Holiday cheer is in the air—but let’s keep it safe for our pets!
Festive decorations, twinkling lights, and shiny ornaments can all be hazards for curious pets. Think climbing cats and toppled trees, or a pup chewing on light cords.
Decorations aren’t the only concern. Holiday plants like mistletoe, holly, and poinsettias are toxic to cats and dogs. Stick to faux greenery or keep them out of reach.
Holiday treats can be tempting for pets, but many seasonal foods like chocolate, raisins, and latke are dangerous.
Check out this full guide on holiday pet safety—because festive fun is better without an emergency vet visit! 🐶❤️ https://pbxx.it/6qVUPu

Following the devastation of Hurricane Helene, ASPCA® Pet Health Insurance partnered with The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals® (ASPCA®), donating $25,000 to provide 216 dog houses for families in need.

In addition to building these dog houses, ASPCA® Pet Health Insurance is supporting customers affected by natural disasters like Hurricane Helene by extending grace periods, providing extensions for claim submissions, and more.
To date, the ASPCA® has helped over 15,000 animals through dog house building and additional relief efforts such as emergency shelters, pet supply distribution, veterinary care, reuniting lost pets with their families, and more. https://pbxx.it/x4N5VD
