Random Stuff By Paul

Have you ever considered taking your cat to the feline vet, but keep putting it off because it’s too stressful? Not only are your cats stressed from the experienced, but the act of caging them and getting them to the vet stresses you out, too. As cats are very aware of their surrounding environment, any major changes to the environment can upset and traumatize them. And the vet clinic has to be the most stressful place of all for a pet. What can be done?

Have you considered a mobile veterinarian?

Interest in this area of service has sparked the development of many mobile vet hospitals. Just think of how much happier your cat would be if he wasn’t stuck in a cage in a waiting room full of big, barking dogs. Your frightened feline will not have to travel further than the end of your driveway for gentle experienced veterinary services. And for those scaredy cats you may have, most examinations, vaccinations, and lab tests can be conducted inside the home itself.

If you have cats, chances are you’ve had more than your share of failures at getting your cat into a pet carrier. A housecall vet can help! A vet’s experienced staff can not only help you put your cat in her carrier, but take her where she needs to go. It’s rare for the services provided by the mobile clinic to be inadequate, but if special monitoring or surgery is needed the vet will provide transportation to and from any specialized facilities.

If you have one cat, then you have more than one cat. The mobile Long Island veterinarians believe that the more pets you have the better it is! They also fully understand that as difficult as it is to get one cat to the vet, it’s even more difficult to get a brood of them to the vet! This is why most will only charge one housecall fee per visit no matter how many animals there are. Some even offer a multi-pet discount for similar services provided.

Still don’t think you need a housecall vet? You probably think your cat is healthy. And since he stays indoors, how often does he really need shots? So she doesn’t need veterinary care. It is this false belief that has led the cat - America’s most popular pet - to being the pet that is the most underserved by veterinarians. Kitties often mask disease so well that you may not know your cat is sick until it is too late. If even one of your animals goes outside, your entire household of cats is at risk of disease and parasite. Some of these can even be transmitted to humans, especially children with weak immune systems.

Don’t let your kitties wind up suffering from an illness. Get them the treatment they need from a mobile feline hospital today!
