and raisins are, too? Avocados are toxic for birds. Alcoholic drinks, teas, and coffees should not be offered to pets or left unattended.
