The holiday season is a great time to make new memories with family, friends, and fur-babies! There are a just a few precautions that pet parents need to take to keep their pets safe this holiday season. Dr. Rusty Tracy, D.V.M. lists the 5 most common things to watch out for.

FATTY FOODS

Human foods that are high in fat can be especially harmful to your pets. Since dogs and cats are accustomed to normal to low fat diets, ingesting fatty foods can cause weakness and pain as well as severe stomach upset including throwing up, diarrhea, and severe pancreatitis which is potentially life-threatening. If your pet exhibits several of these symptoms repeatedly, contact your veterinarian right away. Avoid giving your dog ham, fatty table scraps and left overs, and dark turkey meat.

BONES & OTHER CHOKING HAZARDS

Ham bones & turkey bones are choking hazards for your pet. While you may not be directly giving your pet leftovers or bones, many dogs and cats get into the trash. For this reason we recommend that you take your trash out quickly. During this time of year we see an increase in dogs coming in for foreign body removals of disposable plates, silverware, or other items that had food remnants on them.

CHOCOLATES & SWEETS

Candy, chocolate, and other sweets that contain xylitol can be toxic for both dogs and cats. Xylitol is just a sugar substitute found in some sugar-free candies, gum and recipes. When ingested by pets, xylitol may cause vomiting, loss of coordination, seizures, and in severe cases, liver failure. Make sure that you put your sweets far out of reach from your pets.

FOOD ALLERGIES

Certain foods like nuts & raisins can also cause stomach upset for your pets. In high quantities, these can be toxic. Keep your pets away from the table and unattended plates of food. It's also okay to set some house rules for your guests and ask your them to not feed your pets.

TINSEL & HOLIDAY DECORATIONS

Cats are notorious for eating tinsel. This sparkling decoration attracts cats like nothing else, so it's best to use a different decoration for your tree. Tinsel is thin and sharp and can easily wrap itself around the intestines or ball up in the stomach once ingested. Dr. Tracy has had to do several surgeries to remove balls of tinsel from cat intestines. Lights are another thing to watch out for.

Dr. Rusty Tracy asks pet owners to be alert this time of year: "You've got to watch out for cats getting up into the tree and electrocuting themselves. They like to chew on those lights! You don't have to get rid of all your decorations; it's just a time of year to be cautious."

Be mindful of where you place your electrical outlets, and if possible, keep them out of reach from your pet.

So line that tree with tinsel, enjoy those extra special dishes, sing along to your favorites, follow these safety tips and have a happy and safe holiday season.

I was having Herpes Simplex Virus then I came across a review of people testifying how they got cured and got rid of Herpes completely from their body by using Dr Osato herbal medicine. So I contacted him through his email and explained my problem to him. He told me all the things I needed to do and he sent the herbal medicine to me through UPS and he also gave me instructions on how to take the herbal medicine, which I rightly followed. After I finished taking the cure, I went for a checkup and my result was Negative and all the symptoms of herpes were completely gone from my body. If you are down with any of the following diseases/viruses like HERPES-1&2, HIV, HPV, LOW SPERM, DIABETES, CANCER, PENIS ENLARGEMENT or any other disease or ailment. I recommend you to contact this great herbalist called Dr Osato he uses natural herbs to cure diseases/viruses. Be rest assured you will surely testify like the way I am doing right now by writing this amazing testimony.
