Happy Friday! 'Twas the night before Halloween...

For our final Halloween safety tip, we're covering Halloween decor!

Before Halloween night, take a look at your decorations with your pet in mind.

Electrical cords, dangling decorations, glow sticks, and small plastic pieces can all pose hazards to your family pets. Open flames in jack-o'-lanterns can also lead to burns or fires.

Battery-operated candles are a safer option, and keeping tempting decorations out of reach can prevent an unexpected trip to the vet. (This is an excellent tip to keep in mind through all of the upcoming holidays, as well!)

Today is National Cat Day and just 2 days away from Halloween, so we decided to go with a multi-purpose post!

1) Happy National Cat Day! We'd love to see fun photos of your favorite feline friends. 🐈
2) Our next Halloween safety tip: Costumes aren't for every pet!
Some pets are perfectly happy wearing a Halloween costume. Others would rather pass altogether.

If you're dressing up your pet, make sure the costume doesn't restrict movement, breathing, hearing, or vision. Avoid small pieces that could be chewed off or swallowed.

And if your pet seems uncomfortable, "cute dog" or "pretty kitty" is always an acceptable alternative!

6 Days until Halloween...
Our next safety tip:
Doorbells, Visitors & Escape Artists

Halloween means lots of visitors, unfamiliar sounds, and frequent door openings. Even normally calm pets can become frightened or overwhelmed.

Consider setting up a quiet, comfortable space away from the front door before trick-or-treating begins. Make sure your pet's ID tags and microchip information are up to date, just in case someone slips outside.

With less than two weeks until Halloween, we're sharing a few simple tips to help keep your pets safe during the festivities. First up: Halloween candy:

Halloween treats are for humans, not pets! 🎃

Chocolate and candy containing xylitol (sometimes labeled birch sugar) can be especially dangerous for dogs. Raisins are also toxic, and candy wrappers can cause intestinal blockages.

Keep candy bowls and trick-or-treat bags well out of reach, and call your veterinarian immediately if you suspect your pet has eaten something harmful.

It may not be Grinch season quite yet, but Grinch feet don't follow a calendar! 🐾

As adorable as those furry feet are, all that extra fluff can trap moisture, dirt, and debris, creating the perfect environment for skin irritation and bacterial or yeast overgrowth. In colder months, ice melt and road salt can also get caught between those toes, which can be painful and lead to more serious issues.

Regular paw checks and a little grooming go a long way! Keeping the fur between your dog's paw pads neatly trimmed can help keep paws clean, dry, and comfortable, while also improving traction on slippery floors.

We love a good Grinch foot, but healthy paws are even cuter! 💚

While we haven't been able to confirm, we're pretty sure a dog wrote this...
Happy Friday!

A new study published this week suggests the key to a good night's sleep may just be letting your dog sleep next to you.
