With the Hallo-weekend just a few days away…now’s the time to share some reminders for pet safety during the upcoming spooky festivities! 🍬

1. Many treats found in your halloween bowl may contain xylitol, a substance that can be extremely toxic to cats and dogs! Keep an eye on those wrappers to avoid ingestions by your furry family members. 🐾

2. Keep front doors secure, especially for those escape artist pets! Utilize baby gates, or keeping a separate room available during high volumes of door opening is a great way to keep pets secure and safe. 🐶

3. Loud decorations, costume accessories and frequent knocking or doorbell ringing can create a stressful environment for some pets! Being mindful, and planning ahead with calming medications can help eliminate some triggers. 🎃

As always, planning ahead is an asset in a smooth and safe spooky evening! 👻🍭

*For after hour emergencies please reach out to Maritime Veterinary Emergency or Metro Animal Emergency clinic.
