Is Valentine’s Day Toxic To Your Pet?

Every Cup Supports A Pup

If your pet isn’t acting his normal happy self and you think he has ingested any of these items, take him to a vet immediately.
#1 Chocolate
#2 Undergarments
#3 Jewelry
#4 Love letters on fancy paper
#5 Candle wax
#6 Flowers
#7 Body lotions
#8 Marijuana
#9 Perfume
#10 Bath bombs
#11 Cellophane
#12 Ribbons and strings

If you have bought your pet a dog toy and think this may be the culprit, check the material label. I found this very informative website on the 8 toxic materials found in pet products – https://www.rover.com/blog/toxic-pet-toys-beds-safety-guide/
When you have pets, it is always important to have a safety plan and be mindful of what products you have laying around the house whether it be a holiday or not. Our pets are curious and they love new, shiny things to play with. In this list, I would have never thought of love letters or fancy paper but it can get balled up and caught in their little throats. The ink can bleed from the paper causing them to be sick. Those fancy papers are sometimes thick and once ingested can cause a blockage. Candles are beautiful and make the room glow but cats are drawn to the light and their whiskers can get burned. The wax can drip and if stepped in can cause burning on paws and skin.
"Dream It, Believe it, Achieve It"
I love this saying; so inspiring and motivating! I got this decorative tabletop decor from a friend for Christmas and it sits on my desk so I can see it every morning. This is what Puppy Paws Coffee Company did. They had a vision with their coffee company and they are achieving it!
