This holiday season, let's ensure our homes are merry and safe for everyone, including our animals! While decking the halls, it's important to be mindful of holiday plants that might pose a risk to our pets. Some festive plants can be harmful if ingested by our curious companions. π
β οΈ Avoid potential hazards by keeping these plants out of reach:
- Mistletoe
- Holly
- Poinsettias
- Christmas tree pine needles
- Amaryllis
- Lilies
These plants, when nibbled on by our pets, could cause discomfort, illness, or even more severe issues. In case of any accidental ingestion or concerns about your pet's health, be sure to contact the β οΈ Pet Poison Helpline at 855-764-7661 or the ASPCA Poison Control Center 888-426-4435.
Let's make this season joyous and safe for every member of our family, furry ones included! Spread the word and keep those holiday plants in safe places!
