cleaning

It's Spring time....time to clean! While you're at it...why not make your house safe for your
cat! If ingested the following items could be a potential health risk. For example, eating yarn
or thread can be very dangerous. These items can easily get twisted and caught up in the
intestines! Paper clips can cause internal puncture wounds and the stuffing in some toys
can be dangerous too! If you own a cat, take a minute to look around your house and make
sure that it is a safe haven for your precious pet! If you think your cat has eaten something
dangerous, contact your veterinarian immediately.
