February is Pet Dental Awareness Month 🦷🐶🐱🐰
when we remember that our furry friends don't carry a toothbrush around with them and so their teeth may need a little attention.

🦷 Does your pet have tartar, swollen gums or bad breath...? If so they are not alone!
🦷 It is thought that 80% of pets over 3 years of age have some form of dental disease.
🦷 Dental disease can be a cause of pain and should not be ignored.
🦷 If required teeth cleaning can be performed under anaestheic using our ultrasonic descaler.
🦷 As rabbits' teeth grow throughout their lives they should also have regular dental check ups.
🦷 If you suspect your pet has dental disease book an appointment to discuss the treatment options with us.

😻 Play is great enrichment for cats, so we’re bringing back these lovely illustrations by Lili Chin from our 2022 International Cat Day campaign!

There are many different ways cats can play, so take note of what your cat likes to do. 🪶 A wand toy is a good place to start – try wiggling it in short bursts along the floor or swooping it slowly through the air above them.

🔔 Give yourself a reminder to play with your cat for 5 minutes each day and you will also see how much it improves your bond with them.

Check out more ways to enrich your cat’s life at home and make your home more cat friendly 👉 https://icatcare.org/advice/making-your-home-cat-friendly/
