Is your pet asking to see the vet? Our pets find unique ways to get our attention and communicate with us. However, their methods aren’t always so clear. Here are some behaviors that your pet may be using to ask you for help:
• Whimpering
• Limping
• Decreased activity levels.
• Unresponsiveness
• Refusal to stand.
• Unusual behavior
If you are recognizing these or other odd signs in your pet, it might be time to consult a veterinarian.

Notice your cat gaining some weight and losing interest in their toys? Just like us, cats can get bored of the same games and toys they used to enjoy. Here are some ideas your feline friends are sure to enjoy and also get some required exercise!
• Make a hockey rink. All you need to do is place a small ball into a carboard box or bathtub and your frisky feline will have a blast flying across the “rink” chasing the “hockey puck”.
• Invest in a new cat wand. Cats can simply need something new and exciting. Even if you already have one, try a style you haven’t gotten before.
• Create an agility course made up off fascinating objects such as empty paper towel rolls to jump over, boxes to jump on, and tubes to run through.
Let us know if these ideas work for your cat or if you’ve tried other ideas of your own.
For questions or concerns about your cat’s health and well-being don’t hesitate to call us at: (304) 636-7886 or make an appointment at: elkinsvet.com/
