Hey there, Spook-tacular Friends!
As you prepare for Halloween parties and candy collecting, let’s make sure our furry family members have a great time—safely, of course!
Follow these Halloween Safety Tips:
Avoid Decoration Dangers: Lit candles, spooky decorations, and jack-o-lanterns can be hazardous. Keep these fun items out of your pet’s reach!
Ensure Proper Identification: Make sure your pet has a collar with an ID tag and is microchipped. This is crucial in case they slip out while you’re busy.
Secure Costume Items: Glow sticks, batteries, and small costume parts should be kept away from pets to prevent choking or ingestion.
Avoid Halloween Treats: Keep all candy, especially chocolate, xylitol products, and raisins, out of reach. These treats can be toxic to pets.
Keep Pets Indoors: Keeping your pets indoors helps reduce the risk of them getting lost, injured, or frightened.
Supervise/Isolate Anxious Pets: If your pet is nervous around strangers, consider keeping them in a quiet room during trick-or-treating hours.
Choose Pet Costumes Carefully: If dressing up your pet, ensure the costume fits well, doesn’t obstruct vision or breathing, and is made of safe materials. Avoid items like rubber bands that could restrict circulation.
