Summer cookouts are fun for the whole family, but be aware of a hidden danger on your table: the corncob. While corn itself is safe, the cob can cause serious problems for pets, as it cannot be broken down in the stomach and often leads to intestinal blockages that require surgery.

To keep your pets safe, ensure they are kept away from human foods and that all foods and trash are out of their reach.

If you suspect your pet has ingested something they shouldn't, call our office to speak with a staff member who can help determine if your pet needs to be seen by a veterinarian.

Keeping your hamster or gerbil happy and healthy involves more than just a comfy cage and nutritious food. Enrichment activities are key to their well-being! Here are some tips to keep your small pets engaged and stimulated:

-Variety of Toys: Offer a mix of chew toys, tunnels, and climbing structures to keep them entertained.
-Exercise Wheels: Ensure they have access to a solid surface wheel to run on. Avoid wire wheels to prevent injury.
-Hide and Seek: Create hiding spots using small boxes or tunnels to satisfy their natural burrowing instincts.
-Interactive Feeding: Use treat balls or scatter their food around the enclosure to encourage foraging behaviors.
-Sand Baths: Provide a small container of sand for them to roll in and keep their fur clean.
Safe Chews: Offer wooden chews or mineral blocks to help keep their teeth in check.
-Regularly rotate toys and accessories to keep things fresh and interesting. Your furry friends will thank you with their happy, active behavior! šŸ¾ā¤ļø

Its Feline Leukemia Day. Let’s learn more about this serious and often misunderstood disease affecting our beloved cats. FeLV is a contagious virus that weakens a cat's immune system, making them more susceptible to infections and other illnesses.

What You Need to Know:

Transmission: FeLV spreads through close contact between cats, including grooming, sharing food or water bowls, and bite wounds.

Symptoms: Common signs include lethargy, weight loss, fever, swollen lymph nodes, and recurring infections. Some cats may not show symptoms immediately but can still spread the virus.

Prevention:
Vaccination: Ensure your cat is vaccinated against FeLV, especially if they go outdoors or live in multi-cat households.

Testing: Regularly test your cat for FeLV, particularly if they are exposed to other cats.

Together, we can make a difference in the lives of our feline companions. Let’s work towards a future where every cat can live a happy, healthy life free from Feline Leukemia.
