Puppy and Kitten Care
There is no denying it, puppies and kittens are adorable. It’s easy to fall in love with these little creatures galloping around your home. The initial six months of life for puppies and kittens is one of the cutest and most difficult times of owning a pet. They require a lot patience, diligence and special care. That’s why the Winnetka Animal Hospital offers its help to new pet owners.
The first thing you should do with your new puppy or kitten is make an appointment with one of our doctors. Younger animals are more vulnerable to diseases such as respiratory infections and parasites such as fleas and worms. We’ll start with a physical exam as well as a fecal test to rule out any potential problems. We’ll also ensure your new pet is immunized according to state and local regulations.
We are also happy to become an all-inclusive resource for our clients. In addition to receiving some of the highest quality veterinary care, you’ll also receive sound advice on common problems. You can feel confident in knowing that you can call us to discuss anything from housebreaking and training to proper grooming and hygiene. We understand that owning a new puppy or kitten is a lot like having a new baby in the house and it can easily become overwhelming. We are here to help. Call us today to find out how.
