Festive food can be poisonous to pets
Festive food is delicious to us, but to our pets, much of it is highly toxic and dangerous.
Avoid giving your pets these foods as treats as it can make them unwell:
- Chocolate
- Mince pies
- Christmas pudding
- Onion gravy
- Alcohol
- Bones from carcasses - these are a dangerous choking hazard
What Christmas food can pets eat?
Skinless and boneless white meat such as turkey is okay for dogs and cats, but be careful that it's not covered in fat, salt or gravy. It's best for your pets to stick to their normal food.
