Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays 🎄🎁⭐️

12/23/2024

The holiday season 🎄 is also the time of year that we start bring plants into our homes. They get cold too!😉 But we always have to think about our 4 legged family members. We all know how much cats and dogs love to be involved with plants. The most common POISONOUS plants we see are Poinsettias and Amaryllis.

Here are two links that go into more details about what holiday plants to stay away from

Wh**ey is happily playing outside and not worried about fleas and ticks because he is on bravecto that protects him for 3 months

10/18/2024

The answer is both of them are at risk!

Oakley is at risk because he lives in an apartment building with carpets, so fleas can come in under the door. Fleas can also live in the carpet for 3 months. That's not even counting the eggs and other life stages of fleas! BUT Oakley is safe because he is on Bravecto which kills fleas and ticks for 3 months.

10/18/2024

Lets talk about fleas. Who is at risk?
1) Oakley who lives in apartment cat that is strictly indoors?
2) Wh**ey who lives in a house and plays outside?

The answer will revealed in next post 🙃

How Can I Prevent Dental Disease in My Pet?
The key to management of gum disease (for humans or pets!) is prevention.
As long as the surfaces of the teeth are cleaned frequently, the gums will stay healthy. Excellent oral health is maintained by daily oral hygiene. The gold standard is brushing. Daily chewing activities can also be effective in maintaining oral health. Daily use of products that have been awarded the Veterinary Oral Health Council (VOCH) Seal will help to keep your pet’s teeth clean and the gum tissues and bone around the roots healthy.
VOHC recommends periodic veterinary examination of the mouth and teeth of your dog or cat. Many pets, particularly middle-aged and older cats and dogs, require periodic professional scaling in addition to on-going plaque control.
Regular use of products awarded the VOHC seal of acceptance will reduce the severity of periodontal disease in pets
