Happy National Take A Hike Day!
National Take a Hike Day is on November 17th, and it's a great opportunity to go hiking with your dog. To ensure a fun and safe outing, research dog-friendly trails, assess your dog's physical limits, and pack essentials like water, snacks, and a leash. Make sure to also follow trail rules, clean up after your dog, and practice training and recall skills beforehand. Share some photos with you and your hiking friend in the comments below.

November is National Pet Diabetes Month, a time to raise awareness among cat owners and veterinarians about the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of diabetes in cats. Diabetes interferes with insulin production and metabolism, preventing food from being converted into energy. This results in excess sugar in the bloodstream, leading to a range of health issues, from lethargy to chronic infections.
To help ensure your cat lives a long and healthy life, we’re outlining the risk factors, early warning signs, and treatment options for feline diabetes.

Risk Factors for Diabetes:
Feline diabetes affects approximately 1 in 230 cats. Several factors can increase your cat’s risk:
-Age: Cats over 6 years are at higher risk.
-Weight: Obesity significantly raises the risk of diabetes in cats.
-Physical inactivity: Cats that have little physical activity are at a higher risk.
-Gender: Male cats are more likely to develop feline diabetes than females.
-Long-term Medications: Certain medications, particularly corticosteroids, can increase diabetes risk.

Signs of Diabetes
The American Veterinary Medical Association has identified several early warning signs of diabetes. If you notice any of these behaviors in your pet, please contact us:
-Excessive thirst
-Increased urination
-Unexplained weight loss
-Increased appetite

Fancy Rat and Mouse Day gives us the opportunity to celebrate these beautiful creatures. Not to be confused with wild (black) rats, the Fancy Rat is the domesticated brown rat; while the Fancy Mouse is the domesticated form of the house mouse.
Both can be very smart and affectionate and make ideal pets, particularly for children (especially since there is much less looking after than with a dog, cat or rabbit!). But don’t let that make you think the members of the Fancy Rat And Mouse Association take their Fancy Rats and Mice less seriously than they would take any other pets!

Today is a solemn day of reflection and remembrance for those
who have served and sacrificed in military conflicts. The significance of Remembrance Day extends beyond just human soldiers; service dogs have also played crucial roles in military and peacekeeping missions. These dogs have provided companionship, detected explosives, and even saved lives, embodying courage and loyalty alongside their human counterparts

Its national canine Lymphoma awareness day.
Canine Lymphoma is a relatively common cancer that dogs can get. It is a cancer of the lymph nodes and lymphatic system. This cancer may be localized to one region or spread throughout the entire body. The lymphatic system includes the lymph nodes, specialized lymphatic organs, such as the spleen and tonsils, and the lymphatic vessels. Together, these components of the lymphatic system carry out several essential roles in the body, including the movement of fluids and other substances through the body, as well as carrying out immune functions in response to toxins or infections.

November is National Senior Pet Month!
It is time to celebrating senior cats and dogs. Senior pets can offer so much love, loyalty and companionship to pet owners, but it can be tricky knowing the right way to care for your senior pet as they age and adapting to your dog or cat’s new health needs. As our pets continue to live longer and more research is gathered around pets and aging, the more important it is to make sure we’re giving our senior dogs and cats the best care for their needs. Show us photos of your senior pet in the comments below. If you are seeing this on our instagram, come and join the fun on our page.
