Golden Hearts, Golden Years 💛 October - November is Senior Pet Season
Meet the Senior Pets of the Coulee Vet Family!💚💙

Midna is a 10-year-old kitty who was adopted by Haley from the Lethbridge Shelter. When she was first adopted, she looked like a short-haired cat, but with some love and a high-quality diet, her beautiful long coat made an appearance! Midna has occasional upper respiratory flare-ups and previously dislocated her sternum, but after a few months of limited activity and lots of love, she made a full recovery. 💖

Midna is fed Hill’s t/d dental food and has routine professional dental cleanings and assessments, which have helped keep her teeth in great shape—she hasn’t needed a single extraction! Her favourite thing is cardboard scratchers, and she’s enjoying her senior years one good scratch at a time. 😸

🐾 Senior Season is halfway through! 💛

Our golden oldies deserve a little extra love! 🐶🐱 As pets get older, changes in their health can happen so gradually that they’re easy to miss. Plus, our four-legged friends can be pretty good at hiding when something doesn’t feel quite right!

That’s why we’re focusing on senior pet care at Coulee Vet from October 1 – November 30! 🧡

✨ Have a senior pet at home? Give us a call to chat about their health and ways to keep them feeling their best!

Because growing older should mean getting more cuddles, not missing out on care! 🥰🐾

🎃👻 Halloween Safety: Keep It Spooky, Not Scary! 🐾🧡

Halloween can be full of fun for us, but a little frightful for our furry family members! Here are a few tips to keep your cats and dogs safe this spooky season:

🍫 Keep the candy out of paw’s reach! Chocolate, sugar-free treats containing xylitol, and other Halloween goodies can be toxic to pets. Keep candy bowls and trick-or-treat bags well out of reach!

🏡 Create a calm, cozy space. Doorbells, excited trick-or-treaters, and spooky costumes can be overwhelming for anxious pets. Set up a quiet room with their favourite bed, toys, and fresh water where they can relax away from the chaos.

🚪 Watch those escape artists! With the door opening all evening, even the best-behaved pets might make a run for it. Keep cats safely indoors and dogs secured away from the front door.

📍 Make sure they're identifiable! Check that your pet's microchip information is up to date and their ID tags are on. If they do slip out, proper identification can help bring them home safely.

🎭 Costume comfort matters! If your pet is dressing up, make sure their costume fits properly, doesn't restrict movement or breathing, and has no small pieces they could chew or swallow. If they're not loving it, skip the costume!

🕯️ Beware of spooky hazards! Keep candles, decorations, glow sticks, and electrical cords out of reach of curious paws and noses.

A little preparation goes a long way in keeping Halloween happy, safe, and stress-free for everyone! 🐶🐱

From our Coulee Vet family to yours, have a safe and spook-tacular Halloween! 🧡🎃
