Guinea pigs need a variety of foods to stay happy and healthy. A high-quality guinea pig is the mainstay of your pet’s diet. Include fresh leafy greens such as Romaine lettuce, kale or spinach. Your piggy may also enjoy other vegetables such as carrots or squash. These vegetables add nutrition and help keep his teeth trim. Small amounts of fruit make a nice treat. Your guinea pig cannot manufacture vitamin C on his own. Thus you need to make sure some of these fruits and vegetables are high in vitamin C. Give your guinea ample amounts of timothy hay to nibble on. This also helps with his teeth and aids the digestive system. Remove uneaten food from your pig’s enclosure daily so it doesn’t spoil. And make sure your guinea pig has access to fresh, clean water at all times. For more information, contact your Conyers, GA veterinarian or click here.

Gingivitis can occur in a variety of cats including the Ocicat. Your vet can tell you that gingivitis is a gum disease that can cause inflammation and irritation to the gums. A good indication that your Ocicat cat may have gingivitis is if she has bad breath. Bad breath does not always mean dental trouble, but you should check with your vet. Research shows that more than 80 percent of pets (this includes Ocicat cats) three years and older develop some form of gingivitis. Common signs of gingivitis in Ocicat cats include red or swollen gums. The inflammation is especially present on the side of the gums facing the inner cheeks.

Did you know that heartworm disease can be a serious condition in dogs? It’s important to have your vet run a test to screen your Pomeranian for heartworms regularly. Heartworms can be fatal if not treated properly. The disease itself is caused by a foot-long worm or heartworm that can invade the heart, lungs and blood vessels of your Pomeranian. This can cause lung disease and heart failure among other things. Prevention is the best possible form of treatment. Your dog should be on a monthly heartworm prevention plan. Once the parasites invade your dog, they can leave a lasting impact even if they are treated and killed off. Heartworms can damage the heart, lungs and arteries. Your vet can run a simple blood test to determine if your Pomeranian has heartworms. Treatment must be provided by your veterinarian Savannah, GA immediately and aggressively if your dog tests positive for heartworms.

Chihuahua’s are a small breed with little to no fur. Depending on where you live, your pet Chihuahua is going to need some extra layers to stay warm during the fall and winter months. If you’re looking for durable outdoor and indoor coats then you might want to look at an outdoors store or a local grain and feed store. Choosing a blanket can be easy if you know the terms that you may encounter on your search. The weight or fill refers to the amount of stuffing used in the blanket to provide extra warmth. If you are looking for a simple rain sheet to keep your Chihuahua dry look for something with a light weight or fill. A rain sheet or lightweight blanket commonly has a weight or fill of 0g meaning there is no stuffing. A sheet with 150 – 225 g will provide protection and warmth. Talk with your vet Savannah, GA for more details.
