🎃🐾 Spook-tacular Halloween with Our Four-Legged Friends! 🐾🎃

As the witches stir their cauldrons and the ghosts come out to play, let's not forget our fur-ocious companions who add an extra dash of enchantment to this bewitching season! 🐶👻🐱

🧡 Pet-o-Lanterns! 🧡 Have you ever seen a cat with a pumpkin hat or a dog sporting a mummy costume? Share your fur-bulous pet Halloween photos in the comments below and let's see who's the spookiest, silliest, or cutest of them all!

🎃 Trick or Treat Tails! 🎃 Did your pet snag a few sneaky treats from the candy bowl? Or maybe they've mastered the art of the "spooky howl" at the moon? Share your pet's Halloween antics and give us a good laugh!

👻 Safety First! 👻 While we're having a howling good time, remember to keep our furry friends safe. Chocolate and candy are a no-no for pets, so make sure those treats are out of reach. And if you're out and about with your pet, keep them leashed and visible with reflective gear.

Let's make this Halloween a pawsitively fantastic one for our pets! Share your Halloween pet adventures and let's have a howl-tastic time together! 🐾🕸️🎉

For those who celebrate, Easter can be a time of sweets, family dinners, and meaningful gatherings. Follow these safety tips to keep your pet out of the ER!

- Avoid lilies - Though beautiful, lilies are extremely dangerous to cats and dogs. Keep the plants away from pets to avoid issues like vomiting, kidney failure, and death.

- Research the rabbit! Many families bring bunnies into their families around Easter, but they're not a novelty. Many rabbit species can live for several years and require special care. Be sure to speak with a veterinary professional to properly prepare for your new hopping family member.

- Keep the basket out of reach - We all know chocolate bunnies are toxic to animals, but in addition to that, sugar-free candy contains xylitol which is also a toxin! Additionally, small toys, ribbon, and Easter grass all pose a threat to pets. Double-check candy labels when shopping and be sure to keep baskets where pets can't reach.

Follow these pet safety tips for a happy and peaceful Passover!

- Save the food for the humans - While many families will be celebrating over dinner, it's best to ensure your furry friends don't get table scraps. Our food and items on the Seder plate can cause upset stomachs, pancreatitis, vomiting, diarrhea, and toxicity. Worse, bones can splinter and cause perforations in the stomach and intestines.

- Consider candles - While the most obvious danger when using candles is open flame, did you know they can also upset some animals' respiratory systems? Birds and animals with issues like asthma can be easily irritated by smoke and scent, so be cautious!

- Navigate the noise - Often with special holidays, we gather with lots of family and friends, but these meaningful moments can become overwhelming for animals. Dedicating a quiet space for your pet can help them feel more comfortable and keep them safe. Consider adding a noise machine for an especially serene environment!

Spring has sprung and for many, that means deep cleaning the home. But be careful, pet hazards can lurk in unlikely places.

- When clearing clutter, keep an eye on string-like items such as fabric scraps, trash bag handles, twine, and you guessed it - string! When consumed, these items can create an emergency situation for pets.

- Use caution when using cleaning solutions. These chemicals can be harmful to pets, especially birds.

- In addition to cleaning, be sure to check your window screens, doors, and fences to ensure they're in good shape and lessen the chance of your pet slipping out.
