Animal Safety

• Never sneak up on an animal. Approach from the side.
• Never approach any animal, even your own, when he or she is eating, sleeping, chewing on a toy.
• Always pet an animal gently. No pulling or tugging, and never from behind.
• Ask the owner before petting an animal that you don’t know.
• Remember that animals have feelings!
