Top 10 Household Pet Poisons Of 2009

Home » News » Top 10 Household Pet Poisons Of 2009

In 2009, the ASPCA’s Animal Poison Control Center (APCC) in Urbana, IL, handled more than 140,000 cases of pets exposed to toxic substances, many of which included everyday household products.

They tabulated a list of the top 10 poisons that are commonly found around our homes in an effort to further raise public awareness about the potential dangers. They are listed below in order of occurrence.

If you suspect your pet has ingested something toxic, do not waste any time. Contact your veterinarian or local Veterinary Emergency Clinic IMMEDIATELY. For further information about potential toxins in your house, speak with your veterinary clinic or go to www.aspca.org/pet-care/poison-control/ .
