Perfect Holiday Gift Ideas for Pets

Christmas is almost here! Are you ready? Before the big day arrives, don't forget to get something special for your dog or cat. The veterinarians at ABC Veterinary Clinic of Lewisville want all dogs and cats to enjoy a safe and happy holiday season, so we made the decision 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 Lewisville in the upcoming weeks. Here are a few unique last-minute gift ideas for pets.

Get a Microchip

Did you know that roughly 10 million companion animals disappear yearly in the United States? Getting your furry friend microchipped significantly increases the chances of locating them if tragedy strikes your family. Having an animal microchipped is quick and easy, and it is a gift that gives your fur baby a form of permanent identification that lasts their entire life. 

Get Serious About Parasite Prevention

If you think fleas, ticks, and other parasites are just an annoyance, you couldn't be more wrong. These awful critters are detrimental to pets' health, too, and could even cause illness in humans. If you don't have your cat or dog on an effective parasite preventive, the holiday season is an excellent time to get them started. Purchase products directly from us instead of going to the grocery store, and you will never have to stress about safety or effectiveness. 

Give the Gift of Health with a Wellness Exam

We understand that coming in for a checkup probably does not sound like an excellent gift to your cat or dog. However, like humans, dogs and cats require routine care. If you want to end 2021 with a clean bill of health for your dog or cat and start 2022 off on the right paw, scheduling a wellness exam is an excellent option. 

This holiday season, give your precious pet the gift of good health. Reach out to us now to book an appointment.
