It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Our pets are as much a part of our holiday celebration as any other family member. I know my dog Hazel is! So, how do we get our fur-family holiday ready? It's all about priorities. My top priority is keeping Hazel safe this time of year because she is a trouble magnet. Hazel’s top priority is having a full tummy at all times!

Easter lily is
a beautiful gift but is deadly for cats
Easter is a wonderful holiday to celebrate with family- pets
included. Like so many other holidays the celebration can unintentionally
pose a threat to a cat or dog. One common Easter gift is lethal to cats and
symptoms can show up in as little as six hours.
The spring celebration usually involves chocolate that can be a deadly treat for a dog. Something
else to consider is the Easter grass that lines the bottom of most Easter gift
baskets. It can create dangerous intestinal damage if ingested by a dog or cat,
resulting in expensive vet bills.
