Happy Gal’entines day 🫶🏽🐶🐱🌹

This Valentine’s Day❤️ put your health first and your pets’ too by keeping up-to-date with heartworm prevention.

Just one mosquito, just one bite, that's all it takes for your pet to develop the deadly disease.

Known to be notoriously difficult to treat, the damage to your pets heart and lungs can be permanent. Not only can recovery take months and be costly, it can take months or years for symptoms to appear.

Prevention is better than cure🙋‍♀️ Ensure your pet is protected year round. Learn more👉 rspcaqld.org.au/blog/pet-care/heartworm-and-prevention

RSPCA QLD use on our pets, and recommend, products like Elanco's Advocate for dogs and cats. You can shop the range with RSPCA World for Pets 👉 bit.ly/3HN0inK
