June is National Pet Preparedness Month, and with summer storm season arriving in Georgia, now is the perfect time to make sure your family is ready for unexpected emergencies. ⛈️🐕

If you had to evacuate your home quickly, do you have an emergency kit ready for your pet?
Here are the top 5 veterinary essentials to pack in a pet "Go-Bag":

1️⃣ A 3-to-7-day supply of their regular food and bottled water.
2️⃣ A backup supply of any vital daily medications (keep an eye on expiration dates!).
3️⃣ A physical copy of their vaccination records and medical history.
4️⃣ A recent photo of you with your pet in case you are separated.
5️⃣ A secure collar with readable ID tags, plus a backup leash.

Pop quiz for our followers: Is your pet’s microchip registered with your current phone number and address?

Let us know if you need help looking up their chip info! 📱🏡

As we wrap up the month of May, our team at Fayetteville Animal Hospital wants to touch on a vital topic: Pet Cancer Awareness. 🩺❤️

Cancer is one of the leading health challenges for adult and senior pets, but the single most powerful tool we have against it is early detection.

During your pet’s routine checkups, we look for subtle changes that might easily be missed at home.

Between vet visits, keep a close eye out for these warning signs:
🔍 New or changing lumps and bumps under the skin
🔍 Sudden, unexplained weight loss or loss of appetite
🔍 Persistent lethargy, coughing, or difficulty breathing
🔍 Slow-healing sores or unusual odors

Catching health changes early gives us the absolute best chance at effective care.

If you've noticed any new bumps or unusual behaviors in your furry friend lately, don't wait!
give us a call to schedule a quick peace-of-mind check! 🐾

May is Lyme Disease Prevention Month, and with the warm weather fully here, ticks are out in full force.

Lyme disease is transmitted through tick bites and can cause joint pain, lameness, fever, and kidney issues in our pets.

Because ticks love tall grass and wooded areas, even a quick walk around the neighborhood can put your pet at risk.

The best defenses are proactive:
• Check your pet’s fur thoroughly after spending time outside (especially around the ears, toes, and underarms).
• Keep them on a strict, year-round flea and tick preventative.

Prevention is simple, effective, and keeps your pet happy all summer long.
Is your pet protected for the season?

Give us a call to refill their preventative meds!
