🐾 WWL-TV is reporting what we've been seeing in our exam rooms—fleas are especially bad this year in the New Orleans area.
If your pet is scratching, biting at their skin, or you're seeing fleas in your home, don't wait. Fleas can cause skin infections, allergic reactions, tapeworms, and even anemia in severe cases.
The good news is that effective flea prevention is available. If you're having trouble getting fleas under control, give us a call. We're happy to help you find the best solution for your pet(s). We have numerous options available.

☀️ Summer is here, and so are the shave-downs! 🐱

We’ve been helping lots of our feline friends stay cool and comfortable with shave-downs. Whether your cat has matting, a long coat, or just needs some relief from the heat, a summer trim can make a big difference!

For your cat’s safety and comfort, light sedation is often recommended during the process.
