Holiday Season Tips<br />
for your Pet<br />
Thanksgiving has come to a close, and the season of the holidays is in full<br />
swing! Our households are starting to hum with the busy-ness of preparing<br />
for travel, holiday dinners and gift wrapping; and likely our pets will not<br />
quite be the centers of attention as much as they would like. We’d like to<br />
give you some helpful tips to make sure that your holiday season is full of fun<br />
for both you and your furry family members!<br />
If you’re looking to travel out of town, whether by car or plane, hopefully you<br />
have already made arrangements to have your pet updated on vaccines, flight<br />
acclimation certificate, and health certificates necessary for your arrangements<br />
and destination. Keep in mind the climate that you are traveling to and the<br />
location of your destination and proximity to vet clinics/pharmacies in case of<br />
emergencies or should you need immediate prescription refills. Be sure to pack<br />
plenty of your pet’s own food (or ship it ahead), so that the stress of traveling and a<br />
HO<br />
change in diet does not cause gastrointestinal upset. Contact your veterinarian to<br />
get any medications refilled before you leave, and a quick exam and conversation<br />
with your vet about any anxiety medications your pet may need before you leave.<br />
