TVM has produced veterinary practice waiting room poster to highlight the hazards to pets in the autumn.

Common ‘Pet Dangers’ include:  

• Human cold and flu medication 
• Rat poison  
• Xylitol  
• Chocolate  
• Anti-freeze  
• Acorns and conkers  
• Mushrooms 
• Mouldy food  

 The poster also reinforces the importance of S.P.E.E.D when dealing with poisoned pets: 

1. Stop the pet eating any more suspected poison 
2. Phone the vets 
3. Emergency appointment  
4. Evidence – bring labels/samples/vomit 
5. Don’t delay!
