Reasons Why A Vaping Device Is Dangerous For Your Pet

Vaping devices are emerging as an option for traditional cigarettes. Most people are using it, including pet owners.

However, if you smoke a vaping device near your pet, you need to understand that it can be hazardous. So you might want to choose between being with your pet or vaping.

Here are some ways that a vaping device can be harmful:

• Battery-powered devices can get hot quickly.
• The liquid chemicals (nicotine or cannabinoids) inside the vaping cartridge can evaporate when the device is heated up. Your pet can then ingest the vapor.
• The materials used in the battery are lithium and alkaline dry cell that are also harmful to pets
• If your pet ingests a part of the battery, the gastrointestinal tract can suffer from chemical burns.
• If your pet ingests any part of the vaping device, it can be lodged in the gastrointestinal tract and harm the animal.

Any sign of illness exhibited by your pet should warrant an appointment with your animal hospital Greater Cincinnati. Read more here.
