The winter holidays are upon us, and if you’re like most folks, you have been caught up in your list and checking it twice. Before the big day arrives, don't forget to get something special for your dog or cat. The veterinarians at Capital Pets Animal Hospital want all pets to stay safe this holiday season, so we decided to share some untraditional gift ideas. We're also here to lend a paw if your pet needs to see a veterinarian in Sacramento in the upcoming weeks. Here are a few unique last-minute gift ideas for pets.
Have Them Microchipped
Each year, around 10 million household pets disappear in the United States. If your pet has been chipped, you're more likely to be reunited with them if they ever get lost. Having a pet microchipped only takes a few seconds, and doing so provides your canine companion or feline friend with permanent identification that lasts their entire life.
Get Serious About Parasite Prevention
If you think parasites are just an annoyance, you better think again. They are damaging to your dog or cat's health, too. Even during the winter, it is crucial to keep your fur baby on an effective parasite preventive. Choose products directly from us instead of shopping online, and you won’t have to be concerned about effectiveness or safety.
Schedule a Wellness Exam
We understand that visiting a vet's office for a physical exam probably does not sound like a great present to your cat or dog. But whether they like it or not, bringing them in for routine care is the key to maintaining their health and happiness. Scheduling a wellness exam for your cat or dog is a loving gift and an awesome way to end the year on a positive note.
