🐩 Meet our new buddy we got to take care of yesterday and of course, Queen Mavis, one of our office cats, holding down her cat tree throne. 👑

Both of them have an important reminder for you:
Annual exams aren’t just check-ups — they’re how we keep pets healthy, up-to-date on vaccinations, and protected year-round.

If it’s been over a year since your pet’s last exam, now’s the time to get on the schedule!

Call us today to book your appointment at (318) 512-4194!

Because healthy pets = more snuggles, smiles, and cat tree naps. 🐾

🔥 𝐇𝐨𝐭 𝐏𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 = 𝐁𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐏𝐚𝐰𝐬 🔥

It doesn’t have to feel that hot outside for your pet’s paws to get injured. Pavement, concrete, and other surfaces heat up fast — and they hold that heat.

𝐃𝐢𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰?
🐾 Paw burns can happen in just 60 seconds on surfaces at 125°F or hotter.
🐾 On a sunny 85°F day, asphalt can reach 135°F — hot enough to fry an egg… and your dog’s paws.

𝐒𝐮𝐫𝐟𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐓𝐞𝐦𝐩𝐬 on an 85°F Day:
𝐀𝐬𝐩𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐭: about 135°F
𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐭𝐞: about 125°F
𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐬𝐬: about 105°F
𝐒𝐡𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐬𝐬: about 95°F

**𝐐𝐮𝐢𝐜𝐤 𝐭𝐞𝐬𝐭: Place the back of your hand on the ground for 7 seconds. If it’s too hot for your hand, it’s too hot for paws.

𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐩𝐞𝐭:
Walk early mornings or late evenings
Use shaded routes and grassy areas
Consider protective booties for hot days

Let’s keep those paws healthy and burn-free this summer! 🐶🐾

𝐈𝐬 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐏𝐞𝐭 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐝? 🐾

Fleas, ticks, and heartworms pose real threats to your pet’s health. The good news? With proper prevention, they’re easy to avoid — and much cheaper to prevent than to treat.

💉 𝐕𝐚𝐜𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬 help shield your pet from dangerous (and sometimes deadly) illnesses.
🦟 𝐅𝐥𝐞𝐚, 𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐤, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐦 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 keeps your pet safe from parasites that can lead to major health complications.
🩺 𝐑𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐰𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐞𝐱𝐚𝐦𝐬 allow us to catch issues early, before they become expensive or harder to treat.

At 𝐕𝐞𝐭𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐞, we believe every pet deserves top-notch protection without top-dollar prices. We make it easy (and affordable!) to keep your furry family safe all year long.

📞 Call us at (𝟑𝟏𝟖) 𝟓𝟏𝟐-𝟒𝟏𝟗𝟒 to schedule an appointment!

THIS FRIDAY is dental day!! Call today to schedule a teeth cleaning!

🦷 Dental Day is Coming! 🐾

VetCare’s next 𝐃𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐃𝐚𝐲 𝐢𝐬 𝐓𝐡𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐝𝐚𝐲, 𝐉𝐮𝐥𝐲 𝟏𝟏𝐭𝐡!

Dental cleanings aren’t just about fresh breath (though we love that too!) — they help prevent painful gum disease, tooth loss, and even heart and kidney problems caused by oral bacteria.

If your pet’s breath could clear a room or you’ve noticed tartar buildup, it’s time.
