Small Objects and Choking Risks

Small items such as buttons, coins, and jewelry can be hazardous if swallowed. Pets, especially young ones, may find these objects enticing. Keep these items securely stored in containers or drawers. Additionally, be mindful of household items like rubber bands, paperclips, and sewing needles, as these can cause choking or intestinal blockages. It’s essential to regularly sweep and vacuum your floors to reduce the risk of pets encountering these small objects.
