Halloween Safety Tips For Your Pets

There are many Halloween pet safety hazards related to this October holiday -- some are well-known (the dangers of chocolate toxicity), and some aren't. Learn what to be aware of to protect your pet and stay safe this year!

Things to Watch For on Halloween

Halloween is a fun time for kids and many adults, but can be a frightening and stressful time for your pets. As a pet owner, you know your pet best, but here are some points to consider for your pet's safety.

• Continual doorbell ringing and people at the door (in costume, no less!) can be stressful for a pet. Some pets may experience stress-related diarrhea or potentially injure themselves if crated or otherwise contained. Keep your pet in a quiet and safe place on Halloween.
• Strangers in costume - some animals may become unexpectedly aggressive or fearful, even normally friendly pets.
• Candles and Jack-O'-Lanterns within a pet's range are a fire hazard. Wagging tails and frightened cats zooming through the house can easily tip over a candle or carved pumpkin, causing burns or a fire.
• Keep your pets indoors on Halloween night, especially black cats. Animals are at risk for cruel treatment by some Halloween pranksters. Many adoption agencies and humane societies will not allow adoption of black cats around Halloween for this reason.
• Candy - For many people, Halloween = candy. Many pets have a sweet tooth. Please warn children not to share their goodies with the family pet.

Vaccinate 250 Dogs Against Rabies By CLICKING

Your Daily Clicks DO matter!  Today you can help stop rabies in 250dogs just by going to the Animal Rescue Site and Clicking on the purple CLICK HERE button!

Vaccinate 250 Dogs 

Against Rabies

Stopping rabies in dogs is the key to preventing the disease in people. Locally, encourage pet owners to have their animals vaccinated. Internationally, support organizations like Global Alliance for Rabies Control in their efforts to beat rabies — and prevent thousands of deaths. Although rabies is 99.9% fatal for children in the developing world, it is 100% preventable if street dogs and domestic pets are vaccinated.

Demand Justice for Dolphins in the Gulf

Dolphins across the northern Gulf of Mexico have been dying in high numbers for an unprecedented three years in a row.

And in a section of the Louisiana coast that was badly affected by the BP oil spill, dolphins are suffering from anemia, low hormone levels, low blood sugar, and signs of liver damage--symptoms that point to oil exposure.

But even as dolphins are struggling, BP is in court contesting charges the company violated multiple federal laws--money from the outcome of this case will help restore the Gulf and its wildlife.

But recent media reports indicate BP might be trying to settle for less than half of what the company could pay if held fully accountable.
