Columbia/Boone County Department of Public Health - If You're Planning to Celebrate This Weekend, Don't Forget to Take Precautions to Protect Your Pets

275

If you're planning to celebrate this weekend, don't forget to take precautions to protect your pets.

Never leave alcoholic drinks unattended where pets can reach them.

Do not apply any sunscreen or insect repellent product to your pet that is not labeled specifically for use on animals.

Always keep matches and lighter fluid out of your pets’ reach.

Do not put glow jewelry on your pets, or allow them to play with it.

Keep citronella candles, insect coils and tiki torch oil products out of reach.

Never use fireworks around pets.

Loud, crowded fireworks displays are no fun for pets, who can become frightened or disoriented by the sound. Keep them home.
