While you’re enjoying the holiday, please remember to keep your pets safe and comfortable. Here are a few tips to help your furry friends have a stress-free 4th of July:

🐾 Keep pets indoors – Fireworks can be frightening. Make sure your pets are inside and in a quiet, secure space.

🐾 Update ID tags & microchips – Loud noises can cause pets to run. Ensure their identification is current, just in case.

🐾 Avoid party food – Many festive foods can be harmful to pets. Stick to pet-safe treats.

🐾 Never leave pets unattended near fireworks or grills – Flames, heat, and loud sounds pose serious risks.

🐾 June is Adopt A Cat Month! 🐾

Here at The Gentle Vet, we’re celebrating all month long—starting with a very special member of our team: Indy! 🐱💙

Indy came to us a little over a year ago as a rescue, and it didn’t take long for him to steal our hearts (and claim every chair in the building 😻). He reminds us every day just how much love an adoptable cat has to give.

If you’ve been thinking about adding a furry friend to your family, now is the purr-fect time! 🏠❤️ June is dedicated to helping cats in shelters find the loving homes they deserve.

Stop by and say hi to Indy next time you’re in—and consider visiting your local shelter to meet your future feline best friend. 🐾

🐾 Why Annual Vet Visits Are a Must for Your Pet! 🐾

Just like us, our furry friends need regular checkups to stay healthy and happy. 🩺✨

Here’s why yearly veterinary appointments are so important:

✅ Early Detection: Pets are great at hiding discomfort. Annual exams help catch health issues before they become serious.
✅ Vaccines & Preventatives: Stay up-to-date on essential vaccines and protection from fleas, ticks, and heartworms.
✅ Dental Health: That bad breath could be more than just "dog breath" — regular checkups include a look at those pearly whites! 🦷
✅ Weight & Nutrition Checks: We'll track your pet’s weight and help with nutrition to keep them in tip-top shape.
✅ Peace of Mind: Knowing your pet is healthy is one less thing to worry about.

📅 If it’s been a year (or longer), it’s time to schedule that visit!
Call us at 973-335-6500

💙 Because your best friend deserves the best care — every year.
