Fleas and ticks not only make our cats and dogs itchy and uncomfortable, they can also cause serious health conditions. The best defense for your pet is year-round prescription flea and tick prevention. Call us at 919-948-4210 to schedule an appointment to talk to a veterinarian about the right medication for your pet.
Why should you come see us for prescription flea and tick medication?
๐พ Many over-the-counter flea and tick medications provide poor protection and may also contain ingredients that are harmful to your pet.
๐พ Fleas cause skin irritation, allergic dermatitis, skin infections, tapeworms and bartonellosis (cat scratch disease).
๐พ Ticks transmit Lyme disease, ehrlichiosis, anaplasmosis, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, cytauxzoonosis and other infections.
๐พ Heavy infestations of fleas and ticks can cause life-threatening blood loss and anemia.
๐พ Prescription flea and tick preventatives come in several forms, from chewable pills to topical solutions, and we can help you choose the best one for your pet.

Happy Fri-YAY from two of our daycare pups, Finley and Harley!

Unlike dogs, cats are digitigrade, meaning they walk on their toes! This contributes to their graceful and silent movements. It also allows them to move faster! Contact us today at 919-948-4210 for more cat care information and to schedule an exam for your kitty!
Have you seen your cat playing and twisting as if they really have 9 lives? Cats are actually known for their agility and flexibility! They have flexible spines that allow them to twist and turn in mid-air, and their skeletons contain more bones than humans. Contact us today at 919-948-4210 to schedule a wellness appointment for your pet!
What are your cat's 'purrfurred' foods/treats? Let us know in the comments below!
This is a kind reminder to feel as awesome as this kitty today!
We love your cats as much as you do and want to keep them as healthy as possible! Contact us at 919-948-4210 to schedule an appointment.
Remember, any food that isn't a regular part of a pet's dietโespecially fatty foods like ham, gravy, dark turkey meat, and turkey skinโcan cause issues ranging from diarrhea to pancreatitis, and some human foods can even poison your pets. Side dishes like stuffing and mashed potatoes may contain garlic, onion, leeks, or chives that are toxic to dogs and cats. Desserts may include dangerous-to-pets ingredients like chocolate, raisins, currants, and Xylitol (a popular sugar substitute)โso reserve the sweet stuff for humans only. Plus, chewing and swallowing bones may cause a life-threatening obstruction that requires emergency surgery.
Taking care of your furry friends is our top priority! Bring your pets to our clinic for a check-up, call us at 919-948-4210.
Did you know that Siamese cat coloring actually comes from albinism? Their unique coloring is believed to be the result of a mutation from albino genes. They are sometimes referred to as โtemperature sensitive albinosโ due to their color developing after exposure to lower temperatures and being the darkest on their extremities. Most modern Siamese cats are not considered true albinos and the full mutation is recessive within the breed, which is characterized by an all-white coat with blue eyes.
