Holiday gatherings are often filled with feasts and treats, but not all human foods are safe for pets. Many pre-prepared holiday dishes contain garlic and onion, and sweets can contain ingredients like grapes and raisins, chocolate, or xylitol, which are harmful to pets. Stick to simple, unprocessed foods and ensure friends and family know your pet’s dietary restrictions.

Speaking of food, remember that cats and dogs have sensitive digestive systems. Every holiday season, veterinarians see a spike in pancreatitis cases from pets eating table scraps, getting into the trash and munching on candy. Be especially watchful of sneaky snacking!

a little late, but it's always a good day to check your pet's microchip and make sure your information is current with the company.

🔎 Check the Chip Day is here! 🔎
As veterinary professionals, you know that microchips can significantly increase the chances of being reunited with a lost pet. But a microchip is only effective if the registration info is UTD!

Help us recognize by making sure to remind your clients to update their microchip information, or taking a little bit of extra time to educate on the importance of microchipping. 🐶🐱

Our microchip lookup tool can assist in finding registration companies: https://hubs.li/Q02Lq6pB0

Let’s make sure every lost pet finds their way home! 🏡💙
