Is Wood Toxic To Pocket Pets?



Do you know that wood can be toxic to pets too? It may sound weird, but both humans and animals may get sick when exposed to fumes. Aside from that, dust from wood can also cause lung issues in animals.


If your pet's immune system is weak and he is exposed to strong fumes, he may develop serious issues with the respiratory system. Your pet may not be able to complain, but they can acquire asthma symptoms such as wheezing and coughing. Such conditions can be fatal without proper medical intervention.


In addition, some studies show that all wood dust, including cedarwood dust, can affect your pet’s liver and its functions. Exposure to these objects can cause health issues for pets. However, the major effects are not yet fully established as the research is still ongoing.


If you know that your pet has been exposed to these materials, bring him to the vet Chesapeake, VA right away for proper treatment.
