Happy June, everyone.
We are approaching July 4th quickly. Many of our 4-legged friends are sensitive to the loud celebratory noises.
Some tips and tricks for these kiddos are below:
- You can use pheromones to aid in relaxation in a room/crate or in the car while travelling: Feliway for cats and ThunderEase for dogs. Both come as spray or as a diffuser that you can plug in.
- Place them in a room that is far away from the fireworks. Make sure they are comfortable with the room/crate and have access to water.
- For dogs, we have thunder shirts available: these are like a tight hug and help some dogs with the stress of loud noises.
If you know your furry friend will need prescription medication to be calm, please call the clinic as soon as possible. If we have not seen you and your pet in the last 12 months, we will need to schedule an appointment prior to prescribing medications, and we are booking out 3-4 weeks.
Also, we will be closed July 4th in celebration of Independence Day. If you need a refill on any medications to make it through the holiday weekend, please call for refills now so we have enough time to fill your pet’s prescription.
