Are You Worried Of Ticks, Fleas, and Mites?

There used to be a time when it was so difficult to get rid of parasites.

Parasites such as ticks, fleas, and mites.

Ticks by themselves are a nuisance!

They bite, cause wounds, and transmit A LOT of diseases that may cause your pet dog to get VERY SICK!

Fleas are pesky creatures. 

When they bite you and your fur baby, you will know!

You will keep on scratching and scratching all the time.

Did you know fleas can also transmit tapeworms if you accidentally swallow them? Yuck!

Then there are mites!  

These are microscopic creatures that cause a lot of itchiness.

One kind of mite, Demodectic mites, is hard to eliminate.

There was a time when dogs got Demodectic mites, and it was accepted that they would live a life of suffering.

Have You Given The Gift Of Life To Your Furbaby?

0 Why Vaccinating Your Pet Against Rabies is a Matter of Life and Death

Everybody wants to keep their fur baby safe and healthy.

You think of getting a proper diet, regular exercise, and a safe place that keeps your pet from harm’s way.

One thing a lot of pet owners overlook is a dangerous virus found almost everywhere!

This is the Rabies virus!

It causes a lot of pain and heartache,  not only for pets but also for humans.

Those infected suffer a slow and painful death.

It’s heartbreaking seeing a person or animal affected by the virus.

What’s scary is the Philippines is one of the nations with the highest rate of rabies-related human deaths.

The disease remains a public health hazard after all these years.

How do we prevent people from getting it?

It’s as simple as having all dogs and cats vaccinated against Rabies.

The Rabies vaccine can be given as early as 16 weeks or earlier.

Yearly vaccinations are recommended against the virus.

Not only is this dangerous for your pet, but for people who will be exposed.

An unvaccinated pet or person exposed to an animal with Rabies will have a tough time.

They must be observed and/or quarantined for several days to check if they get sick of this.

People will have to get painful and expensive post-exposure shots to survive.

As a pet owner, are you willing to risk your fur baby from getting infected with the Rabies virus?

Are you willing to put yourself and your family at risk?

The best way to control the Rabies virus is to immunize your fur babies against it.

It will give you peace of mind besides protecting them.

By the way, a law in the Philippines requires your dog to be vaccinated against Rabies.

Call or message us at (Viber)0908-896-7113 or makatidogandcathospital@gmail.com. Set an appointment, and we’ll schedule the Rabies shots.

Follow Philippines laws and keep your fur babies safe.

0 Do You Know The Hardest Part Of Your Fur Baby’s Body?

What is the toughest part of your fur baby’s body? Do you have an idea?

Can you guess?

Is it bone?

Nope! While it comes in a close second,  it isn’t.

It’s the teeth!

Enamel makes up the teeth which are the strongest part of the body.

Fur babies need their teeth to be strong, so they won’t have problems when they eat.

While teeth are sturdy and can take a lot of punishment, you still need to look after them.

Brushing daily is one way to keep them healthy.

It keeps teeth clean by removing food that may cause tartar buildup. 

Choose food that helps to keep your fur baby’s teeth clean.

Certain types of food and treats will keep pet’s teeth healthy.

It would be best to have occasional dental scaling.

Your veterinarian will recommend how often your pet needs this.

Dental scaling is a procedure that requires general anesthesia.

This means a veterinarian will put your pet to sleep.

This planned procedure requires a battery of tests to ensure your fur baby is healthy enough to undergo the process.  

Dental scaling and brushing prevent dental plaque.

Dental plaque is a substance from food particles and saliva that mix in your mouth.

It will build up in your mouth if not removed, which may lead to gum disease and tooth decay.

If the plaque isn’t removed, this will lead to tartar buildup, leading to other problems.

Tartar may also cause something we all hate, bad breath!

While you may be tempted to remove the tartar, this isn’t recommended as you may damage your pet’s teeth.

Experts should do this.

0 How To Show True Love For Your Fur Babies On Valentine’s Day

Valentine’s Day is one of the most popular days of the year.

0 Give Your Furbaby A Break

Remember when you were young, and your parents made you take medicine or vitamins?

And you just hate the taste?

What about doing the same thing for your fur baby?

To keep them healthy, you may have to give preventatives.

Some are okay.

Your pets will just swallow or chew them.

Some are nasty.

Whatever you do, you struggle to give it to them.

I’ve seen pets that would pretend to swallow a tablet.

When you aren’t looking, they will spit it out!

Then the fun part begins.

You get the tablet and give it again!

And again!

Finally, you give and mix it with something to make them swallow it.

What if I tell you there is such a tablet that 9 out of 10 dogs will just take on their own when offered?

And this tablet will keep your fur babies from getting the dreaded Heartworm.

It will also keep them from getting ticks and fleas.

These also protect your loved ones from getting any intestinal roundworms!

All of these for 30 days!

To find out what this is, call us now at 0908-896-7113 or email us at makatidogandcathospital@gmail.com.

Make it easy for yourself and your fur babies!

0 Wanted: Responsible Pet Owners

I was talking with one of our clients one day.

We were discussing the characteristics of responsible pet owners.

On the flip side, we talked about those who aren’t so responsible.

That’s when she said “Kumuha pa sila ng aso” 

We found it humorous (and sad) that people will get dogs and cats worth a lot.

But they are not willing to spend time and money to keep them healthy.

This disheartens me a lot.

They only want to be known as the “owner” of an expensive pet.

This is a dismal attitude.

Pets are part of the family and should be treated as such!

Pet owners could prevent a lot of diseases by following health protocols.

This would include:

• Vaccinations
• Proper nutrition
• Consistent exercise
• Parasite control and prevention

Preventing some diseases is just too difficult.

But a lot could be!

If only more people could be responsible pet owners.

For the health needs of your fur babies, do give us a call at 0908-896-7113 or message us at makatidogandcathospital@gmail.com.
