Cherry pits are toxic to your pets!
Cherry trees are starting to drop their cherries. If you have a goofy enough dog that would eat them, remember that the pits are toxic. They contain cyanide. Symptoms can include rapid breathing, vomiting, & salivation to name a few. If you suspect your dog has ingested multiple pits get him to your vet immediately.

How do seabirds filter seawater?
ever wonder where seabirds (gulls, pelicans, penguins, etc.) get their fresh water? they have a pair of salt glands (supraorbital) that filter out the salt and turn this into brine that drips out their noses. ever see a gull tilting his head down and water drips out? that's what's happening. Other animals that also have salt glands, include sea turtles, crocodiles (crocodile tears) and sharks.

Cat uses 1 of 9 lives
Lily Ingestion
There are dangerous and benign lilies--and the dangerous ones can be deadly. Peace, Peruvian, and Calla lilies contain oxalate crystals that cause minor signs of illness, such as tissue irritation in the mouth, tongue, pharynx, and esophagus, which, in turn, causes minor drooling. The potentially fatal lilies are true lilies, including Tiger, Day, Asiatic, Easter, and Japanese Show lilies. These are all highly toxic to cats. Even small ingestions (such as eating the pollen or just two to three petals or leaves) can result in kidney failure.
