🐣🌸 Happy Easter from our team! 🌸🐣

Easter is a wonderful time for family, fun… and lots of chocolate 🍫 — but it can be dangerous for our furry friends.

⚠️ Did you know?
Chocolate contains theobromine, which is toxic to dogs and cats. Even small amounts can cause serious illness, especially dark chocolate.

🐾 Signs of chocolate toxicity include:
• Vomiting or diarrhoea
• Restlessness or hyperactivity
• Increased heart rate
• Tremors or seizures

🐶 Keep pets safe this Easter:
🐰 Store all chocolate and treats out of reach
🐰 Remind kids not to share sweets with pets
🐰 Be mindful of Easter egg hunts (check the area afterward)
🐰 Opt for pet-safe treats instead

🚨 If your pet eats chocolate:
Don’t wait for symptoms, contact your vet immediately. The sooner we act, the better the outcome.

We’re here if you need us.
wishing you and your pets a safe, happy, and chocolate-free Easter! 🐾
