Christmas is almost here!. Before the big day arrives, don't forget to get something special for your dog or cat. The veterinarians here at Stoneridge Animal Hospital want your pet to stay safe this holiday season. That is why we decided to talk about some great — though untraditional — gift suggestions for cats and dogs. We're also here to lend a paw if your pet needs to see a veterinarian in Edmond in the upcoming weeks. Here are a few unique last-minute gift ideas for pets.

Have Them Microchipped

Every year, around 10 million household pets are stolen or lost in the United States. Getting your furry friend microchipped improves the odds of seeing them again if tragedy strikes. The veterinarians at Stoneridge Animal Hospital can microchip your pet in just a few seconds, and the simple procedure provides lasting peace of mind for you and protection for your pet.

Stuff Their Stocking with Parasite Preventives

Fleas, ticks, and other parasites aren’t just unpleasant and aggravating. These nasty creatures are hazardous to pets' health, too, and can even cause illness in humans. If your fur baby is not on a parasite preventive, the holiday season is a terrific time to give them the gift of better health and less itchy skin! Purchase products directly from us instead of ordering from an online retailer, and you will not have to worry about safety or effectiveness. 

Give the Gift of Health with a Wellness Exam

We understand that coming in for a physical exam probably does not seem like a great gift to your cat or dog. But whether they like it or not, bringing them in for routine care is the key to maintaining their health and happiness. Scheduling a wellness exam for your beloved pet is a loving gift and an outstanding way to end the year.

This holiday season, make your beloved pet’s health your top concern. Call now to schedule your pet's appointment.
