Thanksgiving Safety Tips

'Tis the season for friends, family and holiday feasts - but also for possible distress to our animal companions.  Check out the following tips from ASPCA experts for a fulfulling Thanksgiving that your pets can enjoy, too.

-If you decide to feed your pet a little nibble of turkey, make sure it's boneless and well cooked.

-Sage can make you Thanksgiving stuffing taste delish, but it and many other herbs contain essential oils and resins that can cause gastrointestinal upset and central nervous system depression to pets if eaten in large quantities.

- Don't allow your pets to overindulge, as they could wind up with a case of stomach upset, diarrhea or even worse - and inflammatory condition of the pancreas know as pacreatitis.
