The neighborhood is
getting spookier as Halloween crawls closer and closer. Horrific decorations
adorn festive homes while they search for the best costume continues. Little do
pet parents know the candy and décor of Halloween could end up being dangerous
for household pets.
Veterinary Pet Insurance Co. (VPI) released its Top Halloween PetDangers and Safety Tips on Oct. 15 to help educate pet parents about how this
scary holiday could negatively affect their pet. VPI reports that in the United States alone
consumers spend $7 billion on Halloween candy, decorations, and costumes.
Unfortunately having all of these seemingly benign holiday objects in the home
means that consumers could be exposing their pets to toxic or hazardous things.
