Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) is an important disease of domestic cats. It occurs worldwide in cats of all ages, but the disease is most common in young cats less than two years of age.
FIP appears to be more common in cats that live in multi-cat households, shelters, or catteries. Cats that are stressed due to re-homing, have recently had surgery, or have concurrent infections (more than one infection at a time) may also be more susceptible to developing FIP. Genetic factors are also thought to contribute to the development of FIP. Male cats are affected more often than females. Purebred cats, including Abyssinian, Bengal, Birman, Himalayan, Ragdoll, and Devon Rex may be predisposed to developing FIP.

One of the most common and useful medical diagnostic procedures is radiography or X-rays. The term X-ray originates from 1895 when the German physicist Wilhelm Röntgen discovered the technique. Since he was unsure what exactly was producing the image on his plates, he titled his paper "On a New Kind of Rays" and the term “X-rays” was substituted for unknown rays.https://vcahospitals.com/know-your-pet =radiographs

No one wants to think about a member of their family getting cancer, but sadly this is an all too common occurrence. Lymphoma is a relatively common cancer accounting for 15-20% of new cancer diagnoses in dogs. Lymphoma attacks the lymph nodes and lymphatic system and may be localized to one region or spread throughout the entire body. Scheduling your annual and semi-annual wellness exams and lab screenings with your veterinarian are key to catching diseases early.

November is Adopt A Senior Pet Month! Have you considered adopting a senior pet?

Senior pets can come with many advantages! Most are already house trained and know basic commands. Senior pets are generally calmer and more easygoing. Plus, since they are already grown, it is easier to get a better sense of their personality and grooming needs right away.
