🐾 May is “Check the Chip” Month! 🐾

Did you know that even microchipped pets can have trouble getting home if their contact information isn’t up to date? A microchip only works if the information connected to it is current!

This month, we’re encouraging all pet parents to stop by for a quick and free microchip scan to:
✔️ Make sure your pet’s chip is working properly
✔️ Verify the chip number
✔️ Confirm your contact information is current

If you’ve recently moved, changed phone numbers, or adopted a pet, now is the perfect time to check! It only takes a few minutes and could make all the difference in helping your furry family member find their way home. 🐶🐱❤️

Stop by anytime during May for your pet’s quick chip check and say hello!

Even indoor cats aren’t completely protected from parasites 🐱

Mosquitoes can easily make their way inside your home—putting indoor cats at risk for heartworm disease. Fleas and ticks are expert hitchhikers, too. They can come in on your clothing, shoes, or even on your dog and quickly make themselves at home.

The truth is, indoor doesn’t mean risk-free.

Keeping your cat on year-round parasite prevention helps protect them from:
• Heartworms (spread by mosquitoes)
• Fleas and ticks (that can sneak in unnoticed)
• Intestinal parasites

📍 Stop by your favorite Bluebonnet location or give us a call to keep your cat protected year-round!
