☀️ HEAT STROKE CAN HAPPEN IN MINUTES ☀️

Louisiana summers can be dangerous for pets.

Some pets are at especially high risk:
🐾 Bulldogs
🐾 French Bulldogs
🐾 Pugs
🐾 Boston Terriers
🐾 Boxers
🐾 Shih Tzus
🐾 Persian Cats
🐾 Himalayan Cats
🐾 Senior pets
🐾 Overweight pets
🐾 Pets with heart or respiratory disease

⚠️ Watch for:
• Excessive panting
• Bright red gums
• Thick or excessive drooling
• Weakness or collapse
• Vomiting or diarrhea
• Disorientation or stumbling
• Difficulty breathing

Remember:
🚗 Never leave a pet in a vehicle
🔥 Pavement can burn paws
💧 High humidity makes it harder for pets to cool themselves
🌞 Limit outdoor activity during the hottest parts of the day

If you suspect heat stroke:
✔ Move your pet to a cool area
✔ Offer small amounts of water
✔ Wet paws, belly, and body with cool (not ice-cold) water
✔ Seek veterinary care immediately

A few minutes of prevention can save a life.

We have had an influx of neonate bottle babies over the last couple of weeks. We will be holding another bottle feeding class at the shelter this Saturday for anyone interested.

Look at these two little boys we got to treat today! Cute as a button or two. We do need name suggestions though… we were told they’re very mischievous even at six weeks. Sounds like double trouble to us.
