The cold temps and winter weather are in full force! Please keep your pets safe. 🐾
Some reminders for you:
• Keep pets inside. They can freeze, become disoriented and get lost, injured, or worse.
• If they must be outside, they need a dry, warm shelter out of the wind and cold with thick bedding and access to fresh, non-frozen water.
• Check your dog’s paws for cracked or bleeding pads, ice/snow stuck in pads, and chemicals used to treat icy sidewalks.
• Make sure your pets have their collars with correct information on in the event they get lost in the cold.
• Steer clear of frozen lakes or ponds that can’t hold your pets’ weight.
• Outdoor cats can find car engines a good source of warmth, make noise and check under your vehicle before using.
• Be prepared for power outages with your pet’s food, water, and any meds on hand.
Stay warm, everyone!
