63. Yes, cats and dogs will swallow all sorts of things

Mon Mar 8, 2021, 12:55 AM

Mar 2021

When I was a kid in 4-H we got to tour the state veterinary lab. They had a big display of things pets had swallowed. Not only needles, thread, yarn, but coins, keys, and all sorts of objects. Ever since I have been very careful about what my pets can get hold of. I keep having to fuss at my husband since he leaves hair bands around - he's still has his long hippy hair even though he'd going bald on top. He looks a bit like Ben Franklin!

Take care for Sammy!
