During the holiday season, our pets want to be in on the
action just like anyone else. It’s important to be prepared for possible pet
emergencies if your pet is going to be home during the holidays. It’s important
to, first of all, educate your guests about not feeding table scraps to your
pet.
We recommend having pet treats set aside so that guests who do feel the
urge to feed your pet will be sure to feed them something safe. We recommend
keeping all garbage can lids on tight as that trash is going to start smelling
delicious to your pet once it’s filled with discarded turkey bones and other
rich holiday foods.
If possible, we also suggest keeping your pet in a quiet,
comfortable place away from the action during mealtimes. This keeps them from
temptation when plates or food items are spilled on the floor, and can also
help alleviate their anxiety. All pets should be given the opportunity to take
a nap during the holidays, after all, on regular days most of our pets sleep
for 16 hours or more!
