This is the most important link that every pet owner should have posted on their refrigerator. Like children, our pets - even in the safety of our homes - may accidentally get into things that are harmful. While your local veterinarian is very knowledgeable, a veternarian cannot know about everything in your house. The animal poison control is a huge data base with a staff of toxicologists that can quickly tell you if there are any concerns. In addition to advising you of immediate care, they will contact your veterinarian and provide any information needed to care for your pet.
