Think carefully
about pets
Multnomah County Animal Con
trol urges people to think carefully
before yielding to the temptation o f
buying a puppy or kitten as a Christ
mas present. The noise, confusion,
and activities o f this holiday season
make the anim al’s transition into a
new household very difficult. Often
young animals are given as presents
to people who can’t provide for all
their needs, or whose lifestyles are
unsuitable to that particular animal
Remember, animals are not toys—
they are living beings w ith special
needs.
Christmas can be dangerous to all
pets— old and new. The distinctive
holiday season plants— mistletoe,
holly, and poinsettia— are poison
ous and should be placed where pets
can’t chew on them. Electric wires
and Christmas decorations are often
tempting to pet* who like to chew,
and pet owners must take precau
tions to prevent a needless tragedy.

Omo Toyo Fletcher. Mary Alice Avry, and Joyce
Harris. The workshop on Kwanza was sponsored by
the Black Education Canter.
