Cat Owner Whose Cat Nearly Died Warns People of the Dangers of Owning a Salt Lamp Around Pets
Every pet owner needs to be fully aware of the various items in their home that might be dangerous for their pets. For example, we all know that chocolate is poisonous to dogs, but there are still many other dangers that most of us are unaware of.
Himalayan salt lamps should definitely be added to the list of dangerous items that pets should not be around. These trendy decorations might look pretty, but they can be deadly for your cat.
Maddie Smith is a cat owner from New Zealand who decided to share the consequences of owning a salt lamp in a Facebook post. Her post gained significant traction on Facebook and has also been shared by various veterinary clinics.
Every cat owner should be aware of how dangerous Himalayan salt lamps are to cats. Vets have been warning people ever since one woman's cat almost passed away.
After Smith's cat Ruby started exhibiting odd behavior and 'walking really strangely,' she initially didn't think much of it and assumed that Ruby might just be chilly, so she wrapped her up in blankets and left. However, when they returned home, they were surprised to find that Ruby's condition had worsened significantly.
Here's Rose Avenue Vet Hospital's post about this issue.
Many other pet owners were grateful that this woman decided to share her experience.
So Close to Danger
Great Idea!
