The Temperature is Rising…
and your car may be a DEATH TRAP...
 You
know not to leave your pet in your car on a hot, summer day, but did you
know that a warm, spring day can also kill your pet?
Even with the windows cracked on a 70° F
day, while it may feel comfortable outside, the inside of your car can heat
up to over 100° F in minutes!
The build-up of
heat inside your car can kill your pet. Your dog or cat can die of heat
prostration within a very short time. Even if your pet survives the hot car,
he or she could easily suffer unseen brain damage.
Dogs and cats
don't sweat the same way people sweat. An animal's lungs are its main
cooling system. When your pet has only overheated air to breath, he or she
can't live very long.
Remember,
shaded parking areas, open windows, and air conditioned cars with the motors
off won't cut it. If you love your pet, leave it home. Don't take a chance
with your pet's life.
