Sago Palm Can Be Deadly For Pets



The Sago Palm has beautiful feathery foliage and is a very popular plant that is easy to grow either indoor or outdoor as it requires minimal care. However, this beautiful plant can be deadly for your pet.  It is important to be aware that while all parts of the Sago Palm are poisonous,  the seed (nut) is considered the most toxic as it contains the most Cycasin, which can lead to severe liver failure in dogs.

A dog can start to have a reaction within 15 minutes of ingesting the plant, but it can also take several hours which may make it difficult to know what is causing your pet the distress.  The amount ingested relative to the size of your pet can affect the level of toxicity. Every minute can count and the key to a favorable outcome is to seek immediate medical attention if you think your pet has consumed Sago Palm.

With early detection and quick treatment, a positive prognosis is possible and many dogs and cats make a full recovery. But, fast action is essential so that a veterinarian can use medical treatments to eliminate the toxin.  Short-term and long-term supportive care for liver function will also most likely be required.

Common signs of Sago Palm Poisoning
·         Vomiting
·         Diarrhea
·         Lethargy
·         Inappetence
·         Abnormal fluid accumulation in the abdomen
·         Abdominal pain
·         Jaundice

Many Cats Love The Outdoors But How To Keep Them Safe?



It’s a big world outside and so much to explore. Cats have a natural curiosity that can be stimulated by the sights, sounds and smells; as well as other exciting things like insects, shadows, birds and plants in the great outdoors.  Keeping your cat safe outdoors is a challenge however as there are cars, predators, bully cats,  poisonous plants and dangerous substances.  Having a "catio" is an ideal situation where kitty can enjoy the outdoors but remain safe.  Catios come in different varieties, multi-levels with all kinds of perches and designs for backyards and window boxes.  Other options include training your kitty to walk on a harness or walking together in a stroller.  If you do let your cat outside, be sure your kitty has a microchip and collar with a current ID tag.
