It is not uncommon for community cats to seek warmth under the hood of cars during the winter. Which can cause them serious injury when you start your vehicle. During these colder winter months, it’s best to knock on the hood or sound your horn before starting your engine.

Because of its sweet taste, antifreeze is unfortunately a common pet toxin in the winter. Be sure to look out for antifreeze spills around your car, driveway and garage and clean them up immediately.

If you’re headed out on a road trip this winter and taking your pet, be sure to never leave them alone in the car. When not running, cars in the winter keep in the cold, picture them as parked refrigerators. If left alone, your pets can suffer from frostbite, cold stress, and hypothermia.
