Keep pets in a separate room when opening presents
Keep your pets separate when opening Christmas presents to make sure they don't get hold of anything they shouldn't!
Santa's Treats
If you leave treats out for Santa on Christmas Eve, make sure that your pets cannot get to them before he does!
Safe Zones
Having a safe zone for your pet gives them a handy place to retreat to if they are overwhelmed during the Christmas period.
Puzzle Feeders
Puzzle feeders are a great present for your pets!
Don't overfeed pets at Christmas
Pets typically get less exercise during the festive period, make sure not to overfeed them.
Family visits with pets
If you're taking your pet on a family visit, make sure they get plenty of bathroom breaks!
Noise overwhelms pets
Be mindful of your pets during your celebrations as they can become overwhelmed with too much noise.
Alcohol and pets
Alcohol can be toxic to pets, so never leave them alone with your Christmas tipple.
Christmas crackers noise
Loud noises can startle your pets, be mindful when you pull your Christmas crackers.
Cooked bones can splinter and cause obstructions
