With the warmer weather, it's prime tick season. Protect your four-legged friend from Lyme disease, by:

➡️Regular Tick Checks: Perform thorough tick checks on your pet after outdoor activities, especially in areas with tall grass or wooded areas. Look for ticks on their fur, particularly in and around the ears, under the legs, and between the toes. If you find a tick, please call your veterinarian for advice.

➡️ Tick Preventive Medications: Consult your veterinarian about tick preventive medications suitable for your pet. These medications can provide a shield against ticks and may include topical treatments, collars, or oral medications.

➡️ Maintain Tick-Safe Environments: Keep your yard well-maintained and clear of tick-friendly habitats by regularly mowing the grass and removing leaf litter.

From protecting their paws on icy walks to keeping them warm indoors, a little extra care can make a big difference in your pets well-being during the colder months. Whether you're a dog lover, a cat enthusiast, or both, these winter safety tips will help you and your pets enjoy the season worry-free! 🐕🐈✨

🔥 Watch for Hypothermia & Frostbite: If your pets show signs of shivering, lethargy, or reluctance to go outside, it could be too cold for them. Frostbite can affect areas like ears, paws, and tails, so always bring your pets inside if it’s too chilly.
🐱 Indoor Enrichment for Cats: Winter means more indoor time for cats. Provide stimulating toys, climbing structures, or cozy hideaways to keep them active and entertained.
🥶 Keep Them Warm at Night: Make sure your pets have a warm, dry place to sleep away from drafts. Heated beds or soft blankets can help them stay cozy during cold nights.
🧼 Rinse Off After Outdoor Play: After your dog (or adventurous cat) has been outside playing in the snow or slush, rinse off the salt and chemicals that could irritate their skin or paws.
🥣 Hydration: Even in the winter, it’s important to make sure your pets have access to fresh water. Indoor heating can dehydrate them, so keep their water bowls full and refreshing!
