8 Ways Flameless Candles Make Your Home Safer for Curious Pets

Glowlabo Flameless Candles are quickly becoming a must-have for pet owners everywhere. Loved for their realistic glow and worry-free design, these candles have earned a loyal following from those who refuse to risk open flames around their furry friends.
 
With thousands of pet parents making the switch, many say they’ll “never go back to real candles” again.

So what makes them the safer choice?

1. No Open Flames = No Fire Danger 

I used to worry non-stop about leaving a candle lit, especially with my cat darting across the furniture or swiping at anything that moved. One misplaced paw or an unexpected leap can send a candle crashing onto the carpet. If you rely on open flames, you could be putting your home and pet at risk.

Did you know that candle fires cause over $250 million in damage each year? Many reported cases are caused by pets knocking over open flames.

2. No Hot Wax Spills or Burns 

My curious cat once knocked over a candle, and watching hot wax spill onto her fur broke my heart. Melted wax can reach 180°F and cling to fur, making burns far worse. Many pets instinctively lick their wounds, which can lead to ingesting artificial dyes or chemicals. If you keep using regular candles, you run the risk of injuries and costly vet visits.

3. No Smoke or Strong Scents That Can Harm Pets

Ever get a headache after burning a scented candle? That’s because many contain benzene and formaldehyde, both associated with respiratory issues. Cats, birds, and small dogs have delicate lungs that absorb toxins even faster than humans. Inhaling these chemicals daily can affect their respiratory health.

I love candles, but my budgie's health comes first. These flameless ones look so real, and I don't have to think twice about turning them on. Wish I'd gotten them sooner!

4. No More Dangerous Candle Wicks

My brother's golden retriever has eaten some weird things—socks, paper, even a piece of a remote. But I never thought about candle wicks being a danger until I learned some contain metal cores. Swallowed wicks can cause choking or block their intestines, which may require costly veterinary intervention. The last thing any pet owner wants is a medical emergency over something so small.

5. No Hidden Toxins in Soot and Wax

I used to think candles were harmless until I learned how much soot they release into the air. That black residue around the jar? It is similar to pollution found in car exhaust. Pets spend their time close to the floor, which means they breathe in more of those toxins than we do. If you have ever seen dark stains near your candles, it may be harmful to their lungs over time.

88.1% of people were unaware that candle soot can harm their pet’s health over time.

6. No More Knocked-Over Candles

If you have a pet, you know nothing stays in place. My friend's dog once sent a candle flying just by wagging his tail too close to the table. Wax splattered everywhere, and we spent hours trying to clean it off the carpet. Pets do not understand what is dangerous, and a flickering flame is just another thing for them to explore.

We love our Glowlabo flameless candles! My golden retriever is naturally curious about everything, but at least now I never have to worry about him getting close to a real flame!

7. No More Risky Spots at Home

People say just keep candles out of reach, but have they ever met a cat? If they see a space, they will climb, even if it means squeezing onto a tiny shelf next to a burning candle. One curious sniff or swish of their tail could leave them with burnt whiskers or paws. No spot is truly safe when you live with a tiny four-legged explorer.

8. No More Worrying About Blowing Out Candles

That "Did I forget to blow it out?" panic is the worst. I once turned my car around just to check, and the stress was not worth it. If a pet gets too close to an open flame while you are gone, the outcome could be tragic.

 

With Glowlabo's flameless candles, you will never have to second-guess yourself again, knowing your home and pets are always safe.
