Having a Fur Baby can put a dent in the family savings especially if the unexpected happens or you’ve adopted a precious Fur Baby with a pre-existing condition.

2 diseases to watch out for are Obesity and Gum Disease. Obesity can lead to a scarier health condition and gum disease can lead to bacteria in the blood.

We at PETport 100% recommend having an Insurance company like dotsure.co.za Pet Insurance to assist in covering your Fur Baby for vet bills, emergency procedures, a health care program, or a pre-existing hereditary condition.

Here are some additional TIPS AND TRICKS for taking care of your Fur kid!

HEALTHY LIFESTYLE

  • Your Fur kid just like the human kid, needs to have a healthy lifestyle, lots of exercise, mental stimulation and a healthy balanced diet is important.

ANNUAL CHECK-UPS

  • Make sure your Fur Kids vaccinations are up to date and at least once a year a Vet’s visit is conducted.

PREMIUM FOOD

  • Swapping and changing between different foods is not good for your Fur Kid’s digestion. Make sure you are sticking to one premium food brand. Don’t forget to check the ingredients!

PREVENTION IS BETTER THAN CURE

  • If you see, suspect, or think something is wrong with your Fur Baby, go for a check-up. Do not delay something you may suspect is wrong with your Fur Kid!

What do you recommend for keeping those vet bills low?
