Think your indoor cat is automatically safe from pests and preventable diseases? 🛋️🐾

Think again!

It is one of the most common myths we hear at the clinic: "My cat never steps foot outside, so they don’t need flea prevention or vaccines."

While keeping your cat indoors keeps them safe from traffic and outdoor predators, it doesn’t make them completely invisible to hidden health risks.

Swipe through to find out how hitchhiking fleas and unexpected indoor critters (like bats or mice!) can easily put your favorite couch potato at risk. 🕷️🦇

The good news? Keeping them safe is incredibly easy, affordable, and stress-free.

🩺 Is your kitty fully protected and up-to-date? Let’s make sure!

Does a warm, dry nose mean my dog is sick? 🌡️🐶

The short answer is: Not necessarily!
It is one of the most common myths we hear in the clinic: "My dog’s nose is warm and dry, so they must have a fever!" In reality a dog's nose temperature and moisture levels fluctuate constantly throughout the day based on their environment and activity.

Why your dog's nose might be warm or dry:
• 💤 They were just sleeping: When dogs nap, they stop licking their noses, causing them to dry out temporarily.
• ☀️ Environmental factors: Spending time in the sun, lying near a heating vent, or being in a room with low humidity can dry out their snout.
• 🐾 Age: Some senior dogs naturally develop drier noses as they get older.

When SHOULD you be worried?
Instead of focusing solely on the nose, look at the big picture. Like our graphic mentions, you should give us a call if a dry nose is accompanied by any of these warning signs:
1️⃣ Unusual changes in behavior: Lethargy, sleeping significantly more than usual, or hiding.
2️⃣ Appetite shifts: Refusing food or water for more than 24 hours.
3️⃣ Physical signs: Nasal discharge that is thick, green, yellow, or bloody (healthy nasal moisture should be clear).
4️⃣ Skin changes: The nose skin becomes cracked, flaky, crusty, or begins to bleed.

The Golden Rule: The only 100% accurate way to know if your dog has a fever is by checking their internal body temperature with a thermometer.
If your pup is acting unusual, showing any of the signs above, or if you just feel like something is "off," please don't guess! Trust your gut and give our team at Bay Road Animal Hospital a call. We are always here to help keep those tails wagging! 🐾❤️
