Make Valentine's Day safe for your furry four legged loved one...
- Remove all dangerous flora from any flower arrangement, especially any species of lily that are potentially fatal to cats.
- Don't leave chocolate out for chowhounds to find.
- Make sure to drink that last sip of wine, champagne or liquor. Even a little bit of alcohol can do a lot of harm should your furry friend lap it up.
- Keep Fido away from treats sweetened with xylitol (most gum and candy). This sweetener can result in a sudden drop in blood sugar.
- Every rose has a thorn and thorns can be dangerous if chewed, swallowed or stepped on.
- Don't forget to gather up all the ribbons, bows, wrapping paper, cellophane and balloons. They may look fun to play with but could cause problems if swallowed.
