🚨 WILDFIRE PET SAFETY ALERT

Emergency vet Stevie Aitken shared essential wildfire tips for pet owners: Keep pets indoors to avoid smoke exposure, and wipe their paws after walks to prevent soot ingestion. 

Consider dog goggles and canine masks to protect their eyes and lungs.

Pack a pet go-bag with seven days of food, water, meds, a leash, ID tags, photos, and medical records. Always use carriers for smaller pets like cats or bunnies.

Signs of smoke distress include coughing, red eyes, or trouble breathing — call a vet if symptoms occur.
