We all look forward to chocolate and hot cross buns at Easter BUT CHOCOLATE and RAISINS are POISONOUS to rabbits, cats and dogs.
CHOCOLATE contains a substance called theobromine which causes
- Digestive upsets
- Abnormal heart rhythm
- Hyperactivity
- Seizures
HOT CROSS BUNS contain raisins and other dried fruit which can cause
- Digestive upsets
- Decreased urination
- Increased or decreased thirst
- lethargy and depression
A poisoning can occur in minutes and can be fatal.
If you know or suspect that your pet has eaten chocolate or raisins CALL YOUR VET IMMEDIATELY.
