🐱 Trust what you notice.

You know your pet’s normal habits better than anyone, so small changes in their appetite, energy, behaviour, bathroom habits, or daily routine are worth paying attention to.

Even if a change seems minor, sharing what you’ve noticed with your veterinarian can provide helpful information about your pet’s health.

When something feels different, don’t hesitate to bring it up at your pet’s next visit. πŸΎπŸ’š

🐾 Small clues can say a lot about your pet’s health.

Pets can’t tell us when something feels different, and some changes may be easy to miss at home.

Routine checkups give your veterinary team an opportunity to assess your pet’s overall health, notice changes over time, and discuss anything that may need a closer look.

Even when your pet seems happy and healthy, regular veterinary visits are an important part of supporting their health throughout every stage of life. πŸΆπŸ±πŸ’š

πŸŽ‰πŸΎ Two Incredible Achievements Worth Celebrating! πŸΎπŸŽ‰

Please join us in congratulating Dr. Michelle Barboza on two outstanding professional accomplishments! πŸ‘

πŸ… Dr. Barboza recently earned her Diplomate status with the Latin American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists (CLOVE – ColΓ©gio Latino-americano de Oftalmologistas VeterinΓ‘rios)! This achievement reflects her dedication, expertise, and commitment to advancing veterinary ophthalmology.

πŸ“– Dr. Barboza also had an article published in the latest issue of The Canadian Veterinary Journal! We are so proud to see her knowledge and expertise being shared with the wider veterinary community.

We are incredibly fortunate to have Dr. Barboza as part of our team at Staples Animal Hospital. Her passion for veterinary ophthalmology and dedication to providing exceptional care to her patients continue to inspire us.

Congratulations, Dr. Barboza! We are so proud of you and all that you have accomplished! πŸ’™πŸΎ

🦟❀️ HEARTWORM PREVENTION IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN EVER.

Heartworm disease is transmitted through the bite of an infected mosquito. Unfortunately, treatment options for dogs diagnosed with heartworm are becoming more limited, making prevention more important than ever.

We want to remind our clients that heartworm prevention should continue for the entire prevention season β€” June through November.

πŸ‚ Even though the weather is beginning to cool, don't stop your pet's prevention early!

Heartworm preventatives work by targeting immature heartworms your pet may have been exposed to during the previous weeks. This is why continuing through November is so important, even when mosquito activity appears to have slowed down.

And remember β€” parasite season isn't over when summer ends!

πŸ•·οΈ Ticks can remain active at temperatures around 0Β°C and above, which means tick exposure is still possible throughout the fall and even during mild periods in the winter.

Please make sure your pet receives all of their scheduled doses through November and speak with our team if you're unsure when their next dose is due.

When treatment options are limited, prevention matters more than ever. ❀️ 🐾

πŸ‚ Sweater weather is here β€” but fall brings a few pet hazards worth keeping on your radar! 🐾

As you're enjoying the cooler weather, remember:

πŸ„ Wild mushrooms: Some can be toxic to pets, so don't let your pet eat mushrooms growing outdoors.

πŸš— Antifreeze: Even a small amount can be extremely dangerous. Clean spills immediately and keep containers securely stored.

🐭 Rodenticides: As rodents start looking for warm places, rodent poison use can increase. Keep these products completely inaccessible to pets.

πŸŒ™ Shorter days: If you're walking in the early morning or evening, reflective gear or lights can help keep you and your pet visible.

πŸ•·οΈ Ticks: Cooler weather does NOT mean tick season is over! Ticks can remain active whenever temperatures are around 0Β°C and above.

Enjoy those beautiful fall walks β€” just don't forget about the seasonal hazards! 🍁🐢

πŸ’Š β€œMy pet has been taking this medication for years β€” why do they need an exam to keep getting it?”

It's a question we completely understand!

Even when a medication has been working well, your pet's health can change over time. Regular veterinary examinations allow your veterinarian to:
🩺 Assess your pet's current health
βš–οΈ Check for weight changes that may affect dosing
πŸ’Š Make sure the medication and dose are still appropriate
πŸ”¬ Determine whether monitoring or bloodwork may be needed
❀️ Catch new health concerns that may not be obvious at home

Annual examinations also help maintain the veterinarian-client-patient relationship needed for your veterinarian to safely prescribe medications.

Medication refills aren't just about the prescription β€” they're about making sure that prescription continues to be the right choice for your pet today. 🐾

🦷 β€œWhy does my pet need dental X-rays if you can already see their teeth?”

Because there's a lot happening below the gumline that we can't see! πŸ‘€

A large portion of each tooth is hidden beneath the gums. A tooth may look relatively normal on the surface while problems are developing underneath.

Dental X-rays allow our veterinary team to evaluate the tooth roots and surrounding structures and can help identify problems that aren't visible during an oral examination alone.

Think of it this way: looking inside your pet's mouth only gives us part of the picture. 🧩

Dental X-rays help us see what's happening below the surface so we can make more informed decisions about your pet's dental care. 🐢🐱🦷

πŸ”΄ Does your cat LOVE chasing the laser pointer?

Laser pointers can be a great way to get cats moving, but there's one important thing to keep in mind: they can never actually catch it! 🐱

Cats are natural hunters. When they stalk, chase and pounce on that little red dot, they're going through part of their natural hunting sequence β€” but without something physical to catch, the β€œhunt” never gets completed. For some cats, this can lead to frustration.

That doesn't mean you necessarily have to put the laser away!

🐾 At the end of your laser session, direct your cat toward a physical toy they can actually pounce on and β€œcatch.” You can even follow playtime with a small treat.

Chase ➑️ Pounce ➑️ Catch ➑️ Success! 🎯

A small change can make laser play much more satisfying for your cat. ❀️
