Precautions

Supervise pets during initial consumption, ensuring proper chewing and safe swallowing without choking hazards or excessive consumption.

Introduce veggie treats gradually over 3-5 days, allowing digestive system adjustment and preventing gastrointestinal upset or diarrhea from dietary changes.

These treats are supplemental enrichment and cannot replace unlimited daily loose timothy hay or species-appropriate pelleted food foundation.

Monitor your pet for digestive changes when introducing treats, particularly if they have pre-existing sensitivities or dietary restrictions.

Discontinue immediately if digestive upset, loss of appetite, or allergic reactions occur, suggesting individual sensitivity requiring veterinary consultation.
