Onions Are Toxic to Your Pets
千万不要给宠物吃洋葱
You may already know that chocolate can be lethal to yourpet, but did you know that onions can be toxic to your cats and dogs too?
也许你已经知道巧克力对宠物的杀伤力，但是你知道小猫小狗吃了洋葱会中毒吗?
And I'm not just talking about their breath.
我不仅仅说的是他们的呼吸。
You see all forms of onions-cooked, raw, dehydrated-contain sulfur compounds.
要知道，新鲜的、脱水的、烹饪的洋葱，无一例外含有硫化物。
When your pet ingests onions, these compounds are broken down into what are known as disulphide compounds;
宠物摄食洋葱，化合物就分解成二硫化物，红细胞膜“中毒”，形成海恩茨氏小体的突起小泡。
These bubbles make the red blood cell more rigid, and weaken its outer membrane,
海恩茨氏小体使红细胞僵硬，外膜受损。
which means not only that the cell can't flex and twist as it circulates in the body, but that it is more likely to rupture.
红细胞在体内循环，无法弯曲和扭转，更易破裂。
Now, the main function of red blood cells is to circulate oxygen throughout the body.
红细胞的主要功能是循环体内的氧气。
