With spring and Mother’s Day just around the corner, flowers are a very popular gift for many but some of them come with risks to our pets.
There are a number of things our pets are allergic to from certain foods to plants. And with Mother's Day fast approaching, pet owners are being warned which flowers to avoid.
What flowers should pet owners avoid this Mother's Day? Tulips A springtime favourite for many are tulips. Although they make for a pretty centrepiece, dog and cat owners will need to be wary as this is not a suitable flower to have inside the home. Peonies Peonies are stunning - but as a pet owners - it's not one for you. The expert advises that people should avoid them as the peony plant contains paenol - a type of compound which is toxic to dogs and cats.
