PETA issues warning: Halloween can be dangerous for animals
Keep your pets safe this Halloween with these tips from PETA
Halloween is a fun holiday for humans, but it can be dangerous for animals. Here are some tips from PETA to help keep your pets safe this Halloween:
* Keep your pets indoors. This is the best way to protect them from the dangers of Halloween, such as traffic, fireworks, and other hazards.
* If you must take your pet outside, keep them on a leash. This will help prevent them from running away or getting lost.
* Be careful about what your pet eats. Candy, chocolate, and other Halloween treats can be harmful to animals. If you give your pet a treat, make sure it is something that is safe for them to eat.
* Watch out for decorations. Halloween decorations can be dangerous for animals. Some decorations, such as candles, can cause fires. Others, such as sharp objects, can injure animals.
* Be aware of the dangers of fireworks. Fireworks can be terrifying for animals. If you are planning on using fireworks, make sure to do so in a safe area away from animals.
* If your pet is injured or lost, contact your veterinarian or local animal shelter immediately.
