Keep the holidays merry, bright, and vet-emerg-free. 🎄🐾

Here are 5 sneaky holiday hazards to avoid:

1️⃣ Salt dough ornaments
Surprisingly, these are one of the top holiday hazards because they smell like snacks. A single nibble can spike sodium levels and lead to dangerous salt toxicity.

2️⃣ Tinsel & ribbon
Shiny, stringy, and irresistible. If swallowed, they act like “festive spaghetti” that can bunch up in the intestines and require surgery.

3️⃣ Holiday plants (lilies, holly, mistletoe, poinsettia, amaryllis, etc)
Pretty poison. Lilies can cause kidney failure, while holly, mistletoe, poinsettia, and amaryllis can irritate the mouth and upset the stomach.

4️⃣ Cords & lights
Dangly, sparkly, and chew-tempting. One bite can cause burns or electrical shock. We do use lights — but they are only on when we’re right beside the tree. Safer for the cats and greener for the planet.

5️⃣ Essential oils & diffusers
Many holiday oils — like pine, peppermint, and eucalyptus — are toxic to cats and can affect their liver and breathing.

Small swaps go a long way: plant alternatives, no stringy décor, and baking-soda ornaments instead of salt dough.
