Preventative
Care and
​Screenings

​The most important part of medicine is preventative care and health screenings. This is so we can slow disease processes before they do any further damage to your pet or even stop them from affecting your companion all together.
 
The most common types of preventative care come in the forms of vaccines and parasitic preventions. Vaccines help protect your pet from viruses and bacterial infections that he or she is prone to based on their age, location, and exposure level. Not all pets need the same vaccines. In fact, it’s not uncommon to have two dogs from the same household on two different vaccination schedules. Speak to your City Limits vet about what vaccines are recommended for your individual pets.
 
As mentioned, another important part of preventative care is parasitic control.  This includes heartworm prevention, flea prevention, tick prevention, and general deworming for intestinal parasites that could to be passed to you or your family. There are many different products out there that can keep your pet protected; again, your vet can help you decide which is best for your pet and family.
 
Lastly, general health screenings play a huge part in catching and diagnosing disease early. Did you know that an estimated 15% of the cat population has silent heart disease? This means that your pet may not show any outward signs of a potentially deadly disease. Changes in blood work can help us determine whether further diagnostics or treatments are recommended for your furry friend.  We recommend blood work in senior pets at least once yearly and heartworm testing in all dogs at their annual exam. Our outdoor kitty patients get yearly feline immunodeficiency virus and feline leukemia testing for their health benefit and the health of the entire outdoor cat population.
