With many batteries, brandy, toys and tinsel, Christmas can be dangerous for pets if the proper precautions are not taken. Our veterinary teams always see a rise in emergency cases during the festive period. 🎅
In 2022, we saw a 62% increase in pet emergencies during the last two weeks in December compared to the first two weeks. We treated 667 pets who had eaten a mince pie, 958 who had eaten chocolate, and 15 who had taken a shine to tinsel.
