Pets,
Plants, and Potential Hazards
|
|
Help keep your pet safe from hazardous plant consumption during the summer months when plants and flowers are abundant. Plants are often sprayed with insecticides and treated with fertilizers. These products may mask or alter the adverse clinical signs observed in the animals exposed to a hazardous plant. Even nontoxic plant material may cause physical irritation to the gastrointestinal system and mild stomach upset. Also, sometimes small animals ingest plant material as a result of developing illness; therefore, the signs of illness following a plant ingestion are not always plant induced. |
