Sometimes gradual weight gain is hard to notice when you see your pet every day.

A healthy body condition involves more than the number on the scale. Your veterinarian can evaluate your pet's ribs, waist, body shape, muscle condition, age, and lifestyle to determine an appropriate weight range.

Wondering where your pet falls? Call (315) 676-2860 to schedule a wellness visit.

Cats may be more independent in some ways, but they still need plenty of care and enrichment. Playtime, scratching opportunities, clean litter boxes, appropriate nutrition, dental care, and routine veterinary visits all contribute to a healthy life. Team cat, team dog, or team both? For pet care questions, call (315) 676-2860.

Collars and ID tags are important, but they can break or become lost. A microchip provides permanent identification that stays with your pet.

There's one important catch: your contact information needs to stay current in the microchip registry. If you've recently moved or changed phone numbers, take a moment to update it.

Interested in microchipping your pet? Call (315) 676-2860.

Dental disease can be painful long before a pet shows obvious signs of discomfort. Bad breath, red gums, difficulty chewing, dropping food, or avoiding harder foods can all signal a problem.

Regular dental exams and at-home care can help protect your pet's teeth and gums throughout their life.

Have questions about your pet's dental health? Call (315) 676-2860.

Heartworm disease can cause lasting damage to the heart, lungs, and blood vessels, and infected pets may not show obvious symptoms early on.

The good news is that heartworm disease is preventable. Staying consistent with veterinarian-recommended prevention and testing gives your pet important protection against this mosquito-borne disease.

Have questions about heartworm testing or prevention? Call (315) 676-2860.

Keeping breakable or potentially dangerous items out of reach can help curious cats explore safely. For more cat care advice, call (315) 676-2860.
