While most cat owners are aware of obvious dangers, like open flame or unclosed doors, some of these hazards are things you would never expect!<br><br>1. Twist Ties<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/zCy8MT3Y5TrFneuyK9syvcOKadyqxQCd4Mi7mU5bIziHxeD_sfHy9vDNQPXRKy-ep7s4MUkFmumhztT5ORxZm3u3TF63P_A5T6tng3sYv2LrYJ8Rd4vmrecZaGM-_-dgMp8BB_o\" alt=\"Twist ties are dangerous to cats if swallowed!\"\/><figcaption><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Twist_tie#\/media\/File:Twist-ties.jpg \">Image Source<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Harmless when holding a bag of bread closed, these innocent-looking little ties can send your cat to the vet if swallowed! Twist ties contain an inner wire. This could become lodged in your cat\u2019s throat, or become entangled as it moves through their digestive system. Other small household items like hair ties or plastic tabs can be dangerous if swallowed, too<br><br>Only provide your cat with toys you know have been <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kitnipbox.com\/#inside\">extensively safety-tested<\/a>. Your kitty might enjoy improvised toys, but a good rule of thumb is to consider whether you would give a toy to an infant before giving it your cat! Just like a baby, cats use their mouths to explore objects they\u2019re curious about, and anything that would be dangerous if swallowed should be immediately suspect.<br><br>2. Washing Machines<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/XsZk-O-CY2tItPfjyPF_I96n7ewhpw__5BR2e2jSxrKPus3ZthbVqnMyERzytVZ4AULJU7pzB1jMfUBPFBga4sn0_YNQEA6XLC7XF86RZnV9IeKPmcXMAMlJUABnKdh66bc9ags\" alt=\"Washing machines pose a danger to kitties.\"\/><figcaption><a href=\"https:\/\/upload.wikimedia.org\/wikipedia\/commons\/b\/b3\/Washing_Machine_Beko.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-0\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\">Image Source<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>These seemingly-innocent household appliances can be deadly to cats! Cats love dark, confined hiding holes, and your washing machine might just seem like the perfect place. Always check washer loads thoroughly before closing the door. A particular danger lies in automatically locking doors. These doors keep the appliance securely closed during use, which can make it difficult to open if you realize your cat is inside. Dryers pose a similar danger, especially to a cat that loves sleeping on fresh laundry!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. Alcohol<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/aOVoe-jSxHorM3Pc7hS2eIcjYWOhEQWOQt2ItlPh9-sdHPxDyJCkse0PYIXhlH4H4WwdnmjA8vj4542_lPJw3QmzF_A2Rf_n87csimgZyM81oAk0bBs3SycNge_xSpnJaTUX3NQ\" alt=\"Alcohol can be harmful to kitties.\"\/><figcaption><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Wine#\/media\/File:Red_and_white_wine_12-2015.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-1\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\">Image Source<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Alcohol can pose another danger to the kitties in your household! Alcoholic beverages, as well as some medications, dyes, inks, cleaning products, gasoline, perfumes, and even mouthwash, can contain ethanol, which is toxic and can poison your pets and damage their nervous system. Additionally, some fermented food products, such as rotten apples or bread dough, can also be harmful if ingested, so it\u2019s important to remember to keep your trash can closed and away from where your kitty can explore. While it may be tempting to allow your cat a sip of your wine at the end of the day, this is one party that\u2019s not safe for your fur friend to attend!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>4.

Lead poisoning can cause <a href=\"https:\/\/www.petmd.com\/cat\/conditions\/digestive\/c_ct_lead_poisoning\">vomiting and diarrhea<\/a> or worse with repeated exposure.
