Different breeds of cats mature at slightly different rates. Depending on your kitten's breed, it might take them somewhat longer to mature. Maine Coons, for example, aren't considered mature until about 3 or 4 years old. Some cats never even really outgrow their kitten phase! Looking for more fun facts about your cat? Follow us for more.

Oftentimes, we see our cute cats twirling, but what does it mean? It can signify several things. They could be being playful, following a hunting instinct, showing excitement, or, in rare cases, it could indicate a medical issue or be caused by disorientation. However, in most cases, this is normal behavior. Always remember to monitor your cat's behavior to ensure they're in tip-top shape and not in distress. If unsure, we're here to help - call 604-579-0986.
At just 8 weeks old, kittens reach a significant milestone, making weaning them to solid foods the most opportune time. It fosters their independence while setting the foundation for a healthy, balanced diet that ensures their growth into playful and thriving cats!

Like this if you can relate. Taking care of living creatures is no easy task! Contact us at 604-579-0986 with any questions you have regarding your pup's health.
Have you ever noticed that your pup twitches while they’re sleeping? That’s because dogs dream as well with comparable sleep patterns to humans. Not just that but they also have a “sixth sense.” Your pooch can sense things before they happen and show that by acting out with hiding, weird behavior, and whining. Dogs are truly one of a kind. Stay pawsome! Give us a call at 604-579-0986 to schedule a visit.
Have you seen your cat playing and twisting as if they really have 9 lives? Cats are actually known for their agility and flexibility! They have flexible spines that allow them to twist and turn in mid-air, and their skeletons contain more bones than humans. Contact us today at 604-579-0986 to schedule a wellness appointment for your pet!
Did you know that cats have a highly developed sense of hearing? They can detect a wide range of sound frequencies. They can hear sounds that are both higher and lower in frequency than compared to humans! Crazy, right? Contact us for more information about how to care for your cat. Call us at 604-579-0986.
Unlike dogs, cats are digitigrade, meaning they walk on their toes! This contributes to their graceful and silent movements. It also allows them to move faster! Contact us today at 604-579-0986 for more cat care information and to schedule an exam for your kitty!
Puppy socialization is one of the essential ingredients for a happy, well-behaved, and confident dog. Missing out on socialization during puppyhood can contribute to behavior issues like leash reactivity and fear-based aggression. A week after your puppy has had their first round of vaccines, it's a good time to start doing puppy-safe socialization activities. You should never bring your puppy to a dog park or other area where groups of dogs frequently gather until your pup has received all of their vaccinations in their initial puppy series (around 17 weeks old). Is it time to get your pet vaccinated? Schedule a vaccination appointment with us today at 604-579-0986.
As a pet parent, we hope you never have to go through an emergency. However, if you do, make sure you have this list handy so you know when to bring your pet in case of an emergency.
