WISHBONE'S TIPS - KEEPING YOUR PETS SAFE AS WINTER WINDS DOWN (WE HOPE!)

With Heavy rains, snow and continuing low temperatures through the Month of March Wishbone wants to remind you of a few tips to help keep the furry friends safe. Rule Number 1 is, as always, Get Lots Of Rest!

1. When in doubt, bring them in. - If you are concerned that it might be too cold for your pets, bring them in. Puppies, smaller dogs, older dogs and cats are especially at risk.
2. Watch out for antifreeze! - Antifreeze has a sweet taste that is attractive to Dogs. It can cause sickness or death if ingested. Keep containers up high and clean up spills immediately.
3. Look out for Feral Friends. - Cats that live outdoors cannot protect themselves from the weather extremes. Consider providing a feral cat shelter for them.
4. Don't leave Pets in the car. - Leaving your pet in the car during extreme cold is dangerous. The car can act like a freezer, trapping in cold air.
5. Watch for Frost. - Pay close attention to paw pads, tails and ears. If you think your pet may have frostbite or hypothermia contact your Veterinarian.

Here is a fact you probably never knew. Or thought about. And one you probably still won't care about. You'll likely forget this by the time you next blink. But we're going to tell you anyway. There's a reason your lower cabinets are lifted and protrude slightly. Aesthetic? No, it might look aesthetic but it's not done just for aesthetic reasons. The area, called a toe kick, allows you to stand closer to the counter while you're cooking. Really.
