Did you know that Hypoglycemia can occur in Orange Tabby cats whether they have feline diabetes or not? Hypoglycemia is when a cat’s blood sugar or glucose level is severely low. It can cause your cat to have a sudden decrease in energy, change in appetite, appear weak, restless, confused and even pass out. Hypoglycemia can happen for a few reasons. First is the result of an underlying health issue or pre-existing health condition. For instance, another health condition can cause the brain to not recognize the insulin supply therefore causing hypoglycemia. The condition can also be caused by an incorrect insulin dosage if the cat has feline diabetes. In order to prevent hypoglycemia, make sure your Orange Tabby is receiving the correct amount of insulin recommended by the vet. Also ensure that your cat sees the animal hospital Marietta, GA for routine checkups and wellness exams.

Orange Tabby cats and other types of cats can be prone to a variety of health issues both major and minor. Some health conditions can be treated and monitored and your Orange Tabby can live a fairly normal life with medication and exercise or diet changes. Other health conditions may require other extreme treatments including ongoing vet care, surgeries, or other medications. Orange Tabby cats that have diabetes, which is a common health condition, may develop other serious conditions because of it including Ketoacidosis. This is a metabolic imbalance that happens when diabetes is not treated properly. It can be caused when fat and protein is broken down due to a need for more metabolic energy.

Your rabbit needs a variety of foods to keep healthy and happy. Start with a high-quality rabbit pellet. Purchase food from a reputable pet supply store with high turnover to ensure freshness. Give your rabbit fresh, leafy greens such as romaine lettuce, spinach or kale. Add other crunchy vegetables such as squash or carrots for added nutrition. Small pieces of fruit such as apple slices or strawberries several times a week make a nice treat. Your rabbit will need lots of hay. Hay adds roughage to help your rabbit’s digestive tract work properly and all that nibbling keeps his teeth trim. Alfalfa hay has too much protein for adult rabbits so timothy hay makes a better choice. You can get small bales of dried hay from a pet store or fresh hay from a feed store or online. Ensure your rabbit has access to fresh, clean water

People can smell the odor of cat urine in a home. Candles and sprays only mask the odor and don’t do anything to remove the odor. Preventing your cat from urinating outside the litter boxcan keep your home odor-free. Reduce territorial marking with strong-smelling urine by spaying or neutering your cat. The litter box may stink and keeping it clean helps but it’s your cat’s reaction to a stinky box that is the main problem. If the litter box is too dirty, your cat will find an inappropriate place to urinate such as a cushion, rug or a newspaper. This urine is difficult to clean up and its odor is pervasive. Keep the litter box very clean. Scoop the box daily and do a complete litter replacement about every three weeks or more often as needed. Give your kitty privacy a

This will cause him to be appropriately fatigued and work off stress. When you need to leave, just leave without any fuss. If you make a big deal of leaving or returning, it may reinforce your dog’s anxiety. Give your dog fun toys to play with while you are gone.

Making sure your Malamute is wearing some type of ID or ID tag is very important in case he ever gets away from you, escapes the house, or gets lost. If your pup is found, someone will need to be able to identify him and call you. Microchips are very common, but if the person who finds your dog doesn’t have a scanner or access to a vet or someone with a scanner, then there is no way to read the chip and ID the dog. However, if your Malamute has a collar with an ID tag, then someone can identify your pup right away. You can find an ID tag for the collar at most pet stores. Kiosks are often set up for you to personalize the tags with your name and phone number. It’s a good idea to use your last name and your phone number. For more details, contact your veterinary clinic Marietta, GA.
