FELINE BRODETELLA

Feline Bordetella bronchiseptica could pose a serious threat to you cat's well-being.  We can finally offer your cat protection against this highly contagious bacteria in the form of a brand new intranasal vaccination.

Recent research has concluded that 85% of cats have been exposed to feline Bordetella.  One of the primary causes of upper respiratory infection, Bordetella can lead to pneumonia and may cause death.

So, if your cat came from a shelter, goes outside or to a groomer or boarding facility, or wandered up to your house, there is a strong potential for exposure.   Call us today at 255-5595 for an appointment to vaccinate your cat.

HEARTWORM PREVENTION FOR YOU CAT

We are now recommending Heartworm Prevention for your cat.   researchers are finding an alarming increase in the number of cats affected by heartworm disease.  Cats react much more severely to heartworms than dogs, just one worm may cause serious illness or even death.

To protect your cat from this terrible disease, we now have HEARTGUARD for CATS. This once-a-month chewable treat can be given whole or broken up and mixed with food.  It is 100% effective in preventing heartworm disease in cats, and can be given if your cat is already infected to prevent further infection.  In addition, it will treat and prevent hookworms in your cat.

WHAT TO DO ABOUT FLEAS!

Have you been wondering what you were going to do about fleas this summer?   We are glad to introduce a new, more convenient way for you to fight fleas.   Most of you are familiar with the product Program, which prevents flea egs from hatching and developing into adults.  In the past, there were only two methods available for cat owners, the suspension and the pill, both having to be given monthly.

Now, it is available in a six-month injection!

So, if you are having trouble remembering to give the pill or if you just aren't sure if your cat ate all of the suspension, the new injectable is purr-fect for you.  Give us a call at 606-255-5595 to set up an appointment for your cat to receive this easy injection.
