Safety Tips for Pets During the Holiday Season

Mark Herman, Harris County Constable Precinct 4

KEEP YOUR FURRY FAMILY MEMBERS IN MIND THIS SEASON!

Seasonal plants like poinsettias are toxic to cats and dogs. If ingested, they cause vomiting & diarrhea. Opt for artificial plants or simply don’t use these varieties.

Also keep in mind that small ornaments pose a choking hazard.
Anything that could hurt your pet should be kept out of reach or out of the house altogether.

Happy holidays!

Also, now is aa good time to make a plan for New Years. Many pets are lost because owners think just bringing them in the house or sticking them in the yard will keep them safe. They think the world is ending and are terrified. Make a plan. Keep them secure. Be sure they have registered chips with up to date info and names and phone numbers on tags.
