As spring flowers start to approach, remember that lilies are incredibly toxis to cats.

It’s better to be safe than sorry, so check which type of lily you are purchasing before you bring any flowers or plants into your home. Lilies are beautiful plants which may brighten your home, but they are highly toxic to your cat. All

Lyla was wondering…have you been seeing ads on social media talking about miracle powders for clean teeth or shrinking lipomas? Unfortunately, these products are not effective and show deceptive before and after shots. Please don’t be influenced or waste your money on things you see on the internet.

Even indoor cats are at risk of contracting avian influenza, especially if they are on a raw diet.

We strongly discourage raw diets in cats while there is a continued increased risk of this very serious illness being spread through raw diets.

ALERT - The Washington State Department of Agriculture and Oregon Department of Agriculture are warning pet owners about the risks of raw pet food after indoor cats in Oregon became ill from HPAI. Officials found the cats all consumed the same brand of raw pet food before becoming ill.

Samples collected from open containers of the raw pet food confirmed the presence of HPAI. This public health notice was initiated in response to these findings. The raw pet food was manufactured by Wild Coast Raw.

Impacted food includes: Wild Coast Raw Boneless Free Range Chicken Formula; Lots #22660 and #22664; Best By Date 12/2025. MORE INFORMATION: https://bit.ly/41j1CL

As a clinic, we are working to stay on top of the latest news regarding spread of the avian influenza that is affecting cats.

We have NOT seen it in our area, nor have there been any reported cases at this time, but it is something that could easily spread, especially now that it is being found that some raw or freeze dried raw diets are causing cats to become ill.

Our biggest tips for prevention at this time are to discontinue raw diets in cats & to keep cats indoors.

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT!!!
If you have been in for an appointment recently, you likely noticed this sign hanging in our exam rooms.

As of December 31st, we will no longer have the ability to send or receive faxes. If you get medications or food from an outside location, you will need to get a written prescription from us.

We do have an online store that will ship directly to you that will not require that written prescription: https://pointbreezevetclinic.securevetsource.com/site/view/HomeDelivery.pml

If your pet is on compounded medication through Wedgewood, nothing will be changing.
