What are the biggest threats to cats and dogs in Cape Coral FL?

In Cape Coral, Florida, pets face significant risks from heatstroke and dehydration due to the area's hot and humid climate. The prevalence of mosquitoes year-round increases the threat of heart-worm disease, which can be fatal if untreated. Our local wildlife is also a concern, especially alligators and the invasive Bufo toads. The risk of hurricanes and flooding displacing pets or injuring them is also very real.

How can I avoid my dog from having a dangerous encounter with wildlife in Cape Coral FL?

To safeguard your dog from wildlife in Cape Coral, FL, always keep them on a leash, especially during walks in areas close to natural habitats. Schedule walks during midday when predatory wildlife is less active, avoiding early morning and evening. Secure your yard with a fence that includes underground barriers to prevent animals from digging under. Additionally, remove outdoor food sources that could attract wildlife, such as unsecured trash bins and leftover pet food.

How can I tell if my animal has heat stroke?

If your furry buddy starts panting like they've run a marathon, slobbering more than usual, or seems to be struggling to catch their breath, it might be a sign of heatstroke. Keep an eye out for them acting all sluggish, stumbling around, or if they start getting upset stomachs with vomiting or diarrhea. And if things look really serious—like they’re about to pass out—it’s time to cool them down gently and call us for an assessment. We're here to help keep your pet healthy.

How can I prepare my pet for an incoming

hurricane in Cape Coral FL?

Here's how to get your furry friend hurricane-ready. Start by setting up a cozy, safe spot away from those pesky windows where they can ride out the storm. Pack a ‘storm survival kit’(just in case you have to evacuate at the last minute) with all the essentials: munchies, water, their meds, and don’t forget a snuggly toy or blanket for comfort. Make sure they’ve got some ID—like a flashy collar and up-to-date microchip—just in case you two get split up. It always pays to have a pet-friendly escape plan in your back pocket!

What should I do if my cat or dog touches a Bufo toad?

If your curious critter has a meet-and-greet with a Bufo toad, it's time to spring into action. First off, gently rinse out their mouth (or paw) with water, angling the head downwards so the water doesn’t go down their throat. Then, wipe it out with a damp cloth to snag any leftover toxins. Once you've done that give us a call straight away for an assessment and we can determine

if further treatment is necessary.

I have a nervous dog with separation anxiety who misbehaves every time I go out. How can I help him calm down when he's alone? 

Start by creating a comforting environment with familiar items like their bed and favorite toys. Training him to be alone starts with you leaving your dog alone for short periods and gradually increase the time as they become more comfortable. Other things to try
are calming aids like a pheromone diffuser, soothing music, anxiety wraps, puzzle treat dispensers, or even videos made to entertain pets. When you are home make sure to provide plenty of play time , physical and mental stimulation, and exercise and puzzle toys.
