\"Cat<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

When it comes to Fido or Kitty\u2019s health, preventing harmful conditions before they develop is key. Thanks to modern veterinary medicine, many damaging health issues can be avoided completely. This means less suffering for your pet\u2014and less worry and expense for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s why the team at Bowman Veterinary Hospital encourages all forms of preventive care. We\u2019d like to share our 5 top tips for keeping your pet healthy and happy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

1. Regular Check-Ups<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cats and dogs alike should get a checkup at least once a year, according to Partners for Healthy Pets<\/a>, a committee of the American Veterinary Medical Foundation. Foregoing that yearly appointment may not seem like a big deal. But as Partners for Healthy Pets would like to remind us all, it\u2019s like a human going without a doctor’s visit for five years. Yikes! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

During a yearly checkup, our veterinary team will give your pup or kitty a nose-to-tail exam<\/a> to make sure everything\u2019s healthy. If we spot a problem, we can address it right away. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Vaccinations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Vaccines help prepare your pet\u2019s immune system to fight off deadly diseases like rabies, distemper, parvovirus, hepatitis, leptospirosis, and parainfluenza. And that\u2019s just in dogs! Aside from rabies, cats are affected by different diseases. Core vaccines for your kitty help prevent feline calicivirus, herpesvirus-1, panleukopenia, and leukemia. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

California requires all dogs to be up-to-date on rabies vaccinations. Many counties and cities in our state require cats to have the rabies vaccine, too. Other core vaccines are required before you can take your pet to a dog park or board your pet at a facility while you\u2019re on vacation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Diet and Exercise<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A healthy diet and daily exercise help your pet ward off a whole host of conditions. Arthritis. Obesity. Heart disease. Depression<\/a>. The list is long. And if you participate in the fun with your pet, you\u2019ll reap some of the benefits, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Need tips for good exercise ideas or custom diet tips<\/a> for your pet? Our team can help! Schedule an appointment<\/a> to get started. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Dental Care<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Most pets have some form of dental disease by the time they\u2019re 3 years old. Dental disease can affect the entire body, not just the mouth. It\u2019s something we check for each time we see your pet for a wellness visit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When your pet visits us for a wellness appointment, we can set up a dental cleaning. Routine veterinary dental cleanings also include comprehensive X-rays to see everything<\/em><\/a> <\/em>that\u2019s going on in your pet\u2019s mouth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With regular dental care, we can work together<\/a> to keep your pet\u2019s mouth and body healthy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Parasite Prevention<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

From fleas<\/a> to ear mites and heartworm to hookworm, parasites can plague your pet\u2019s health. Some, like ticks, can bestow lifelong diseases on your pet. Others, like heartworm, can be fatal. At Bowman Veterinary Hospital, our wellness appointments include parasite prevention and screening. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We don\u2019t want any squirmy, crawly nasties bugging your pet, and we\u2019ll do everything in our power to keep them away. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Give us a call at (530) 823\u20116306 to learn how we can build a wellness plan for your furry friend. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
