Halloween Safety Tips for Pets.

Here are some handy tips for keeping kitty safe during Halloween. These apply to your pups as well. 1) Trick or treat candy is not for your pets. This includes popcorn or apples. 2) Don't leave pets outside on Halloween. 3) Keep pets confined and away from doors. We pass out candy outside to avoid that problem all together. 4) Keep outdoor cats confined if at all possible before and after the holiday for a few days, for their safety. 5) Keep pumpkins and decorative corn away from your pets. Granted pumpkin in small doses is good for your pet, once they have been carved they are not good, and only cooked pureed pumpkin is good for pets. 6) Don't keep lit pumpkins around pets, or small children. They now have fake candles for pumpkins, perfect. 7) Keep wire and cords from Halloween decorations out of pets reach. 8) Don't dress your pet in costumes unless they show that they are not uncomfortable in them. 9) Get everybody on board for the night and go over safety procedures when you have pets in the house at Halloween or any other holiday where you may have quests. 10) ID's please, just in case. If you have a pooch who loves to go trick or treating and is part of the festivities, please have them on a leash and have ID on their collar. So here's to a safe Halloween holiday for you and your furry babies. Happy Cat.
