🦃 Holiday Table: What Pets Can & Can’t Eat

🦃 Holiday Table: What Pets Can & Can’t Eat

 

Thanksgiving is full of tempting aromas that have tails wagging and noses twitching — but not everything on the table is safe for our furry family members.

 

✅ Safe in Small Amounts:

 

• Plain turkey (no skin, seasoning, or gravy)

• Plain cooked sweet potatoes

• Carrots

• Green beans (no butter or garlic)

• Pumpkin (pure, not pie filling)

 

🚫 Dangerous Foods:

 

• Stuffing (garlic, onions, herbs)

• Turkey skin & gravy (high fat → pancreatitis risk)

• Chocolate

• Grapes & raisins

• Macadamia nuts

• Xylitol (found in sugar-free desserts)

 

👉 Rule of paw: If it’s seasoned for humans, it’s probably unsafe for pets.
