It's officially winter. And while we don't necessarily love it, we do love the idea of cuddling up by the fire with a four-legged furball. Break out the (dog) sweaters and holiday feels - winter is here!

Caring for our pets means paying close attention to their non-verbal cues. Pain in pets can often go unnoticed, but recognizing the signs is key to their well-being 🐾. Changes in behavior may indicate discomfort or health issues. Here are six common signs that your furry friend might be in pain:

1️⃣ Avoiding stairs: Hesitation or refusal to go up or down stairs can signal joint pain or weakness 🚶‍♂️🐕.
2️⃣ Reluctance to jump: If your pet avoids jumping onto their favorite spots, it could be due to hip or back pain 🛋️🚫.
3️⃣ Difficulty standing: Struggling to get up after lying down may indicate stiffness or conditions like arthritis 🤕.
4️⃣ Decreased appetite: Eating less can be a subtle sign of discomfort or other health concerns 🍽️😿.
5️⃣ Excessive grooming: Over-grooming, particularly in one area, might be your pet’s way of coping with pain 🐾👅.
6️⃣ Reduced activity: A lack of interest in play or movement may suggest your pet isn’t feeling their best 🐶💤.

By staying alert to these signs, you can ensure your pet gets the care they need promptly. It's all about safeguarding their quality of life and showing them the love they deserve ❤️🐾.

Meet Chad! He's been hanging at the clinic for the past month while recovering from an enucleation (eye removal) after having a nasty infection in his eyes and a severe upper respiratory infection. He was saved by Whimsical Whiskers Rescue from a group of 40 cats in a colony being fed on someone's porch. He LOVES to be around people; group porch life was not his idea of a good time.

He is in need of a forever home for the holidays! He is around 8 months old, litter trained, vaccinated, and neutered. He loves totalk, play with anything that moves (especially rolling plastic balls with bells in them), and explore. He isn't shy about dogs and is very curious when seeing and hearing cats. You would never know he has one eye by watching him dart around and chase toys!

If you are interested in adopting him, please comment below or call the clinic.

GI parasites 🦠🧫: Unwelcome guests in their gut can cause diarrhea.

Colitis 💩🚫: Inflammation of the colon can result in loose stools.

Food intolerance 🚫🍗: Some pets might struggle with certain ingredients.

Allergies 🤧🚫: Allergens in their diet can trigger digestive problems.

Bacterial infections 🦠💊: Nasty bacteria can wreak havoc on their digestive system.

Inflammatory bowel disease 🤕🦠: A chronic condition that may cause recurrent diarrhea.

Pancreatic disease 🅿️🦠: Issues with the pancreas can disrupt digestion.

Antibiotic/other medications 💊🤒: Some meds might upset their stomachs.

Stress/emotional upset 😔😿: Anxiety can affect their digestive health.
