🍂 Fall Wildlife Safety for Pets
As the leaves start to fall, our local wildlife gets busy — and our pets get curious. Here’s how to keep your furry family safe during peak autumn activity in Wayne County.

🦨 Skunks are on the move.
Even mellow dogs can get surprised at dusk. Keep evening walks leashed and stick to well‑lit areas.
De‑skunking tip: Skip the water at first — it can lock in the oils. Use a mix of 1 quart 3% hydrogen peroxide + ¼ cup baking soda + 1–2 teaspoons dish soap, apply carefully (avoid eyes), rinse, and repeat once if needed. Then call us if your pet has eye irritation or breathing changes.

🦔 Porcupines wander earlier in the evening.
Quills = a veterinary visit every time. Never try to pull them out at home; they’re barbed and can break under the skin.

🦝 Raccoons and foxes forage more aggressively.
Secure trash, keep pets supervised outdoors, and avoid letting dogs investigate brush piles or wood stacks.

🦌 Deer rut season begins.
Bucks can be unpredictable. Keep dogs close on hikes and avoid letting them chase wildlife — it’s dangerous for both animals.

🌾 Hidden hazards in leaf piles.
They can conceal ticks, sharp sticks, and even small critters. Fun is fine — just check your pet afterward.

🐾 If your pet has a wildlife encounter:

• Keep distance and stay calm
• Don’t touch wounds or quills
• Call Highland Veterinary Clinic for guidance
• Watch for signs of stress, limping, or unusual behavior

❤️ Fall is beautiful — let’s keep it safe for every tail and whisker.

🍂 September feels cooler… but parasite season isn’t over yet.
Fleas, ticks, and mosquitoes stay active well into early fall here in NEPA. Warm afternoons and damp evenings create the perfect conditions for them to hang around, and missing even one monthly dose can leave your pet exposed.

Whether your best friend is joining you for leaf‑covered hikes, playing in the yard, or lounging on the porch, September is a stay‑consistent month for protection.

🐱 Take Your Cat to the Vet Day — August 22
Cats are masters of pretending everything is fine… even when it isn’t. That’s why regular veterinary checkups are one of the most important gifts you can give your feline friend. Early detection of dental disease, kidney issues, thyroid changes, arthritis, and weight‑related concerns can add years of comfort and health to their lives.

🌿 Help Your Cat Feel Calm Before the Visit

A little preparation goes a long way — especially for our sensitive, routine‑loving kitties.

• Carrier Acclimation — Leave the carrier out well before the appointment. Add a soft blanket, treats, and even meals inside so it becomes a safe, familiar space rather than a “surprise box.”
• Pheromone Support — Products like Bonqat can help reduce anxiety. Spray bedding or use a diffuser 20–30 minutes before loading your cat.
• Calming Medications — If your cat becomes extremely stressed during travel, Dr. Dein can prescribe gentle, short‑acting medications to help them stay relaxed and safe on the way in.
• Practice Rides — Short, quiet drives can help desensitize nervous cats before the big day.

🩺 Why Annual Exams Matter

Even indoor cats need yearly screenings.

A calm cat + a thorough exam = a healthier, happier life.
