Keep the Holidays Safe for Pets & Wildlife! ✨🎄

As we deck the halls and celebrate the season, let’s not forget our furry and feathered friends! Here are some tips to ensure a safe and happy holiday for pets and wildlife alike:  

🐶Pet Safety Tips:
            - Secure holiday lights and decorations to prevent chewing.  
            - Avoid toxic plants like poinsettias, mistletoe, and holly.  
            - Keep chocolate, candy, and table scraps away from curious paws.  
            - Create a cozy, quiet space for pets to retreat if holiday gatherings get overwhelming.  

🦉Wildlife-Friendly Tips:  
           - Decorate outdoors with biodegradable items like popcorn garlands.  
           - Keep trash bins secure to protect wildlife from harmful scraps.  
           - If feeding birds, clean feeders regularly to prevent disease.  
           - Leave water out for thirsty critters during cold weather.
