April Showers Brings May Flowers…and Furbabies!

Why your Vet Recommends a Urinalysis
Pets cannot tell us when something doesn’t feel right. This is why your Veterinarian may recommend a urinalysis (along with bloodwork, x-rays, etc.) These tests tell your Veterinarian the story of how your pet is doing on the inside. We know it can be confusing when your Veterinarian wants to run a urinalysis on your pet, even though your pet is not displaying any symptoms of troubles with their bladder.

When your cat does not want your affection, they have no problem showing you they want none of it (through their claws and teeth!). So, it isn’t a surprise that most cat owners don’t get a very good look into … Read More

The Trials and Tribulations of an Outdoor Cat
