Yearly exams are coming due, as well as vaccines. The ferrets got their rabies shots early last month, Rico got neutered last month, and Zeros got neutered yesterday.
So what’s next? All four cats get their exams on April 23rd, as well as Zeros getting his rabies shot. He finally can get his three-year shot, like the others have. On April 2nd, Cooper and Liberty will be going in for exams, anal gland expression, distemper shots, heartworm tests, plus Liberty will need her rabies shot. I will also order Revolution for all three dogs.
In the near future, I plan to take Rico in to get a microchip. Luckily, Cooper and Liberty already have chips. The cats will follow soon after.
Taking multiple pets in at once has pros and cons. It’s nice to only have one day to worry about per “group,” but it can be a hassle dealing with them all at once in an environment they aren’t fully comfortable with. The cats tend to be easier because they go in carriers. This will be Liberty’s first time at my vet and I’m curious how she will behave, especially while trying to control Cooper as well.
The good news is, after all the planning and financing, this will all soon be handled and the rest of the year is usually void of vet visits.
