⚠️ PSA: Protect Your Pets in Freezing Temperatures! ⚠️

With temperatures dropping into the single digits this week, it’s critical to keep your pets safe from the dangers of extreme cold. Here’s what pet owners need to know:

🐾 The Dangers:
• Frostbite & Hypothermia: Pets are at risk of frostbite on ears, tails, noses, and paws. Hypothermia can set in quickly, especially in freezing or wet conditions.
• Exposed Skin: Short-haired breeds and pets with thin fur are especially vulnerable to the cold.
• Outdoor Cats: Cats seeking shelter under cars for warmth may become trapped or injured. Always check under your vehicle before starting it.
• Ice and Salt Hazards: Ice can cut paw pads, and de-icing salts can irritate or burn them. Pets may ingest harmful chemicals when licking their paws.

🐾 Safety Tips for Dogs & Cats:
1. Bring Them Inside: Cats and dogs should not be left outdoors in freezing weather. If you must take dogs out, limit their time outside.
2. Provide Warmth: Use sweaters or coats for short-haired dogs. Make sure pets have warm bedding indoors, away from drafts.
3. Check Under Cars: Tap the hood of your car before starting it to avoid harming outdoor cats hiding underneath for warmth.
4. Protect Paws: Use pet booties or wipe their paws after outdoor walks to remove ice and salt.
5. Hydration Matters: Ensure water bowls remain unfrozen, whether indoors or out.
6. Watch for Signs of Cold Stress: Shivering, whining, hiding, lethargy, or difficulty walking are signs your pet is too cold. Bring them inside immediately.
7. Never Leave Pets in Cars: Cars can act as freezers in winter.

Pets are family—keep them safe, warm, and indoors during freezing weather! 🐾❤️

Do you recognize this sweet boy?
He was dropped off to the clinic yesterday by a local West Newbury resident who he has been visiting every morning.
He is very social and loving! He is not microchipped or neutered. His right ear is tipped, as you can see in the photo. He looks to be roughly 1 to 3 years old.

Please contact the clinic or Newburyport/West Newbury Animal Newburyport / West Newbury Animal Control at 978-465-4410.
