Never leave pets alone
inside a parked car
On an 85 degree day, for example, the
temperature inside a car with the windows
opened slightly can reach 102 degrees within
10 minutes. After 30 minutes, the temperature
will reach 120 degrees. Pets may suffer
irreversible organ damage or die.

Antifreeze
As the summer days get warmer, cars that overheat
may leak antifreeze. Pets are drawn to the sweetness
of this toxic chemical. Even when ingested in very small
amounts, antifreeze is poisonous to animals, and a
veterinarian should be contacted immediately. Some
public fountains may contain antifreeze, do not let
pets drink from them.
