"Lynx" (we might have made that up 😉) was found out and about in the snow this morning. She a juvenile female and has a lovely personality. No collar or microchip to help us get her home for the holidays. If she is yours, please reach out to the clinic.

Let it snow! Paisley Vet’s staff and families had a great time at tonight’s Paisley Christmas Parade! Our Gingerbread cookie bake off couldn’t have happened without our enthusiastic painters and their custom painted trees adorning the float wonderfully provided by R.F. King Excavation and Hummingbird Farms for baking the delicious cookies we handed out. I hope you got to try one! Are you Team Chocolate Chip or Team Gingerbread?
Huge shout out the the parade organizers and volunteers. It was a great night!

November is senior pet month.

I asked our vets what they wish you knew about your older pets.

Dr. Jenny (pictured with senior kitty Itty Bitty) says, "senior pets often need special diets to meet changes in their digestion or organ function. Most commercially available foods are formulated to meet the needs of growing puppies or kittens, even when the label says for all life stages.

Senior diets will take into account the common health concerns of our senior pets: higher fiber to prevent constipation, lower levels of some minerals, extra omega fatty acids to promote healthy coat and joints. Other diets are specific for certain disorders. For example kidney diets are reduced in protein, phosphorous, and sodium. Mobility diets are higher in glucosamine, chondroitin, and omega fatty acids. There are even new diets designed to help pets battling cancer to maintain their body condition."

Chat with your vet; we can help you find a diet that works best for your senior pet!

November is senior pet month.

I asked our vets what they wish you knew about your older pets.

Dr. Stephanie (pictured with senior girl Addi) says “Dental disease is a very common yet often silent condition that causes significant pain in senior pets. The discomfort can be comparable to a constant migraine or headache. Pets rarely stop eating due to dental pain, so we cannot rely on this as a clear sign of pain or infection. Many clients report significant improvements in their pets' energy, personality, and playfulness after we address their dental health. Taking care of your pet's dental hygiene is one of the most important steps you can take to enhance their quality of life and extend their well-being.

Come see your vet to learn more.

November is senior pet month.

I asked our vets what they wish you knew about your older pets.

Dr. Dana says “our pets won't typically vocalize due to arthritis pain, as so many people believe. Instead, watch out for signs like trouble getting on/off furniture, in/out of the car, up/down stairs, and slower walking than usual.”

While older pets may experience mobility issues, there’s a lot you can do to help your buddies feel their best in their senior years.

Come see your vet to learn more.

November is senior pet month and today's update is brought to you by Callie the Clinic Cat, who has diabetes.

Though diabetes is more common in older pets, diabetes can also occur in younger or pregnant pets.

Signs of pet diabetes include excessive water drinking and increased urination.

If you believe your pet may have diabetes, or have any questions about your pet’s health, come see your vet!

P.s if you can fit behind a computer, it’s a lovely place to sleep.
