A kitten or puppy may be a wonderful gift you received this holiday season. Few events compare with the arrival of a new member of the family to care for and enjoy! Here are a few tips to ensure the safety of your new kitten or pup:

Don’t leave you new companion unattended, especially when it comes to puppies!

• Provide a “safe zone” such as a crate or box with a soft place to sleep
• Be patient as your new friend adjusts to your environment
• Keep them clear of dangers such as medications or plants
• Provide fresh water and food appropriate for his or her age
