🐾 It’s Hairball Awareness Day! 🐱💨 At Parkview Animal Wellness, we understand that hairballs are a common concern for our feline friends. While they might be a normal part of life for some cats, frequent hairballs can indicate underlying issues. Let’s look closer at what causes hairballs and how to help your kitty stay comfortable! 🐾✨

Why Do Cats Get Hairballs?
• Grooming: Cats groom themselves regularly, and as they lick their fur, they inevitably ingest hair. In most cases, the hair passes through the digestive system without issue. However, some hair may accumulate and form a hairball.
• Long-Haired Breeds: Cats with long fur (like Persians or Maine C***s) are more likely to develop hairballs because they have more hair to groom.
• Health Issues: Excessive grooming or hairball formation may be linked to allergies, skin conditions, or other medical concerns.

How to Reduce Hairballs:
1. Regular Grooming: Brush your cat regularly to remove excess fur, reducing the amount they ingest.
2. Diet: Special high-fiber diets or hairball-specific cat foods can help move hair through their digestive system.
3. Hydration: Ensure your cat drinks enough water to keep their digestive system running smoothly.
4. Laxatives or Hairball Pastes: Products are available to help your cat pass hairballs more easily—ask us about the right options!

If your cat struggles with frequent hairballs or excessive grooming, don’t hesitate to reach out to Parkview Animal Wellness for a check-up! We’re here to help keep your kitty happy and healthy. 🐱💙

Heartworm disease is a serious condition that can affect dogs and cats, but the good news is that it’s preventable! At Parkview Animal Wellness, we offer several options to keep your furry friends safe:

1. 💊 Oral Medications: Monthly chewable tablets that provide reliable protection from heartworms. They're easy to administer, making them a great choice for pets that prefer pills.
2. 🔗 Injectable Protection: A 12-month injection that ensures you don’t have to worry about monthly dosages. Perfect for maintaining consistent protection without the monthly reminder.
3. 🐾 Combination Products: Some treatments offer comprehensive protection against heartworms, fleas, ticks, and other parasites, simplifying your pet care routine.

Why Heartworm Prevention is Crucial:

Heartworms, transmitted through mosquito bites, can inhabit your pet’s heart and lungs, leading to severe health issues over time, including:
• Coughing, fatigue, and difficulty in breathing
• Potential heart failure in severe cases
• Permanent organ damage if left untreated

How We Can Help:
Let us assist you in choosing the perfect heartworm prevention plan tailored to your pet’s lifestyle, whether they're homebodies or adventurous spirits.

📞 Schedule a Visit: Call us today at 256-574-2155 to schedule a heartworm test or refill your pet’s prevention prescription. It’s never too early to safeguard your pet’s health!

Stay proactive with regular heartworm prevention—because your pet’s health is invaluable! 🌟

💖 April is National Heartworm Awareness Month! At Parkview Animal Wellness, we’re dedicated to keeping your pets healthy and protected, and that starts with understanding the importance of heartworm prevention. Heartworm disease is serious, but the good news is—it’s preventable! 🐾

What Are Heartworms?
Heartworms are parasitic worms in your pet’s heart, lungs, and blood vessels. They are transmitted through the bite of an infected mosquito, and unfortunately, dogs and cats are susceptible to heartworm disease. 🦠

Why is Prevention So Important?
💔 Heartworm disease can be fatal if left untreated. It causes severe damage to the heart, lungs, and other organs, leading to costly and complicated treatments. 💡 Prevention is simple and affordable! You can protect your pet from this dangerous disease year-round by giving them a monthly heartworm preventative.

Signs of Heartworm Disease:
• Persistent cough
• Fatigue or lethargy
• Difficulty breathing
• Weight loss

How We Can Help:
At Parkview Animal Wellness, we offer heartworm prevention options for dogs and cats and can check your pet’s heartworm status with a simple blood test. Our team is here to make sure your pet stays heartworm-free and healthy!

Call us at 256-574-2155 to schedule your pet’s heartworm screening or refill their prevention today! 💉

🔬 What is Heartworm Disease? Heartworms are parasites that live in your pet’s heart and lungs, causing damage to their organs. They’re transmitted through mosquito bites, and dogs and cats are at risk—though it’s more common in dogs.

💡 Why Prevention Matters Heartworm disease can cause severe damage to your pet’s heart, lungs, and other organs, leading to symptoms like coughing, lethargy, and even heart failure. The best way to protect your pet is through year-round prevention.

💊 How to Prevent Heartworms The key to prevention is administering a monthly heartworm preventative, which is safe, easy to give, and highly effective. We offer both oral and topical options for your convenience!

🐾 Signs Your Pet Might Have Heartworms If you notice your pet coughing, becoming quickly tired, or having difficulty breathing, it’s crucial to have them checked by a veterinarian immediately.
