January 2007 Senior Connector www.seniorconnector.com Page 29Pet care tips for the cold weatherDuring the Christmas seasonwe often forget aboutchanges in temperature andhow it may affect our furryfriends.The following is a listof pointers to help you andyour pets enjoy winter.• Do not leave your petutdoors after exercise. Dryyour dog off and bring itndoors to get warm.• Make sure outdoor petsave adequate housing. Thehelter should be kept clean,ry and elevated off theround. The shelter shouldlso be of a size to preserveody heat.• Store antifreeze up andout of reach of pets and children.Antifreeze is extremelytoxic to pets. If you suspectyour pet has swallowed antifreeze,do not hesitate totake your pet to a veterinarian.• Secure garbage bagsand trash can lids. Dogs(and cats) ingest leftoversand decorations, which cancause blockage or intestinaltroubles.• Poinsettias, holly andmistletoe are also toxic.Keep them away from pets.• Keep alcohol away frompets. Alcohol, even in smallamounts, can be toxic andcould result in coma.• Anticipate guests arrivingat your home and confineyour dog to preventaccidental escape through anopen door.• Tuck electrical cordsaway. Puppies and kittenscan chew on these.• Food is the number onehazard during the holidays.Do not feed your pet bones,especially turkey or chicken.They splinter easily and cancause choking. Also, do notfeed your dog chocolate. It isalso toxic and can have seriousconsequences includingdeath. If you put out foodfor guests put your pet awayto be safe!The story of Silent NightThe words of this beautiful carol were born,ore than 100 years ago, in the village ofArnsdorf, Austria.It happened on the night before ChristasEve.The parish priest, Father Josef Mohr, wasroubled. The old organ in the little churchwas broken. He thought of the Christmasve service. If only there could be somepecial music!Coming home from a visit to a parishoner,Father Mohr found himself on theeights overlooking the little village; a fewights glimmered in the silent darkness.So it must have been in Bethlehem onhat silent night, holy night when Christ wasborn.Silent night, Holy night! Words came tohim. He hastened home and put them down.The next day he showed them to theorganist, Franz Gruber. As he read thewords, Gruber felt the beauty of that firstholy night.He began to sing, and those who listenedknew the song would be immortal.There was no organ music in the churchon Christmas Eve.As Father Mohr sang, with Gruberaccompanying him on the guitar, the congregationlistened in wonder to the first renditionof a song that was to be a Christmasgift to all the world – Silent Night.WEDDING BELLS.
