It’s Halloween time -  Here are a few tips to help keep your pets safe this Halloween:

• Keep candy out of reach of animals, and make sure to keep an eye on them near the candy dish. Sugary sweets -- especially chocolate -- can be toxic to pets.(don’ts at marthastewart.com halloween pet safety)
• Don’t let your cats play with leftover candy wrappers. Packaging may provide endless amusement for cats, but it can lead to stomach problems if ingested.
• Keep pets far away from the door during treat-or-treat time if they're sensitive to noises and new people. The frequent doorbell ringing and visitors in costume can agitate some pets. As a measure of caution, make sure your pet has a collar with tags or a microchip so that it can be returned quickly should it get loose.
• Make sure that your pet's costume doesn't have any small parts that can become choking hazards.
• DO Send us your photos of your pet in their Halloween Costumes! Photos can be uploaded on our Contact Us page.
