November is National Senior Pet Month! Our senior pets hold a special place in our hearts, and they deserve a little extra attention as they grow older.

Just like people, pets experience changes as they age. They may slow down, sleep more, develop arthritis, or experience changes in their vision, hearing, and mobility. However, some changes we consider a normal part of aging may actually be signs of an underlying health condition.

Here are a few ways to help keep your senior pet happy and healthy:

Schedule regular veterinary wellness exams. Senior pets may benefit from exams every six months.
Keep them at a healthy weight to reduce stress on their joints.
Watch for changes in appetite, thirst, behavior, or bathroom habits.
Provide comfortable bedding and easy access to food, water, and resting areas.
Keep up with routine bloodwork to help identify health concerns early.
Pay attention to mobility changes, stiffness, or difficulty getting up and down.

Our senior pets have given us years of love and companionship. Let's make sure we're giving them the care they need to enjoy their golden years!

Winter is right around the corner, and now is a great time to make sure your cattle are ready for the colder months ahead!

As temperatures drop, there are a few important things to keep in mind when managing your herd:
🐄 Body Condition: Make sure cattle are in appropriate body condition heading into winter. Maintaining adequate condition is especially important for bred cows as their nutritional needs change throughout pregnancy.
🐄 Water Availability: Cattle need access to clean, unfrozen water every day. Snow alone is not always enough to meet their water requirements.
🐄 Wind Protection: Windbreaks and dry bedding can help cattle conserve energy and stay comfortable during cold weather.
🐄 Nutrition: Cold temperatures increase energy requirements. Work with your nutritionist or veterinarian to make sure your herd's nutritional needs are being met.
🐄 Health Checks: Keep an eye out for coughing, nasal discharge, decreased appetite, or animals that appear to be falling behind.

A little preparation now can go a long way in keeping your herd healthy and productive throughout the winter!

The days are getting shorter, and that means more evening walks in the dark! As we head into the colder months, it's important to make sure our four-legged friends are visible and safe.

Here are a few ways to keep your pets safe during walks after dark:

🐾 Use reflective collars, leashes, or harnesses so drivers can see your pet.
🐾 Consider a light-up collar or clip-on LED light for extra visibility.
🐾 Stick to sidewalks and well-lit areas whenever possible.
🐾 Keep your dog on a leash, even if they normally have great recall. Darker conditions can make it harder to see approaching hazards.
🐾 Wear bright or reflective clothing yourself!

A little extra visibility can go a long way in keeping you and your furry walking buddy safe. Stay warm and stay visible!

November is National Pet Diabetes Month! Did you know that dogs and cats can develop diabetes just like people?

Diabetes occurs when the body cannot properly regulate blood sugar (glucose), either because it doesn't produce enough insulin or cannot use insulin effectively.

Here are some common signs of diabetes to watch for in your pets:

Increased thirst and drinking more water than usual
Frequent urination
Increased appetite
Unexplained weight loss
Lethargy or decreased energy
Changes in vision, including cloudy eyes in dogs

Diabetes is a manageable condition, but early diagnosis is important! With proper veterinary care, monitoring, medication when needed, and dietary management, many diabetic pets can continue to live happy, comfortable lives.

If you notice changes in your pet's drinking habits, appetite, or weight, don't hesitate to schedule an appointment. Early detection can make a big difference!

Happy Halloween from all of us at Neighborhood Vet Care! 🐾

Halloween candy is for the trick-or-treaters, not the pets! With Halloween just around the corner, remember that many common treats can be dangerous for our four-legged family members.

Keep pets away from:
🍫 Chocolate
🍬 Sugar-free candy and products containing xylitol
🍇 Raisins and other potentially toxic ingredients
🍭 Candy wrappers, which can cause choking or intestinal obstruction

The safest option is to keep the candy bowl somewhere your pet can't reach it and remind children not to share their treats with pets. If your pet gets into something they shouldn't, contact your veterinarian promptly for guidance.

Let's keep Halloween spooky, not scary, for our pets!

Cold weather is coming! Is your pet ready? As temperatures begin to drop, it's important to remember that our pets can be affected by the cold, too.

A few things to keep in mind:
🐾 Limit time outdoors when temperatures are dangerously cold.
🐾 Provide outdoor pets with adequate shelter, bedding, food, and fresh water.
🐾 Check paws for ice, snow, salt, and other irritants after walks.
🐾 Consider a coat or sweater for pets that are especially sensitive to the cold.
🐾 Never leave your pet unattended in a cold vehicle.
🐾 Watch for signs that your pet is becoming too cold, such as shivering, weakness, or lethargy.

Every pet handles cold weather differently, so if you're unsure how much cold your pet can tolerate, talk with your veterinary team. Let's keep those paws warm this fall and winter!
