Today is National Pet Obesity Awareness Day --
Studies have shown that over half of our pets in the United States are either overweight or obese. Even a few extra pounds can put your pet at risk for health conditions like diabetes and osteoarthritis...so helping them maintain a healthy weight is a crucial part of keeping them happy and healthy! Give us a call today if you would like to have your pet evaluated by one of our veterinarians. Together, we can help you develop a wellness plan to keep your pet in tip-top shape!
You've got questions, VCA's got answers!

November is 'Adopt-A-Senior-Pet Month.
Every year, thousands of pets are abandoned just because they have a little grey on their muzzle or are a little slower at playing fetch. Studies have shown that of all of the animals in shelters, seniors are the hardest to adopt out to new homes - and can spend up to four times longer in the shelter than their younger friends.
If you are looking to adopt a new family member, please consider visiting the San Antonio Humane Society and asking to meet some of their great senior pets who are looking for families to love!
Happy Birthday Morgan! We hope you have a wonderful day!
REMINDER: Please remember to bring pets indoors when temperatures drop! If it's too cold for you to be outside, it's too cold for your pets. Give outdoor pets a warm shelter space in a garage, laundry room or bathroom in your home. Limit indoor pet's time outside to brief periods -- and remember -- if it's uncomfortable for you to be outside, its too cold for your pet too!
