🧐 Does your pet ever stay with a doggy daycare or pet sitter? Do you ever worry about the "what if" scenarios - do you have a plan in place if your pet were to need veterinary care while you were away?

💪 We're here to help! Download our free pet sitting templates below to ensure you've covered all your bases and have a plan in place. We hope you never need to worry about your pet needing care while you are away, but it's something we experience often on the medical side. Some things you can do to help include:

🐾 Ensure your pet had a wellness exam within the last 12 months for an active VCPR, a veterinary-client-patient-relationship; This 12 month timeline is required by the state of Florida for us to prescribe medications.

🐾 Designate an emergency contact and authorize them to make decisions for your pet's care if you cannot be reached.

🐾 Familiarize your pet sitter with our location, contact & hours - if we have an active VCPR with your family & pet, we can often bridge any gaps for your pet sitter!

🐾 Locate and map out the nearest ER so your pet sitter knows who to use for after-hours emergencies - call us if you need recommendations.

🐾 If your pet has a medical history, make sure you review it in detail with your pet sitter & communicate a plan for any flare-ups.

Don't hesitate to call us with any questions or concerns, or if we can help you come up with a custom care plan for your pet!

Who has kitten fever right now?! Look at these cuties from one of the best local rescues around!

😻AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION! PLEASE SHARE!😻

Helga and Johanna are extremely bonded, they would be heartbroken without each other. Their pictures say it all! We hope they can stay together so much that we are offering a BOGO deal to help them find the perfect family.

Meet the spirited Helga, a fiercely independent feline with a personality as vibrant as her whiskers! She may not be a lap cat, but don't let that fool you - she's got a heart full of playfulness and a unique charm that's impossible to resist. This sassy little diva knows what she wants and is ready to take the world by storm. Her favorite pastime involves perching on cat trees, surveying her surroundings with a regal air. She's not very interested in a family with dogs but she'll allow children so long as they're trained for cats.

Embrace the enchanting Johanna, a kitten with a magical spirit and a heart as sweet as a lullaby. This elegant feline is a master of the art of play, with a penchant for graceful leaps and charming antics that will turn every day into a delightful adventure. Johanna's enchanting presence is complemented by her love for leisure, as she gracefully indulges in the art of napping - turning your home into a haven of tranquility. When it comes to excitement, Johanna's heart skips a beat for one thing - food!

Palm Beach Purrs cats and kittens have been fully dewormed, spayed/neutered, microchipped (which comes with free lifetime registration), FIV/FELV tested negative, and have received age-appropriate vaccines. Adoption fee is $150 or if you choose to adopt siblings a discount will apply. Two kitten siblings is $250.

🩺 Veterinarians play an important part in world health through the prevention of zoonotic disease - disease that can be spread from animal to human.

🩺 As pet owners, you can play an active role in preventing zoonotic disease in your own pets through routine prevention and wellness visits!

🩺 A few examples of zoonotic disease we aim to prevent at PGA Animal Clinic include: Hookworms, Leptospirosis & Rabies.

🌎🐾🌍🐈🌏🐕🌎🐾🌍

💩 Hookworms - Common in puppies and pets not current on prevention, the larvae passed in f***s can infect people when contacted through unprotected skin! We recommend getting a f***l screening test on your pet at least once a year, plus always keeping them up to date on prevention like NexGard Plus!

💧 Leptospirosis - Caused by a bacteria spread through the urine of infected animals, particularly our FL wildlife like raccoons, rats, etc. Humans can then become infected from their own dog's urine. Our pets can become infected from water sources, even in more suburban areas like the standing water at the end of a driveway. While there are many strains of Lepto worldwide, a simple once yearly vaccine can help protect your dog from this potentially deadly disease. We recommend discussing with our medical team to see if your dog has increased risk factors and should be vaccinated against Lepto.

💉 Rabies - A preventable, but fatal viral disease that is spread through the saliva of an infected animal. Rabies is a core vaccine for both cats and dogs, and due to the major world health implications we take Rabies vaccine recommendations very seriously! Most adult cats/dogs are candidates for a 3 year Rabies vaccine (only have to vaccinate once every 3 years), which ensures they are still fully protected while also getting the benefit of minimal vaccine visits to the vet! If you are unsure if your pet is up to date on rabies, please give us a call today at 561-626-5020!

TGIF: Thank Goodness it's Frenchies!

We love a good Frenchie puppy visit from our amazing client & breeder Blue Sky French Bulldogs 🥰

04/03/2024

For those who knew Doc you likely knew Marge, our clinic dog for many years. Marge played her role well, whether snoring away in reception or "working hard" for cookies, she was the best little bulldog who always brightened our days.

Marge crossed over the rainbow bridge on Monday, surrounded by her beloved family and her "coworkers" at PGA Animal Clinic. Please join us in celebrating all the special memories that we shared with Marge over the years. We would love for you to share photos or any memories you have with Marge too, so please post below! ❤
