Identifying when your furry friend is in pain๐Ÿ•โ€๐Ÿฆบ๐Ÿˆ

Hamilton Small Animal Veterinary Centre

Sometimes itโ€™s hard to tell if your pet is in pain, dogs and cats feel pain much like we do but tend to show it in different ways. ๐Ÿ•๐Ÿฉ๐Ÿ’•

Cats in particular tend to hide their pain, this is a natural survival mechanism. So itโ€™s important to look out for signs that theyโ€™re unwell or in discomfort. The sooner you can determine there is an issue, the sooner you can seek help, thus keeping minor problems from turning into major ones.โค๏ธ

Take a look at the chart below and use as a guideline only to determine how your companion pet is feeling.

If you have any concerns and just require some advice or you need to make an appointment to see one of our vet team, then give us a call on 07 8492963.โ˜Ž๏ธโ˜บ๏ธ
