🌟 Tips for Keeping Your Pet Safe on Valentine's Day 🌟

Valentine's Day is often a sweet occasion, with many of us celebrating the day of love with chocolates, lollies and flowers. However foods containing chocolate or xylitol, along with some flower species can be dangerous and even potentially fatal for our pets.

Chocolate 🍫
Chocolate is toxic to both dogs and cats and can result in significant illness. Chocolate is toxic because it contains a chemical called theobromine, as well as caffeine. Theobromine is the predominant toxin in chocolate and is very similar to caffeine. Dogs and cats cannot metabolise theobromine and caffeine as well as people can, and this makes them more sensitive to the chemicals’ effects.

Xylitol 🍬
Xylitol is a sweetener that is most commonly found in food products but can be found in other consumer goods such as medications, sunscreen, makeup and toothpaste.
Consumption can be dangerous for your dog, causing low blood sugar and liver injury.

Flowers 💐
Many popular bouquet flowers can lead to serious symptoms in dogs and cats, such as seizures, breathing problems and liver failure.
Flowers that are toxic to pets include: tulips, azaleas, birds of paradise, lillies, carnations, chrysanthemums, daffodils and rhododendrons.
Flowers that are safe for pets include: Roses, orchids, daisies, sunflowers and snapdragons.

❗️If you suspect that your pet has ingested chocolate, xylitol or toxic flowers please seek immediate veterinary attention. ☎
Our Cannington hospital is open 24/7 and our Yokine hospital provides after-hours emergency care - 365 days per year.

UPDATE: Confirmation that HomeSafeID is officially closed. https://www.homesafeid.com/
Australasian Animal Registry also confirmed that they are definitely taking registrations now. They have detailed instructions on how to do this on https://www.aar.org.au/ They ask that you mark any enquiries or registrations with "HOMESAFEID" as they are doing them as a priority.
Global Microship are doing free reregistrations for affected ex HomeSafe animals https://www.globalmicro.com.au/homesafe-re-registration/
Central Animal Records have confirmed they are taking HomeSafe reregistrations now too https://car.com.au/pages/homesafe-id-landing

Any further enquires should be directed to the new microchip data base you choose :)
............................................................................................................................
UPDATE: Any registrations to AAR are on hold until they receive the go ahead to process them. There are some talks of a new owner for the Homesafeid company. We will advise any further updates on this continuously changing situation. Our main concern being that lost pets may not be able to be reunited. Let's hope it is fixed soon.

We would recommend to complete the following steps to ensure the safety of your pet in the mean time.

Ensure your pet's details are registered and current with your local council/shire/city (N.B Pet registration and microchipping are 2 different things). Add a personalised ID tag with your contact details on your pet’s collar. These two steps will give you some protection if your microchip details are not accessible.
............................................................................................................................

Important Microchip Information for Pet Owners

Microchip registries store your contact & pet's details and are accessed by vets/councils allowing us to reunite animals with their families!

We have been informed that the microchip registry Homesafe ID has gone into receivership and is no longer operational.

What this means for you and your pet:
Your pet’s microchip will still stay active & a new microchip does not need to be implanted.

However, there is limited access to the online database including the inability to update details and in some circumstances details cannot be accessed at all.

What you need to do:
Check your pet's microchip registration at www.petaddress.com.au to see which register your pet is listed with.

If your pet is microchipped with Homesafe, it might be a good idea to get your pet scanned and registered with a new provider to ensure you can update and manage your contact information.

Ensure your pet's details are registered and current with your local council/shire/city (N.B Pet registration and microchipping are 2 different things). Add a personalised ID tag with your contact details on your pet’s collar. These two steps will give you some protection if your microchip details are not accessible.

If you're unsure about your pet’s microchip number or provider, or if you’d like to verify it is registered correctly, bring them in for a quick scan. It’s always a good idea to make sure your details are up-to-date.
