🐰 Did you know rabbits need vaccines too?

Two dangerous viruses threaten our bunny friends:

- RHDV2 (Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease Virus) is a highly contagious virus that can be fatal within days of infection. This virus is actively spreading across the US and can survive in the environment for months, making protection crucial.

- Myxomatosis, transmitted by mosquitoes and fleas, causes severe swelling and illness in rabbits. Without vaccination, this disease is often fatal, and there's no effective treatment once infected.

Don't wait until these viruses reach our area. Schedule your rabbit's vaccination appointment today: https://cascobayvet.com/contact/

Our team can answer all your questions about keeping your bunny protected!

🔥 Pet Parent’s Guide to Hotspots

Hotspots are painful, inflamed areas on your pet's skin that can quickly worsen if left untreated. They’re typically caused by irritation, moisture, or allergies, which lead to constant scratching, licking, or biting of the affected area.

Here’s what you need to know to keep your pet comfortable and help prevent hotspots:
- Identify Early Signs: Look for red, inflamed patches on your pet's skin that may ooze or crust over. These areas are often very itchy and painful, causing pets to scratch or lick them frequently.

- Understand Common Causes: Hotspots can be triggered by various factors, including flea bites, allergies (food or environmental), poor grooming, or underlying skin conditions. Seasonal allergies are especially common causes, as pets may react to pollen, grass, or other outdoor allergens.

- Keep the Area Clean and Dry: Moisture worsens hotspots, so it's essential to keep the affected area dry. Avoid using harsh soaps, as these can further irritate the skin.

- Address the Underlying Cause: To prevent hotspots from recurring, consult us to identify any allergies, infections, or other factors that may be triggering them.

By identifying them early and treating the cause, you can help your furry friend heal faster and stay comfortable. For more advice on managing hotspots, reach out to us!

Why Is My Dog Licking Their Paws? 🐾

A little paw licking is normal, but if your dog can’t stop, it might be a sign of a deeper issue like allergies, infections, or even anxiety. Excessive licking can lead to painful hot spots or infections if left untreated.

If you’re noticing redness, irritation, or constant licking, it’s time to schedule a check-up to find out what’s causing your pup’s discomfort and keep those paws healthy! 🐶💙
