We are seeing a large number of cats being infected with Panleukopenia - This is the cat version of Parvo. It is a highly contagious virus and can remain in the environment for a long time. If your cat is not current on the DRC (FVRCP) vaccine or has never been vaccinated we strongly recommend getting them in and vaccinated as soon as you can. They do not have to be an outside cat to contract this, you can carry it inside.

Unfortunately, this virus is often deadly despite supportive care and treatment. Please see the link below for more information.

Feline panleukopenia is a highly contagious, potentially fatal disease in cats. Fortunately, there are highly effective vaccines available to help protect against it.

Ticks are small, but the problems they cause can be serious. As weather warms and pets spend more time outside, it helps to know where ticks hide and how to check for them.
�
Ticks often wait on tall grass, brush and leaf piles along the edges of yards, parks and trails. After outdoor time, a slow, thorough check can help you spot them early.
�
We can also recommend year-round parasite prevention that fits your pet and your local area so you do not have to guess.
