Avoiding animal bites - Naveed Yaseen - 03-13-2009 08:08 AM Even the most friendly of cats and dogs can inadvertently bite you or a loved one, which could lead to an infection. The American Academy of Family Physicians offers these suggestions to help prevent animal bites: * Small children should never be left unattended with any animal. * If you see animals fighting, avoid trying to separate them. * Don’t approach or touch animals that appear sick, or any animals with which you’re not familiar. * Never touch or bother an animal that is eating. * Always keep your pets on a leash when away from home. * Choose your family pets wisely, and make sure to keep their vaccinations current. http://www.thenews.com.pk/daily_detail.asp?id=166914 |
