snowglobes and antifreeze - WARNING

So I just learned that some snowglobes contain antifreeze which is extremely toxic to cats and dogs. So if one breaks and if they lick even a small amount it can lead to acute kidney failure. Unfortunately, I don't think these decorations come with ingredients so which ones have ethylene glycol in them is unknown.

Please keep them well away from your pets.

I had no idea, and I've always loved snowglobes!
