Exposure to winter’s dry, cold air and chilly rain, sleet and snow can cause chapped paws and itchy, flaking skin, but these aren’t the only discomforts pets can suffer. To help prevent cold weather dangers from affecting your pet’s health, please heed this advice from our experts.

Happy Thanksgiving from all of us here at Shore Side Veterinary Care! As we gather for the holiday, we know it's tempting to slip a little something under the table to our furry friends. To keep your pets safe, here is a quick guide to pet-safe Thanksgiving treats:

✅ The "Yes" List (In Moderation):

-Turkey Meat: Plain, white meat is best. No skin, bones, or seasoning!
-Sweet Potato: Plain and mashed (hold the marshmallows and brown sugar).
-Pumpkin: 100% pure pumpkin puree (not pie filling).
-Green Beans & Carrots: Fresh or steamed without butter, oil or salt.

❌ The "No" List (Toxic or Dangerous):

-Turkey Bones: They can splinter and cause serious internal damage.
-Stuffing: Often contains onions and garlic, which are toxic to pets.
-Gravy & Turkey Skin: Too fatty! This can cause pancreatitis.
-Raisins & Grapes: Highly toxic!
-Desserts: Chocolate, xylitol (aka birch sugar), and nutmeg are all dangerous.

We hope you and your pets have a wonderful, safe, and treat-filled holiday! 🧡

With the 4th of july fast approaching, more pets go missing during this upcoming week than any other time during the year. Create a quiet room with comfy blankets, familiar toys, and maybe even some calming music. Close windows and curtains to muffle the noise and drown out the booms!
Let's make sure our furry family members have a happy and safe holiday weekend. ❤️🐾

If your pet is prone to anxiety or stress, it's important to discuss calming meds before the 4th of July. This will give your pet enough time to adjust to the medication and make sure that it's effective.

It's heating up this week! The temperature inside a car can skyrocket to dangerous levels in a matter of minutes. Pets can suffer from heatstroke, irreversible organ damage, or even worse in a very short amount of time. Cracking a window isn't enough – it does little to prevent the rapid temperature increase. Please do not leave your pets in a hot car!
Let's all do our part to keep our pets safe this summer!

With Easter just around the corner, beautiful lilies will be everywhere. But please be aware that ALL parts of the lily plant (leaves, petals, pollen, even the water in the vase) are extremely toxic to cats. Ingesting a small amount, or even licking the pollen off their fur, can cause severe kidney failure and health issues.

Keep your feline friends safe this Easter by:

🔹Avoiding lilies altogether in your home.
🔹Checking bouquets carefully before bringing them inside.
🔹Educating friends and family about the danger.

If you suspect your cat has come into contact with a lily, seek immediate veterinary care. Early intervention is crucial!
