Halloween Safety Tips for pets

Halloween is very stressful for pets, when excited children in costumes continually disruption regular routines with screaming and other loud noises they're not used to being around.

Most pets do not like to have costumes (or clothes) on their bodies, it may be too tight or too loose and bother them to the point where they become agitated.

The safest thing to do is to remove your pet from the front door area so there is no chance for them to get "spooked" and bolt outside and get lost.

Keep all Halloween treats away from pets ~ Chocolate is poisonous, tin foil and wrappers if ingested can cause obstructions which may require expensive surgery to repair!

Keep pets away from pumpkins with lighted candles inside ~ cat especially are curious and a dangerous accident could happen.
 

*Imagine your pet seeing this at your door! he/she may be afraid and bolt (and become lost forever) or become aggressive and tear into the person wearing it, (you could be in for a lawsuit). Keep them safe and away from the door!

 
NEVER leave a pet outside during Halloween they may become the victim of a prankster!

Care givers should be ESPECIALLY CAREFUL WITH BLACK CATS ON HALLOWEEN ~ if possible keep them safe inside until morning, some Halloween goers have been know to torture black cats as a Ritual.

HAVE A HAPPY AND SAFE HALLOWEEN!
