How to keep your pets safe

Protecting your pets is crucial when temperatures drop and winter weather moves in. Weather & Radar meteorologist Mary Mays has tips for keeping your furry friends safe in chilly weather.

Winter weather can be hazardous for your pets, but there are a few things you can do to keep them safe:

  • Limit the time they spend outdoors in cold temperatures.
  • Consider dressing them in sweaters, coats, and boots.
  • Check their paws when you come back inside and remove snow and ice.
  • Keep antifreeze and other dangerous chemicals away from your pets.
  • Check underneath your vehicle's hood for cats and other small animals before driving.
