September is Animal Pain Awareness Month. Pain management is a high priority for veterinarians in caring for their feline patients. The signs of pain in cats can be subtle. They evolved to hide symptoms of illness or disease from predators. Watch for changes in your cat's activity level and behavior as these are the best indicators of pain.

How Veterinarians Alleviate Pain in Cats
* Treat the illness or injury that is causing pain
* Prescribe pain medications appropriate for cats
* Recommend weight management and/or a special diet
* Suggest changes to the home environment
* Acupuncture
* Laser therapy

Sweet Lily had to come visit us at EVCOT recently. Mom left her home for a bit and Lily was feeling a little anxious, so she helped herself to a snack in the pantry… (or two snacks? three? ok, five snacks) 🐾🍪🍠🍫🍝

This sweet pup is Charlie. She gave her owner quite the scare when she became very lethargic and weak at home. She came to EVCOT and was quickly hospitalized and diagnosed with Immune-mediated Thrombocytopenia (ITP) which is a condition where a dog’s immune system mistakenly attacks and destroys its own platelets, leading to a deficiency in clot-forming cells. In severe cases, ITP can cause bleeding problems, including hemorrhages, which is what was happening to Charlie. 2 blood transfusions, a plasma transfusion, and lots of love and care from our dedicated staff members later, she was able to go home. Wishing you a speedy recovery Charlie Girl 🐾

Hot dawg! *HEAT ADVISORY*

Today and tomorrow are reaching scorching temperatures of 95 and above in the Portland area and we want your furry friends to be safe!

It would be best to avoid all outdoor exercise for your pooch (cats too!) in the extreme heat and keep them indoors with air conditioning as much as possible. Short potty breaks only!

Excessive panting can be the first symptom of heat stroke in dogs. A dangerously overheated dog may collapse or have convulsions, exhibit vomiting or diarrhea, and have gums or a tongue that turn blue or bright red.
Other warning signs of heat stroke include glazed eyes, excessive drooling, a rapid heart rate, dizziness or lack of coordination, fever, lethargy, and loss of consciousness.

If your dog shows any of these symptoms, or even if you are slightly unsure, please contact your regular veterinar rian or local veterinary emergency hospital ASAP.

As always, do NOT leave your dog in a car for any amount of time in the heat, or even in mild warmer temperatures, and be careful of hot surfaces such as asphalt during walks that can easily burn your dog’s pads.

Please check Oregon.gov before letting your dog swim in or drink from lakes, rivers and streams for the most current Cyanobacteria (toxic blue-green algae) advisories in your area.

Stay safe and cool everyone!

Dr. Wisniewski’s beautiful daughter Brooklyn was very excited to show off the new EVCOT coloring book to her class! 🖍️

If you bring your little ones with you to our clinic, please feel free to grab one of our EVCOT activity/coloring books at the front desk. There are fun vet jokes, a maze, a couple of familiar faces 👀, a word search and lots of fun pictures to color while waiting.

We would love to be tagged in your very special “Draw Your Pet” portrait page after you finish your masterpiece! 🐾🎨
