Cat & Dog Care

Since pets cannot tell us what they are feeling, diseases and illnesses are often present before humans recognize them. Moreover, as part of their survival instinct, many animals hide the early signs of diseases due to high tolerance to pain and adaptability. The result is that an illness must be critically advanced before any obvious signs are apparent. However, some early warning signs are often evident to a veterinarian during an animal wellness exam. Remember, since your pet ages from 7-10 per 1 year of ours that means that seeing your pet every 6 months is like visiting your doctor every 3.5 years. Because of this, it’s extremely important that they receive a wellness examination consistently to ensure optimal health.

When a disease or condition is noticed in its early stages, steps can often be taken to prevent irreversible damage, thereby increasing the chances of a successful outcome. Additionally, combating problems before they escalate is often far less costly and less time intensive than waiting until it impacts the pet’s quality of life.
