Tips for Keeping Our Pets Safe on Thanksgiving

The time of year is approaching where we can loosen our belts and dig in to wonderful meals with our families.  Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday by far because I stuff my face with my family and friends and somehow don’t feel guilty about it:)  I don’t know about you guys, but it is terribly hard not to let my dog and cat enjoy some of the amazing food with me. I am usually very strict about feeding them any “people” food, but those rules seem to go out the window around Thanksgiving. With that said, I am still very careful about what and how much people food they get from the Thanksgiving table.  Always error on giving only a small amount and make sure to research or ask your veterinarian about what foods are ok for your furry family members. Below is a good short article with some tips from the ASPCA on what and how much we can feed our dogs and cats and a short list I found that has some foods not to feed (not complete).
