Halloween Pet Safety

The big day is right around the corner and we're really excited about Halloween this year at About.com. While people almost universally love Halloween, most of our pets don't. My cats go into hiding when the doorbell rings, with the except of my Jaspurr, who will scurry right up to the door, seeking escape outside. That's the last thing we want, especially on this night. Please, if you love your cats, and I know all my readers do, keep them indoors this weekend. Let's see what's going on here and elsewhere at About.com:
