Attention Pet Parents:
It is once again time for the monthly ritual of deception, trickery, and mild chaos.
Yes, it is Prevention Day.
Please locate your beloved pets and administer their monthly heartworm, flea, and tick preventatives before the tiny bloodsuckers of the night decide your home is a free-for-all buffet.
A Quick Field Guide to Administration:
The Dogs: Wrap the chewable in a block of cheese, a dollop of peanut butter, or a full slice of deli turkey. Watch in awe as your dog swallows the whole thing in 0.2 seconds without chewing, unaware they have just ingested medicine.
The Cats: Prepare for battle. Assemble your supplies (towel, leather gloves, top-spot squeeze tube, thick armor). Attempt to casually approach the feline. Watch them immediately sense a rift in the spacetime continuum, teleport under the bed, and glare at you with the intensity of a thousand burning suns.
The Aftermath: If using a topical, enjoy the next 4 hours of your pet walking around looking like they applied pomade exclusively to the back of their neck. Do not pet the shiny wet spot. We know you want to. Resist.
Why are we doing this?
Because mosquitoes don't care about your feelings, fleas think your rug is a 5-star resort, and ticks are actual horror movie villains.
Do it today so you don't end up in our lobby next month asking why your house is hopping.
You’ve got this. May the force (and the cheese) be with you.
