As we gather around the table this Thanksgiving, let’s remember to keep our furry family members safe! Here are some tips to ensure a pet-friendly holiday:
🍗 Avoid Table Scraps: Turkey, stuffing, and pies may smell tempting, but rich or fatty foods can cause digestive upset or even dangerous conditions like pancreatitis in pets.
🧄 Watch Out for Toxic Ingredients: Common Thanksgiving foods like onions, garlic, grapes, raisins, and chocolate are harmful to pets. Make sure these stay out of reach!
🍞 Secure the Leftovers: Even a small turkey bone can be a choking hazard, or worse, lead to blockages.
🍽️ Create a Pet-Friendly Plate: If you want to treat your pet, stick to safe options like plain turkey (no skin or seasoning), small bites of sweet potatoes, or cooked carrots.
🚪 Prepare a Quiet Space: If you’re hosting, some pets can get overwhelmed. Create a cozy retreat so they have a calm place to relax.
Let's make this a wonderful Thanksgiving for all members of the family—two-legged and four! 🧡🦃🐾
