Keep holiday decorations, plants, and foods safe and out of reach to protect pets from poisoning, choking, or injury. Create a quiet, secure space for pets during festivities to help reduce stress from noise and guests.

Holiday Hazards

Don't feed your pets Halloween candy, especially if it contains chocolate or xylitol (a common sugar substitute found in sugar-free candies and gum)

Halloween can be Hairy for Pets

Eating turkey or turkey skin - sometimes even a small amount - can cause a life-threatening condition in pets known as pancreatitis. Fatty foods are hard for animals to digest, and many foods that are healthy for people are poisonous to pets - including onions, raisins and grapes. If you want to share a Thanksgiving treat with your pet, make or buy a treat that is made just for them.

Thanksgiving Thoughts

Take steps to ensure your pet's health during cold weather.

Cold Weather Safety Tips

Did you know that pets can suffer from allergies just like humans? However, unlike humans who show symptoms like sneezing, coughing, and itchy eyes, pets usually exhibit allergic reactions through their skin. This can lead to allergies in pets often being overlooked or misdiagnosed as other illnesses.

<p dir="auto">Sydney joined Lafayette Animal Hospital in the fall of 2018 and started off at the front desk. The team quickly recognized her passion for medicine and transitioned her into a technician position shortly after. Sydney attended Great Bay Community College and upon her graduation in 2023, she passed the Veterinary Technician National Exam to become a Certified Veterinary Technician. You will mostly find Sydney taking the lead in our surgical and anesthetic cases, but she has a passion for emergency and urgent care visits as well! When Sydney is not at work, you will find her spending time with her husband and their three dogs – JD, Dozer, and Champ.</p><h6 dir="auto"></h6><p dir="auto"></p>
