As we kick off Memorial Day weekend, we wanted to share some pet safety tips to remember! Please share this post to spread awareness.

-Keep alcohol and table scraps away from your pet​
-Never leave your pet unsupervised around bodies of water
-Keep your pet hydrated​
-Limit time in the sun and heat ​
-Keep your pet away from fireworks​
-Make sure your pet has an ID tag or is microchipped​

05/23/2024

Did you know that less than 10% of the pets that are unchipped will return home each year?

A microchip is a secure, reliable, permanent identification for your pet and the process is simple and affordable. Microchipping your pet can help ensure that if your pet goes missing, they can be identified and find their way back to you.

If your pet is chipped, make sure their information is up to date. To help keep pets close to their loved ones, share this post and remind your friends to !

Is your pet scooting or licking their rear? It could be their a**l glands.

A**l glands are located on the rear of dogs and cats. The glands produce an oily, fishy-smelling fluid that helps with scent marking. Sometimes these glands can get impacted or infected.

Soft, consistent stool, as well as allergies, are common causes of irritation. If your pet is scooting, licking excessively, or showing signs of discomfort around their rear end, contact us! We will help to identify the cause and determine the best course of treatment.

Mia is a big fan of The Tortured Cats Department after her bath! 😂 jk.. kind of. She was a little bit of a Bolter.

You’re local Due West swifties offer cat baths with deshedding treatments for cats that can do it with a broken heart. And once they’re feeling fresh and clean they’ll smell great for more than a Fortnight. Afterall, who’s afraid of little old baths? We can fix it (the smell that is) no really we can. 🫶

With tomorrow being Hairball Awareness Day, we wanted to remind our cat parents about the importance of preventing hairballs.

Accumulated from excessive grooming, hairballs can build in your cat’s digestive system and either get coughed up or in some cases, need surgical removal.
If your cat is excessively vomiting, lethargic, loses their appetite, or has diarrhea or constipation, these may be signs of a blockage and you should contact our team immediately.

April is – and with instances on the rise – we are sharing what you need to know as a pet owner!

Heartworms are life-threatening parasites, transmitted by mosquitoes, that can live in your pet’s system and can lead to heart failure, liver damage, or worse. Heartworm disease is 100% preventable. Annual testing and year-round prevention can provide a lifetime of protection.

If your pet is due for their annual heartworm test or needs a refill on prevention, contact us today! For more info on heartworms, click here: https://bit.ly/3Tpuo7L
