🎗️💙 PET CANCER AWARENESS MONTH 💙🎗️
This month, we're raising awareness of cancer in our beloved pets and the importance of recognising the signs early 🐾
Just like humans, our pets can develop cancer, and knowing what to look out for can make a real difference
🔎 Signs to look out for include:
🐾 New lumps or bumps, or changes to existing ones
🐾 Unexplained weight loss
🐾 Changes in appetite or drinking habits
🐾 Wounds that won't heal
🐾 Unusual swelling or persistent lameness
🐾 Changes in behaviour or energy levels
❤️ Prevention starts with awareness! You know your pet better than anyone, so if you notice something unusual or are concerned about a change in their health, please don't hesitate to get in touch with us
🩺 Have you heard about our Health Check 360?
We offer a Health Check 360 for our mature patients:
🐶 Dogs aged over 5 years
🐱 Cats aged over 7 years
This includes blood testing, which can help us investigate your pet's health and screen for certain cancers in breeds that may be predisposed to them. Early investigation can help identify potential concerns and allow us to discuss the next steps with you
While no screening test can detect every cancer, regular health checks are an important part of looking after your pet as they get older. 💙
