How do you know if you’ve got a scaredy cat or an anxious cat? Well, a shy cat may just have a shy personality. Cat anxiety can often sneakily creep up or show up out of nowhere, but there are common symptoms you can recognize! Your team at Summeridge Animal Clinic is here to shed light on keeping your cat healthy, happy, and stress-free!

Fleas and ticks are the small bugs that cause humans and animals big problems. These parasites carry serious zoonotic diseases that can be transmitted to your human family members from your furry loved ones. They’re commonly passed between pets and people in the home and yard. Since we want to cuddle our pets, it’s particularly important that they are on monthly flea, tick, and heartworm control. 

Summeridge Animal Clinic is here with some solutions to curb the critters lurking on your pet’s skin. We want you to bond with your pet through affection and attention, and this assurance against pests will keep everyone safe.

Cat owners far and wide know that shedding is something that simply comes with the territory. Most of the time, all you have to do is get out the good ‘ole lint roller to clean up your clothing or furniture. But certain times of the year, you might have to lug out the extreme power-matic vacuum to suck up the intense volume of cat hair. It piles up in the corners, accumulates beneath furniture, and comes off on your hand when you pet your sweet kitty’s backside. Cat shedding can get the best of many cat owners, but luckily it’s not something to worry too much about.
