Never a boring day in veterinary medicine! This chicken had a swollen sinus under her eye. It was an abscess and, unlike other animals, pus in chickens becomes a solid rock that has to be surgically removed.

Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) is a potentially deadly viral infection in cats. FIP occurs most commonly in young cats but can affect older cats, too. Symptoms of FIP often come on very quickly and can affect multiple organ systems.

FIP arises from the mutated form of the feline coronavirus. Feline coronavirus is extremely common and highly contagious amongst cats. Most cats with feline coronavirus rarely become sick and those that do show only mild signs like diarrhea. In some infected cats, however, the coronavirus mutates into the FIP virus.

FIP generally comes in two forms, wet and dry. The wet form is the most common; cats with this form of FIP will develop fluid in areas of the body where it shouldn't be (in the lungs, in the belly, around the heart, etc). Cats will the dry form will develop masses throughout their bodies which will damage their internal organs. Cats with FIP are lethargic, lose weight, don't to eat or drink, may become blind, have a fever and may develop seizures or other neurologic issues. Diagnosing FIP is difficult as there is not one specific test that can confirm FIP.

A diagnosis of FIP used to be a death sentence for cats but, with the recent availability of new drugs, FIP can now be very effectively treated! Here are two of our recent FIP survivors who have done very well through treatment.

Do you think that your dog (or cat) has to have really bad tartar build up before they have dental issues? Think again!

This dog came in for a dental with only mild tartar but look at how red her gums are. Gingivitis is an early sign of dental disease. Taking care of your pet’s dental health at this stage means we can protect the health of his/her teeth and we won’t have to extract teeth.

February is National Pet Dental Health Month. We are offering 10% off our dentals this month. Call us at 979-217-6555 to get your pet scheduled for his/her dental consult today!

February is Pet Dental Health Month!

Dental health is a very important part of your pet’s overall health, and dental problems can cause, or be caused by, other health problems.

Dental problems can look like more than just bad breath:
*Broken or loose teeth
*Extra teeth or retained baby teeth
*Teeth that are discolored or covered in tartar
*Abnormal chewing, drooling, or dropping food from the mouth
*Reduced appetite or refusal to eat
*Pain in or around the mouth
*Bleeding from the mouth
*Swelling in the areas surrounding the mouth

Your pet’s teeth and gums should be checked at least once a year by your veterinarian for early signs of problems and to keep your pet’s mouth healthy.

We are offering 10% off our dentals for the entire month of February. Call us at 979-865-3664 to get your pet's consult and dental scheduled.
