Avoid Giving Onions And Garlic To Pets

 


Human food tastes better when flavorful herbs and spices such as garlic and onions are added to it. However, while it is safe for human consumption, it is never advisable for your pet cat or dog.

Both garlic and onions contain sulfuric components that are converted into oxidizing chemicals that are harmful to dogs and cats. These chemicals are still present in onions and garlic even when cooked. Unfortunately, these toxic chemicals can burst the red blood cells which could be fatal for your pet.

Some of the common signs of onion and garlic poisoning in pets are the following:

●Nausea and vomiting

●Drooling

●Stomachache

●Extreme tiredness or weakness

Signs of garlic and onion poisoning in pets may not be visible right away. The gravity of the effects depends on how much has been consumed and how long ago was it when your pet ate garlic or onion. Take your pet to the nearest veterinary center New Albany, IN as soon as you notice any unusual behavior for proper medical intervention.
