Just a reminder that Maine has some pretty delicious foreign bodies for cats and dogs! Lobster shells, clam shells, mussel shells, and corn on the cob are all easily found on dinner tables, picnic tables, and trash cans! Sometimes we can get the chewed smaller pieces of corn cobs and shells to pass... but it can be painful and uncomfortable! Even dogs who never get into the trash at home MIGHT be tempted by the smell of seafood and butter. If you don't want to spend your summer evenings with us in our clinic, take a second to secure your delicious foreign bodies!
