“Woof (hello)! My name is Kirby!!
Did you know radon can impact dogs, cats, and other pets just like it can impact the humans? Aren't humans the best? My Mom and Dad recently tested our home for radon. I like to spend hours cuddled on the couch next to Mom and Dad in the basement while they watch the big motion box that makes funny noises. They made sure that this basement room, and all of our rooms, are safe by testing with a radon test kit from the Lung Association.
Mom says some people worry it will be crazy-expensive to fix their houses if radon is high but don't worry! Mit-i-gation is easy-peasy!! Just hire the nice mit-i-gation peoples to help! (My favourite ones are the ones who bring treats for me!)
Radon is tasteless and odourless—even my expert nose can't detect it! So make sure you get a test today and make sure all animals (including the humans) in your home are safe. ”
