Cat owners are tensely awaiting the New Year. In such cases, the question arises: how to protect the Christmas tree from the cat, and the cat from the New Year's decorations?

To ensure that the holiday does not turn into a complete headache for pet owners, listen to the advice of veterinarians.

In an interview with Sputnik radio, veterinarian Angelina Sirotina explained the danger that Christmas tree decorations pose for cats and dogs.

Firstly, Christmas decorations attract the attention of kittens and puppies.

In particular, it is tinsel that animals try to eat. If they succeed, it will turn into a lump in their stomach.

It can only be removed through surgery.

Therefore, it makes sense to avoid tinsel and similar decorations.

Secondly, cat and dog owners should avoid rustling and shiny paper decorations.

Thirdly, you need to securely fasten the tree itself, and use unbreakable toys just in case.

Repellent sprays and other tricks will help protect you from trouble.
