May Is #MCSAwareness Month, www.deviantart.com/can-cat/jour... ,
-MCS, Allergies, Asthma, and Sensitivities last a lifetime, not just a month.
-Being #FragranceFree can make a world of difference to those around us.
-Remember, we #ShareTheAir.

Shop elsewhere! And tell them why!
Fragranced products should be in separately vented spaces away from food & other products & materials.
In a store like that, everything gets fragrance contaminated!
Fragrances emit many hazardous VOCs, & chemicals that harm everyone, not just the #HumanCanaries.
"The City of Portland has long recognized how fragrances and scents can impact people. And we acted, becoming the first US city to voluntarily ban fragrance"

Image of a canary wearing a gas mask and Santa hat, perched on a branch inside a wreath that has all kinds of fragranced & other products that emit hazardous air pollutants (rubber duck, plastic toys, fragranced or otherwise toxic laundry products, personal care products, candles, pesticides)... "seriously 'sensitive' to pollution" is written in pale text over the canary's belly.
Holidays are not easy for human canaries these days.
But friends CAN make it better:
