Give thanks, but not while at the Emergency Vet!

As you bake, baste, and sauté your way into a delicious Thanksgiving, make sure you are not offering your pets your tasty scraps that could be toxic to them!

Here is a table scrap checklist:

OK as Snacks:

• Lean bits of cooked turkey, beef, pork or fish without the skin and without bones.
• Raw vegetables other than onions or garlic. Good choices are carrots, celery, lettuce and cabbage hearts.
• Cooked vegetables without butter and salt (no onions or garlic).
• Plain raw pumpkin.
• Peanut butter is ok, but it very oily and high in calories. Give sparingly.

NOT OK as Snacks:

• Anything with raisins
• Anything with grapes
• Anything with onions
• Anything starchy (bread, potatoes, pasta)
• Desserts
• Anything with chocolate
• Anything with sugar
• Anything with alcohol
• Macadamia nuts
• Raw meat
• Bones
• Turkey skin/chicken skin
