The holidays bring lots of beautiful décor, but some of it can pose risks to our pets. Many popular plants, like poinsettias, holly, mistletoe, and lilies, can be toxic if chewed or ingested. Keep them out of reach or swap them for pet-safe alternatives to avoid any surprises.
Christmas trees can also be tempting. Make sure your tree is secure so it can’t tip over, keep fragile ornaments higher up, and block access to the tree water, which may contain preservatives or bacteria.
If you have a curious pup or a tree explorer, using a baby gate or a small barrier can help keep everyone safe.
A little preparation goes a long way in keeping your home festive and your pets protected this holiday season.
