[FULL STORY] Halloween Candy: A Toxic Treat for your Pet Christina Mehra, Staff Writer @ VetCentric.com Wouldnt it be nice if I could get even a few of those M&Ms or a lick of that lollipop? This same thought crosses Fluffys mind every Halloween as he sits, drooling, watching his human siblings chowing down on the nights takings. Alas, sharing Halloween candy with the pets has always been a big no-no. Every year, in houses decorated with jack-o-lanterns and cobwebs, savvy pet owners diligently keep childrens goodies (especially chocolatewhich can be toxic to animals) out of pets reach.

The Holiday are Just Around the Corner Why Should I Board My Cat? It is important to remember that cats do not usually travel well. They usually do not enjoy it, nor do they adapt well to travel. Many people who try to take kitty along with them on their vacation end up spending most of their time searching for their escaped pet. Leaving your cat with friends is just as unsatisfactory. Cats must go through an adjustment period in a new environment and this means they will not look upon your friend's house as "home" for quite awhile. Therefore, your cat may try to escape from the strange house at every opportunity or hide as a fear reaction. Most cat owners realize that it is not fair to impose this kind of responsibility on their friends, nor is it an ideal arrangement for their pets. [FULL STORY] QUESTIONS?
