🐾 A simple surgery can save a life.

Did you know that unspayed female dogs and cats are at risk of developing pyometra, a serious and life-threatening infection of the uterus? Pyometra can happen quickly and is a true medical emergency. Without immediate surgery, it can be fatal.

Signs of pyometra may include: • Drinking more water than usual • Lethargy • Loss of appetite • Vomiting • A swollen abdomen • Vaginal discharge (though not all pets have visible discharge)

The good news? Pyometra is preventable by having your pet spayed. A routine spay is not only safer for your pet, but it is also far less expensive than emergency surgery and hospitalization for pyometra.

Don't wait until it's an emergency. Protect your furry family member with a routine spay before a preventable condition becomes a life-threatening crisis.

Rabies is real, and it is here in our area.

Many people think indoor pets don't need a rabies vaccine, but all it takes is one bat, one wild animal, or one unexpected escape for your pet to be exposed. Rabies is 100% fatal once symptoms appear, but it is also 100% preventable with vaccination.

In Alabama, rabies vaccination is required by state law for dogs, cats, and ferrets. Protecting your pet doesn't just keep them safe. It also helps protect your family, your neighbors, and our community.

Whether your pet spends every day indoors or loves outdoor adventures, staying current on their rabies vaccine is one of the most important things you can do.

📞 Call Animal Care Center today to schedule your pet's rabies vaccination appointment:

A simple vaccine can save a life. Don't wait until it's too late.

A wild fox tested positive for rabies near U.S. Highway 82 in Autauga County after a property owner noticed it acting abnormally and reported it to health officials. No human exposure occurred, but two vaccinated dogs on the property are receiving booster shots as a precaution.
