Kittens should stay with their mom until at least 8 weeks old, with 12 weeks being ideal whenever possible. Those early weeks are critical for social development, immune support, and learning important behaviors. Giving kittens enough time with mom helps set them up for a healthier, happier future. Questions about kitten care or adoption timing? Call (613) 678-3678.

Plaque and tartar begin building up on a dog’s teeth early in life, often starting below the gumline where it’s hard to see. Without proper care, this can lead to gum inflammation, painful infections, loose or lost teeth, and even impact organs like the heart, liver, and kidneys. Since many dogs continue to eat despite discomfort, dental disease can go unnoticed without regular exams. Routine dental care helps protect your dog’s comfort and overall health.
Call (613) 678-3678 to learn more about your dog’s dental health or schedule an exam.

Dental disease is very common in cats, including indoor-only cats. Being indoors doesn’t protect cats from plaque buildup, gum inflammation, or painful conditions like gingivitis and tooth resorption. Left untreated, dental disease can lead to infection, tooth loss, and ongoing discomfort. Routine dental exams help identify problems early and keep your cat comfortable and healthy.
📞 Call (613) 678-3678 to learn more about feline dental care or schedule an exam.

Dogs’ ear canals trap moisture, wax, and debris, which can create the perfect environment for yeast or bacteria to grow. Early signs include head shaking, scratching at the ears, redness, odor, discharge, or sensitivity when you touch the ear. Left untreated, ear infections can become very painful and may lead to chronic inflammation, skin damage, or even problems deeper in the ear.

Dogs can vomit occasionally from eating too fast, dietary changes, motion sickness, or getting into something they shouldn’t. But repeated vomiting (more than once), vomiting that lasts over several hours, or vomiting paired with lethargy, not eating, diarrhea, bloating, abdominal pain, or dehydration can signal something more serious like pancreatitis, an infection, toxin exposure, or even an intestinal blockage. Puppies, seniors, and small dogs can also become dehydrated quickly.
📞 If your dog is vomiting repeatedly or seems unwell, call (613) 678-3678 so we can help you decide the next step.

Even a small amount of extra weight can make it harder for a cat’s body to regulate blood sugar and can put added stress on the hips, knees, and spine. Over time, overweight cats may become less active, have trouble jumping, groom less, or seem stiff, creating a cycle where they move less and gain more. The good news? Portion control, measured meals, and daily play sessions (like wand toys, lasers, or food puzzles) can make a big difference in your cat’s health and comfort.

That same history also explains their soft mouth (gentle carrying), strong drive to please, and often a love of swimming. Remember, just because they’re active and social dogs, they thrive with regular exercise, enrichment, and routine wellness care. Such a fun fact!

Because cats are great at masking pain, arthritis often shows up as subtle behavior changes rather than obvious limping. You may notice your cat jumping less (or hesitating before jumping), avoiding stairs, sleeping more, grooming less, hiding more often, or seeming “grumpy” when touched around the hips, back, or legs. Some cats may also start having litter box accidents if climbing into the box becomes uncomfortable. The good news is that arthritis can often be managed with the right plan, helping your cat stay active and comfortable.
📞 If you’re noticing any of these changes, call (613) 678-3678 to schedule an evaluation.
