Ottawa County has reported its first confirmed animal case of rabies this year after a bat tested positive for the virus.

It's an important reminder that every dog and cat should stay current on their rabies vaccination—even if they live indoors. Bats can make their way into homes, and just one unexpected encounter can put your pet at risk.

The first Ottawa County animal case of rabies this year has been discovered after a bat has tested positive for the disease Wednesday:https://www.woodtv.com/news/ottawa-county/first-ottawa-county-rabies-case-of-the-year-found-in-bat/

A Note for Our Exotic Pet Families

We've heard your concerns about the recent reports of cyclosporiasis and the safety of feeding leafy greens to your exotic pets. We've been looking into the available information to help answer your questions.

Based on what is currently known, Cyclospora is a human parasite and is not known to affect our exotic companions—including reptiles, birds, amphibians, snakes, or small mammals. That means you can continue offering your pet's favorite leafy greens as part of a healthy, balanced diet.

As always, we recommend:
- Washing fresh produce thoroughly before feeding it to your pet.
- Washing your hands after handling fresh vegetables and your pet's food.
- Storing produce properly and discarding any spoiled or wilted greens.

We'll continue monitoring any new information and recommendations, and if guidance changes, we'll be sure to share it with you. If you have any questions about your exotic pet's diet, don't hesitate to reach out—we're always happy to help!

Heat Advisory for Today!

With temperatures expected to climb to 97°F today, it's a great day to let your pets relax indoors and stay cool!

Extreme heat can become dangerous quickly for both dogs and cats. Here are a few ways to help keep them safe:

💦 Keep fresh, cool water available at all times.
🌡️ Limit outdoor time, especially during the hottest part of the day (11 a.m.–6 p.m.).
🐾 Save walks and playtime for early morning or later in the evening when temperatures are lower.
🔥 Remember that asphalt and concrete can burn paw pads. If it's too hot for your hand, it's too hot for their paws.
🏡 If your pet spends time outside, make sure they have access to shade, but remember that shade alone may not be enough on extremely hot days.
❄️ Frozen treats, cooling mats, or a kiddie pool can be a fun way to help your pet beat the heat.

Keep an eye out for signs of overheating, including heavy panting, excessive drooling, weakness, vomiting, or difficulty breathing. If your pet seems distressed, move them to a cool area and contact your veterinarian right away.

Let's all do our part to help our four-legged family members stay safe during today's heat. Stay cool, stay hydrated, and give your pets a little extra TLC!

Loud noises can be more than just startling—they can be incredibly stressful for many dogs and cats. Fireworks, thunderstorms, and other sudden sounds may trigger noise phobia, causing pets to become anxious or fearful.

Signs of noise anxiety may include:

- Pacing or trembling

- Hiding or refusing to come out

- Excessive panting or drooling

- Trying to escape

- Vocalizing more than usual

- Loss of appetite

The good news is you don't have to wait until your pet is overwhelmed. There are safe and effective prescription medications that can help reduce anxiety and make stressful events much more manageable. If your pet struggles during fireworks or storms, contact us before the next event so we can discuss the best options for them.

Here are a few ways you can help your pet feel more comfortable at home:

- Create a quiet, safe space where they can retreat.

- Play calming music or use a white noise machine to help mask loud sounds.

- Close windows and curtains to reduce noise and flashes of light.

- Offer their favorite blanket, bed, or toy for comfort.

- Keep them occupied with treats, food puzzles, or a stuffed enrichment toy.

- Stay calm and act normally—your pet often takes cues from you.

- Make sure your pet's ID tags and microchip information are up to date in case they become frightened and escape.

Remember, every pet responds differently. If your dog or cat experiences significant fear during loud noises, we're here to help create a plan that keeps them safe, comfortable, and as stress-free as possible.

📞 Give us a call to discuss whether anti-anxiety medications or other treatment options are right for your pet!

Flea fact: It only takes a quick encounter to bring fleas into your home.

Even after adult fleas are gone, eggs, larvae, and pupae can continue developing in the environment—meaning new fleas can emerge for weeks to months. And fleas don’t always come from pets alone—people can accidentally bring them inside on clothing or shoes.

Year-round prevention is the best way to break the flea cycle and keep your pets (and home) protected. 🐶🐱✨
