During this time of year, chocolate seems to make it's way around more often. While it's a tasty treat for us, chocolate contains caffeine and theobromine, chemical compounds that dogs and cats can't metabolize effectively. 🍩🍫

This can lead to symptoms like vomiting, diarrhea, rapid heart rate, and in severe cases, seizures or even death. Keep chocolate out of reach of dogs and cats, and if you suspect your pet may have ingested anything containing cocoa, seek emergency vet care immediately. 🐶🐱🐾
