🥦 Tip of the Day: Nutrition plays a vital role in managing diabetes in pets. For cats, a high-protein, low-carb diet can be particularly beneficial. Consult with us to discuss dietary options that suit your pet’s needs. A proper diet not only supports blood sugar control but also helps maintain energy and prevent further health complications. Let’s give them the best chance at a happy, healthy life! 🐾🥗

11/25/2024

Just a reminder, we will be closed on Thursday, November 28th and Friday, November 29th for the Thanksgiving holiday! Please call the clinic Monday-Wednesday this week to get any medications or appointments you may need before then!

📈 Stat of the Day: For our feline friends, diabetes can be a significant challenge. Studies show that 80-90% of diabetic cats require insulin injections to help manage the condition. [Source: Cornell University College of Veterinary Medicine] But with the right care plan, managing diabetes becomes a manageable routine that can extend your pet’s quality of life. 🐱💉

11/21/2024

🕵️ Did You Know? Some breeds are more prone to diabetes than others. Breeds like Dachshunds, Miniature Schnauzers, and Burmese cats have a higher risk for diabetes. Knowing your pet’s breed-specific health risks can help you stay proactive in their care. If your pet falls into a higher-risk category, consider annual check-ups and regular monitoring to catch any issues early. 🩺🐕 🐈

11/20/2024

👀 Look Out For These Signs: Increased thirst, frequent urination, unexpected weight loss, and general tiredness can all be early indicators of diabetes in pets. It’s easy to dismiss some of these as aging or normal behavior, but if you notice any of these signs, especially together, it’s a good idea to schedule a check-up with us. Early intervention can mean a much happier and healthier life for your pet! 🐶🐱
