We love our pets! They’re part of the family. But our pets are unaware of the dangers posed by plugs, wires and other electrical devices in our homes. When in doubt, look at your electrical setup through the eyes of your furry friends to keep them safe.

- Never place electrical items near bathtubs or sinks. Curious cats may be tempted to knock items off the counter.
