This month is Pet Cancer Awareness Month and we don’t want to forget about our furry friends! Cancer is the number one disease-related killer for our dogs and cats. With May being Pet Cancer Awareness Month, take the extra precaution and check your pet to make sure they don’t have any of the following symptoms. If your pet does have some of the following symptoms, it doesn’t always mean they have cancer or another illness, but be sure to keep an eye on it if it doesn’t get better. Also, if your pet hasn’t been in for their annual exam, it might be a good time to get that scheduled! Our pets need annual exams just like humans, so be sure to get Fido in for his visit and keep your pet happy and healthy.
