✨Hanukkah Pet Safety Tips✨
Hanukkah is a time that is spent with the ones you love and that includes your pets! Keep your dogs and cats safe this season with these tips:
🕎The menorah is one of the most important Hanukkah traditions. However, keeping flame-lit candles in the house can be dangerous for both humans and our pets – especially when some pets like to jump on tables. We suggest considering battery-operated candles or that you place the menorah in pet-free rooms and at an unreachable height.
🕎Traditional Hanukkah foods such as latkes are delicious but they could be toxic to your pets. Keep cats and dogs away from these treats, keep all human food and leftovers out of paw’s reach, and cover trash bins securely.
🕎Hanukkah wouldn’t be the same without the spinning of the dreidel. However, like any small object, they can become a pet safety hazard. Watch where the dreidel goes after the game is over and keep it out of your pet’s mouth to avoid a choking hazard or foreign body obstruction.
Speaking of foreign body obstructions – gifts with ribbon and gift wrap may seem like toys to your pets. Keep a bag or a secure trash can nearby to dispose of all the trash immediately.
Consider these extra steps so that your furry friends can join in on the fun safely!

Did you know that just like humans, your pet can also undergo radiation to treat cancer? 🐾🐶🐱 Radiotherapy is used for many different cancers and is commonly used when a tumor is removed and there is still some residual disease remaining. CASE’s cutting-edge technology allows for the delivery of advanced radiation with extreme precision - resulting in less side effects. Radiotherapy is useful in achieving a cure, preserving quality of life, and providing comfort ❤️
🚨🐾 Is your pet trying to brave a dental emergency with a smile? They could be keeping their pain hidden while acting normally. Watch out for these signs!
- Bleeding from the mouth or nose
- Pawing at the face
- Drooling
- Altered head position
- Visible lacerations
- Swelling around the mouth or eyes
- Facial asymmetry
- Inability to open or close the mouth
- Refusal to eat
If you notice any of these symptoms, it could be a sign of one of several dental emergencies. Don't delay, it's time for an urgent vet visit! 🚑🐶🐱

Rolling in with style 🐾 Meet our fighter, Buttercup! This 10-year-old French Bulldog won't let anything stop her, not even being paraplegic.

Happy National Apheresis Day!!!
CASE provides cutting-edge apheresis therapies for patients with immune-mediated diseases, severe toxicities, and even some types of cancer. Immune-mediated hemolytic anemia (IMHA), is one of the most common diseases treated with plasmapheresis.
During these procedures, plasma containing antibodies that are attacking the red blood cells is removed and replaced with fresh donor plasma. This therapy is used in dogs and cats with the more severe immune-mediated conditions and greatly improves their prognosis in the acute phase of the disease.
