Halloween can be a fun time for children & families, but for some pets, it�s can be a nightmare. Skip the stress & keep your pets safe this year.

? Ensure your pets don�t have access to Halloween lollies, especially those containing chocolate or xylitol (a common sugar substitute found in sugar-free lollies and gum)

? Pets can easily become anxious & frightened with the doorbell constantly ringing seeing children in strange clothes & masks. Confining them to their own safe haven for the evening can help calm nerves & prevent them from running out of the constantly opening front door.

? Make sure your pet is properly identified (microchip, collar and ID tag) in case they escapes through open doors while you�re distracted with trick-or-treaters;

? If you plan to put a costume on your pet, make sure it fits properly & is comfortable, doesn�t have pieces that can easily be chewed off, and doesn�t interfere with your pet�s sight, hearing, breathing, opening its mouth, or moving. Never leave your pet unsupervised while they are wearing a costume
