Spread the festive joy safely! 🎄

While Christmas is a season of festivities and happiness, it can pose risks to our feline friends. Here's how to keep them out of harm's way:

🎅 Opt for artificial trees to prevent sharp pine needles from causing harm if ingested.
🎅 Say no to tinsel, as it can lead to stomach and intestinal blockages, and in severe cases, be fatal.
🎅 Beware of toxic plants like Poinsettia, Lilies, Holly, Mistletoe, and Amaryllis that can be harmful to cats.
🎅 Keep human treats away from your curious cats—onions, garlic, raisins, grapes, chocolate, and alcohol can spell trouble. Don't forget to be cautious with meat strings!

For further information on how to keep your family pets safe this Christmas, check out web pages such as The Blue Cross and Cat's Protection!

We have been notified that a poisonous plant is being used as decoration in a pot plant that can be purchased in garden centres and possibly florists.

The pot plant is Livistona rotundifolia (footstool palm; also known as Saribus rotundifolius) and pots of these plants are decorated with three fibrous balls. The balls are the skeletonised fruit of Cerbera odollam (su***de tree, pong-pong). Within each fruit is a kernel that is extremely toxic; a single kernel can be fatal if eaten and poses a risk to both pets and people. The toxic compounds in Cerbera odollam are cardiac glycosides, which are also found in foxglove, oleander, lily of the valley and other plants.

If you have these fibrous fruits in your pot plant, remove them and dispose of them safely. It you are worried your pet may have eaten the plant material contact Animal PoisonLine (01202 509 000)or your vet immediately.

SUPREME CAT SHOW VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!
The Supreme show team are in the final stages of planning for this year's show. Entries and trade stands have been well supported. Many of you will remember the survey from last year where we identified what had worked well and some areas for improvement. One of the most pressing areas to address was having more help to ensure the day can run as efficiently as possible.
We are thankful for those that have put themselves forward already but we are still looking for other people to give up some of their time to steward, table work, input results, cover the door etc.
If you think you can help please contact Jen PInches by messenger or email at [email protected]

Fun, conversation, updates and the music you love with Sile.
