Fleas and ticks don't end when summer does

Fleas can still be active even when the weather gets cold, so keeping up with flea and tick prevention is important year-round. Fleas can hide in your lawn, carpet, bedding, or furniture — just waiting for a chance to pounce. Regular flea control helps protect your pet and limit infestations in your home.
Talk with your Banfield veterinarian about the right flea and tick prevention for your pet’s age, breed, health, and lifestyle.

🐾 Is your cat anxious, sick, or just shy?

It can be difficult to tell whether a cat is naturally introverted, feeling stressed, or dealing with an underlying medical issue. Because cats are masters at masking discomfort, behavioral changes often serve as the first clue that something is wrong.

Why a vet visit comes first

Conditions like urinary tract issues, dental pain, arthritis, digestive upset, or thyroid disease can mirror anxiety symptoms.

Before assuming a change in temperament is purely behavioral, a comprehensive wellness checkup helps rule out pain or illness so your feline companion can get the right care. Notice changes in your cat’s routine or behavior?

Could your dog have worms? Know the signs

Intestinal worms (tapeworm, hookworm, whipworms, roundworm) are common in dogs. Look out for these symptoms of worms:

🐾 Diarrhea
🐾 Weight loss
🐾 Increased or decreased appetite
🐾 Mucus or blood in stool
🐾 Dully, dry coat

Different types of worms present their own range of symptoms — or no symptoms and then make pets really sick — so it’s important to get your dog checked out by a veterinarian if you suspect they could have worms.
