pet safety

With winter weather in the forecast for Alabama, Huntsville Animal Services is urging pet owners to take extra precautions to ensure their pets stay safe and comfortable. The National Weather Service (NWS) reports freezing rain, ice and snow are predicted along with extreme arctic air.

Even in the South, we have to protect our best friends from winter weather and cold temperatures!

While you're celebrating the end of the old year and the beginning of the new one, remember that those fireworks and loud noises may hurt your pet's sensitive ears and cause pain and even fear!

Some holiday plants and greenery can harm or possibly even kill a pet. Try to keep plants away from pets or use alternative (or artificial) decorations.

Keeping your pet safe is always time well-spent, because it means you are protecting your best friend!

Pets are not in as much danger from the solar eclipse as from mistakes we might make around the event.

As you ring in the New Year, remember to keep your furry friend's safety and well-being in mind!
