Today is Take Your Cat to the Vet Day

Today is National “Take Your Cat to the Vet” Day, so it’s a good time to schedule your cat’s next visit with us at Capitol Illini Veterinary Services. Many cats don’t get out of the house much, but it’s still important for them to come in and visit us at least once a year, and sometimes more if their a senior cat. Regular visits to us can help ensure that your pet remains healthy for years to come.

Over-the-Counter Medications & Pets

It’s important to keep your medicines out of your pet’s reach at all times, because human medication can be toxic to your pets! When your pet feels sick or is acting under the weather, never give them a human medicine, but bring them in for veterinary care instead. Even if you mean well, a dose of human medicine could be fatal to your pet.
