We were delighted to host the East Richland Christian School 4 year old preschool class for a career day field trip on their last day of school!

The kids rotated stations in our hospital and viewed radiographs, listened to a kitten's heartbeat, made clay pawprints, bandaged a stuffed animal's leg, and practiced donning surgical caps, masks, and gowns.

We believe there is possibly one or more future veterinarians in this class! πŸ˜‰

πŸ”Ί ️April is Pet First Aid Awareness Month! πŸ”ΊοΈ

If your cat or dog suddenly develops signs of an ALLERGIC REACTION such as hives, swollen lips or eyelids, or redness of the skin or ear flaps, you can give Benadryl (diphenhydramine HCl) orally up to once every 8 hours until your pet can be seen by a veterinarian.

⚠️ *Note: An allergic reaction should be considered an emergency because the airway can become swollen causing difficulty breathing! Your veterinarian will likely give additional medications and may need to provide supportive care depending on severity.

See the following maximum doses of oral Benadryl 25mg tablets for small to large dogs.

14 - 20 lbs: 1 tab
21 - 27 lbs: 1 1/2 tabs
28 - 34 lbs: 2 tabs
35 - 41 lbs: 2 1/2 tabs
42 - 48 lbs: 3 tabs
49 - 54 lbs: 3 1/2 tabs
55 - 68 lbs: 4 tabs
69 - 82 lbs: 5 tabs
83 - 96 lbs: 6 tabs
97 - 109 lbs: 7 tabs
110 - 123 lbs: 8 tabs
124 - 137 lbs: 9 tabs
138 - 151 lbs: 10 tabs

See yesterday's post for doses for cats and toy breed/smaller dogs.

🐈 If you have cats don't bring the lilies home! 🐈

As Easter is approaching and spring is here please remember that Easter lilies and many other lilies are extremely toxic to cats. ☠️

A bite or two of the leaves or flowers, or even ingestion of the pollen can result in kidney injury and death. πŸ’”

If your cat becomes exposed to a lily you should seek emergency veterinary care. Early treatment can be life-saving. 🐾

God bless you all today! ✝️

🌑The normal temperature for cats and dogs is 101.5

If your pet is acting abnormal, you can buy a regular thermometer, apply a small amount of lubrication to the end, and take your pet's temperature rectally.

Just like in humans, body temperature can vary slightly. Temperatures around 102.3 should be considered a possible fever and any temperature over 102.5 while resting at home should be considered a fever.

* Not all illnesses cause a fever. Any time your pet has a change in behavior, energy level, or appetite you should call your veterinarian to schedule an exam! 🐾
