It’s another one of those holidays…

You know, the kind when dogs eat chocolate and people surf the web looking for information about how horrible this is, how quickly their dog is going to die and how big the vet bill is going to be.  While Christmas isn’t quite as big for dogs and chocolate as Halloween, it’s been busy around here with the search engine folks.

There have been more cats ingesting chocolate and candy than in previous candy-filled holidays, (at least based on the numbers of people arriving here via search engines).  So far, none of our cats have had any chocolate.  Megan was eating a plastic bag that held chocolate but she always eats plastic bags, so that’s not really anything unusual. 

Also, it seems some dogs have been getting into the Christmas ham and this is troubling to some people.  It’s troubling to me to see TW tossing scraps to the dogs but I don’t really think a bit of ham is going to be a problem for most dogs (or cats).  It never has been for any of ours.  Jake will sometimes open the refrigerator door and nibble from the ham or turkey if it’s on the bottom shelf and not in sealed tupperware.  He’s still alive and well and here to nibble on RJ’s Christmas candy without any ill effects.

Happy holidays to all of you, and to your pets, too.
