DESCRIPTION:

Each year the ASPCA sponsors National Animal Poison Prevention Week in March.

Pets are highly susceptible to poison, many of which we don't consider harmful to them because they are benign to us. According to healthy pet advocates Four Muddy Paws, the following are the most common toxins for dogs and cats:

Common Dog Poisons

1. Chocolate

3. Vitamins and Minerals (e.g., Vitamin D3, iron, etc.)
4. NSAIDs (e.g., ibuprofen, naproxen, etc.)
5. Cardiac Medications (e.g., calcium channel blockers, beta-blockers, etc.)
6. Cold and Allergy Medications (e.g., pseudoephedrine, phenylephrine, etc.)
7. Antidepressants (e.g., selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors)
8. Xylitol (common in toothpaste and chewing gum)
9. Acetaminophen (e.g., Tylenol)
10. Caffeine Pills

Common Cat Poisons

1. Topical spot-on insecticides
2. Household Cleaners
3. Antidepressants
4. Lilies
5. Insoluble Oxalate Plants (e.g., Dieffenbachia, Philodendron, etc.)
6. Human and Veterinary NSAIDs
