Pet Dental Discounts This Month

Many veterinarians offer discounts on pet dentals during the month of February. And it’s not just because it’s the season of love! February is also National Pet Dental Health Month.
Call your vet’s office to see if they’re offering discounts this month. If you don’t believe me, just Google “vets offering pet dental discounts in February” and you’ll see…
It’s important for your kitty to receive an oral exam each year during check-up time. Damage can occur from dental disease before you ever notice there’s a problem.
If your cat is showing any of these symptoms, an oral exam may be overdue:
• Bad breath
• Swollen or receding gums
• Tartar build up or yellowing teeth
• Refusal to eat dry food or other change in eating habits
• Pawing at the mouth or rubbing mouth along floor or other objects
• Drooling, especially if tinged with blood
According to the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA), poor dental health in pets may lead to kidney, liver or heart disease.
Please take advantage of the savings offered by many vets this month and get those kitty teeth cleaned if necessary.

Do you have any ideas since it is now May, not February. I brought two of my three dogs in and they need almost $2ooo worth of work done. I am on disability and cannot afford this. Any ideas? Thanks
