☔🐾 Rainy season reminder!

Those puddles might look fun to splash in, but they can hide something dangerous - Leptospirosis.

💧 This bacterial infection spreads through contaminated water and can affect both pets and people.

To keep your furry friends safe:
🚫 Don’t let them drink or play in puddles
💉 Ask your vet about the Leptospirosis vaccine
🧼 Keep outdoor water bowls clean and fresh

Stay safe and healthy this rainy season! 🌧️🐶🐱

🍂🐾 Autumn is here - but not everything that falls is safe for our furry friends!

Some seasonal plants and foliage can be toxic to pets if touched or ingested. Keep an eye out for these fall hazards:

🍄 Wild mushrooms – can be deadly if eaten.
🌰 Acorns – may cause dangerous GI blockages.
🍁 Leaf piles – can hide mold, sharp twigs, or toxic tree debris.
🌸 Lilies – highly toxic especially to cats and can cause kidney failure.
🌿 Yews – can trigger irregular heartbeat or worse.
🌼 Autumn crocus – may cause vomiting, diarrhea, and even organ failure.

Keep your pets safe this season by staying aware of what’s growing (and falling!) around your yard and walks. 🧡
