Congratulations on your new addition! A new kitten is an exciting, busy, and frankly, adorable time! We want to make sure you have everything you need to get your kitten off to the best start. From preventative health care like diet, vaccines, heartworm, flea and tick prevention, to litterbox training, and well-adjusted cats, we have great advice to share!
We look forward to partnering with you to make your new family member as healthy and happy as possible. Click on the links below for our basic recommendations and guidelines. Every pet is different, so we’ll be discussing these things with you during routine visits, and you can always reach out to our veterinary team with additional questions or concerns! We’re here to help, and we can’t wait to see your new pup grow.
