Big Thanks to Cristina Maldonado who is an advocate for our beloved dogs and cats who are dying or ill due to cyanobacteria toxicity in the waters.
I have been following her and all dog and cat related illnesses due to this poisoning and wanted to share just a handful of these heartbreaking posts below. A Go Fund Me Page has been set up to help these pets and the link is at the bottom of this post.
Christina shares with us a video she shot today "Caution to All Pet Owners" that I have posted at the bottom of this post. She did it after I posted this earlier.
Please watch and share with anyone you know who has dogs and near the water.
This happens very quickly for dogs and cats and you must get them to the vet quickly. When animals are exposed to this toxin, they may experience vomiting or diarrhea itching, panting or many other signs. If the cyanobacteria exposure is severe, it can be lethal and cause liver failure in animals. So you must act quickly. When I started seeing all of these stories about our sea animals dying by the 100,000's and now our beloved pets my immediate reaction was if it’s effecting the animals you wonder what effect it has on kids, people? I know the answer....
