However, a few simple precautions can help keep your pet safe. Pets are not \u201cmini people.\u201d Animals react to substances in food and medicines differently than people do, so just because something doesn\u2019t make a person sick doesn\u2019t mean it is OK for a pet. Also, most pets are much smaller than people, so what may seem like a harmless amount of a food or drug can make them sick. Pets are curious. If something smells good, they\u2019ll eat it. If they can get into a container, they will. Be aware of what substances may be toxic to your pet, and store and use them safely.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">Download a handout that can be printed and distributed to the pet owners at your clinic or hospital by hitting the &#8220;Download PDF&#8221; button below.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/todaysveterinarypractice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2019\/03\/TVP-2019_Common_Household_Poisons.pdf\" class=\"su-button su-button-style-soft\" style=\"color:#333;background-color:#008080;border-color:#006767;border-radius:10px\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"color:#333;padding:8px 26px;font-size:20px;line-height:30px;border-color:#4da7a7;border-radius:10px;text-shadow:none\"><i class=\"sui sui-arrow-circle-right\" style=\"font-size:20px;color:#333\"><\/i> <strong>Download PDF<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Many common food items or household products can sicken or even kill animals. <\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Be aware of what substances may be toxic to your pet, and store and use them safely. <\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">If you think your pet has eaten something poisonous, call your veterinarian or an animal poison hotline immediately.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">What food and household items are poisonous for dogs and cats?<\/span><\/h2>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">CHOCOLATE<\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"> If you suspect that your pet has consumed any amount of any chocolate, call your veterinarian. However, not all chocolate is equally dangerous to pets. In general, the darker the chocolate, the more toxic it is to animals. Baker\u2019s chocolate and cocoa powder are the most dangerous because they contain the highest concentration of substances called methylxanthines. Pets that eat too much of these substances can have vomiting, diarrhea, excessive thirst and urination, hyperactivity, and in severe cases, increased heart rate, abnormal heart rhythms, tremors, and seizures. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">OTHER FOOD <\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">It is generally not a good idea to give your pet table food. Many human foods can cause digestive upset or pancreatitis, which can be severe. Even if the food is not known to be toxic, it can still contain mycotoxins, which are substances produced by mold that can cause neurologic signs. Also, several common ingredients in human food can be toxic to pets. Just a few are: <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Avocados <\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Grapes and raisins. These are sometimes recommended as treats for dogs. However, cases of serious kidney damage have been reported in dogs, cats, and ferrets that consume them.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Macadamia nuts <\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Onions, garlic, and chives <\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Xylitol. This is a common sugar-free sweetener, often found in chewing gum, foods (including peanut butter), dental products, and medications and supplements. Xylitol can lower the blood sugar in the body and cause life-threatening liver failure. <\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Yeast dough <\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Some beverages, such as coffee and alcohol<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">In general, do not store or leave food meant for you and your family in a place where your pet may be able to get to it. Take special care during holiday seasons and festive occasions, when it is very easy to become distracted and leave food or drinks on a counter or coffee table.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><div class=\"su-box su-box-style-soft\" id=\"\" style=\"border-color:#003d45;border-radius:3px;\"><div class=\"su-box-title\" style=\"background-color:#007078;color:#ffffff;border-top-left-radius:1px;border-top-right-radius:1px\">Top 10 Pet Poisons<\/div><div class=\"su-box-content su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\" style=\"border-bottom-left-radius:1px;border-bottom-right-radius:1px\">The ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center handles more than 180,000 cases of pet poisonings every year. Based on those cases, the top 10 offenders are:<\/p>\n<p><div class=\"su-row\"><div class=\"su-column su-column-size-1-2\"><div class=\"su-column-inner su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\"><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span class=\"s1\">Over-the counter medications <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"s1\">Human prescription medications <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"s1\">Insecticides <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"s1\">Human foods <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"s1\">Household items (e.g., cleaning products, fire logs, paints)<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/div><\/div> <div class=\"su-column su-column-size-1-2\"><div class=\"su-column-inner su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\"><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span class=\"s1\">Veterinary medications (e.g., wrong medication, wrong amount, wrong animal) <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"s1\">Chocolate <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"s1\">Plants <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"s1\">Rodenticides <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"s1\">Lawn and garden products<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span class=\"s1\">MEDICINES <\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">Never give your pet a medicine meant for people unless you\u2019ve been told to by a veterinary professional. Many common over-the-counter drugs can be extremely toxic to pets. Don\u2019t leave medicine bottles out where pets can reach them (a determined dog can chew through a childproof cap), and pick up any dropped pills immediately. Use the same caution with dietary supplements or with products you buy at a health food store. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"s1\">CLEANING PRODUCTS <\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">Read the warning labels on the household cleaning products you use, and store as directed. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"s1\">OUTDOOR HAZARDS <\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">If you have a garage, shed, or garden, you probably have at least some of the following: <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span class=\"s1\">Plants: Learn which plants can be toxic to pets and under what circumstances. Tomatoes, for example, are in the nightshade family. Many lilies, flowers, and common ornamental shrubs can be toxic. The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) maintains a comprehensive online list (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.aspca.org\/apcc\">www.aspca.org\/apcc<\/a>). <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"s1\">Pest poisons: Poisons meant to kill rodents, insects, or weeds are very common causes of poisoning in pets. Be very careful how you apply and store any poisons around your home. <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"s1\">Garden products: Cocoa mulch, fertilizers, and compost piles are also unsafe for pets. Make sure any mulch or fertilizer you apply to your yard is safe for pets to play in (and possibly eat). Keep your pet out of areas treated with toxic products. Compost piles can grow bacteria and fungi that are highly toxic to pets, so if you have a compost pile, make sure your pet cannot get into it, and don\u2019t compost dairy or meat items. <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"s1\">Garage chemicals: Any chemical in your garage can be dangerous to pets. Antifreeze, in particular, can be deadly. Store all chemicals out of reach of your pet (just as you would for children), and carefully mop up any spills.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"su-box su-box-style-soft\" id=\"\" style=\"border-color:#003d45;border-radius:3px;\"><div class=\"su-box-title\" style=\"background-color:#007078;color:#ffffff;border-top-left-radius:1px;border-top-right-radius:1px\">In an Emergency\u2026<\/div><div class=\"su-box-content su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\" style=\"border-bottom-left-radius:1px;border-bottom-right-radius:1px\">If your pet does eat something he or she shouldn\u2019t, time is critical. Call your veterinarian or an animal poison hotline immediately and be prepared to describe the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span class=\"s1\">What your pet ate <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"s1\">How long ago <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"s1\">How much <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">The ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center\u2019s hotline number is <strong>888-426-4435<\/strong>. The Pet Poison Helpline number is <strong>855-764-7661<\/strong>. (Note: Callers will be charged a consultation fee.) <\/span><\/p>\n<p>If possible, bring some of the substance, including any available packaging, with you if you are asked to bring your pet in for an examination.<\/div><\/div>\n<p>Want to provide your clients with more easy-to-read, evidence-based guidance?
