At Guthrie Pet Hospital, we receive calls daily about pets ingesting something in their environment.  There are many household toxins that are toxic to pets.  It’s important to be aware of the most common toxins so that you can keep your pet from harm’s way.

No, not me personally but I hear this a LOT more than you would think! To the people who say that at best their cat is indifferent to them or at worst plain hates them I say this; don’t take it personally but you are probably doing something wrong.

Last week several lost animals were brought into the clinic, so I thought I would re-run this article on animal identification.  It can be difficult to reunite lost pets with their owners especially with lack of identification.  Less than 50% of lost dogs and 20% of lost cats had any identification when they went missing. Only 4% of lost cats and 14% of lost dogs are reunited with their owners. Whereas, approximately 38% of lost cats and 52% of lost dogs with microchips are reunited with their owners.
