We all love our pets and invest over $120 billion annually in their care, striving to feed, protect, and keep them healthy. However, pets are exposed to numerous toxins, including heavy metals and chemicals, that can impact their health through the air they breathe, the water they drink, and the food they eat. Like humans, animals can suffer from harmful chemicals in their surroundings. Indoor and outdoor air pollution can expose pets to toxins like lead, exhaust fumes, and fumes from treated wood, rugs, and synthetic fibers. Outgassing from cleaners, detergents, perfumes, and lotions can irritate their sensitive respiratory systems. Additionally, flea collars, sprays, and shampoos may introduce chemicals absorbed through the skin or inhaled.
Toxic Food and Water
Certain human foods can be highly toxic to pets and should always be kept out of their reach. Chocolate, especially dark or baking varieties, contains theobromine, which is dangerous to dogs and cats. Grapes and raisins can cause sudden kidney failure, even in small amounts. Onions and garlic, whether raw, cooked, or powdered, can damage pets’ red blood cells, leading to anemia. Xylitol, a sugar substitute found in sugar-free gum, candy, and baked goods, can trigger severe liver failure and dangerously low blood sugar levels.
Pets are also vulnerable to contaminants in their water and pet food. Tap water may contain pollutants like heavy metals, pesticides, or chemicals from agricultural runoff. Commercial pet food can contain harmful additives, including hormones, antibiotics, and toxic preservatives. Moldy or expired pet food can produce dangerous mycotoxins. To keep pets safe, provide filtered water and choose high-quality, natural pet food from reputable sources whenever possible.
