N o scaredy cats this Halloween Pet safety tips for pet owners Submitted by Ontario SPCA Huron County Animal Centre With the scariest night of the year soon upon us, it's the perfect occasion to remind pet parents how to protect their pets from the dangers of Halloween night. The Ontario SPCA Huron County animal Centre recommends follow- ing these simple precautions to ensure your pet can howl the night away! First, keep your pets away from candy intended for trick or -treaters. Chocolate, even in small doses, can be fatal to both dogs and cats. Candies contain the artificial sweet- ener xylitol and can also be fatal if ingested by animals. Second, it's best to keep an eye on wires and cords from electric lights. Dogs and cats might decide to chew on them and may suffer serious injuries as a result. It's also important to pre- vent your pet from munching on festive Halloween pump- kins and other plants so they don't get upset stomachs. "Keeping your pet safe on Halloween should be a top priority on such a busy night. Pets may run out of the house when answering the door for trick -or -treaters or become frightened from the amount of traffic at the front door," said Tamara Minns, Ontario SPCA Huron County Animal Centre Coordinator. It's best to keep pets in a separate room during trick - or -treating hours. Halloween is also a great time to consider adopting a black, calico or orange cat.
