Why Microchip Your Pet? Did you know 1 in 3 pets go missing in their lifetime? Chip Your Pet Month at Kimvet

Why Microchip Your Pet? Did you know 1 in 3 pets go missing in their lifetime? Chip Your Pet Month at Kimvet

This month at Kimvet, we celebrate Pet Microchipping Month. Why is it so important to microchip your furry companion?

#petsupplies #petcare #shoplocal #petlovers #petproducts #smallpets #animalcare

Did you know that 1 in 3 pets will go missing in their lifetime?

Without proper identification, many never find their way back home. Microchipping is a quick, painless, and permanent way to give your pet the best chance of being reunited with you if they ever get lost.
Why Microchip Your Pet?
Permanent ID – Unlike collars and tags, a microchip can’t fall off or be removed.
Fast & Safe – The procedure takes seconds and lasts a lifetime.
Greater Chance of Reunion – Vets and shelters scan lost pets for microchips, helping them return home.
Peace of Mind – Know your pet has extra protection if they ever go missing.

Book a Microchipping Appointment at Kimberley Vet Clinic! Our experienced team ensures a stress-free experience for your pet.

Microchipping is a simple and quick procedure that can make the difference between life and death for your pet. A microchip, which is the size of a grain of rice, is inserted under your animal’s skin and contains a unique identification number that can be scanned. This means that if your pet gets lost, any veterinarian or animal shelter can scan the chip and access your contact information, making it easier for them to return home. Additionally, in many places, microchipping is a legal requirement, and it is an effective way to prove ownership of your pet. So, if you haven’t done it yet, come to Kimvet and make sure your four-legged friend is protected!

Mini Tigers at Home - 5 Cat facts we bet you didn't know!

Mini Tigers at Home

Have you ever considered that your domestic cat shares an astonishing 95.6% of its genetic makeup with tigers? This close genetic relationship explains many of their instinctual behaviors, such as stalking, pouncing, and marking their territory, which mirror the actions of their wild relatives. Whether it’s the way they crouch before a leap or the territorial scent marking they engage in, these feline traits are a fascinating reminder of their wild ancestry.

Sweet? No Thanks!

Interestingly, cats are unable to taste sweetness, a trait that sets them apart from humans. Their taste buds have not evolved to appreciate sugary flavors, which means that while we might indulge in desserts, our feline friends have no interest in sweet treats. This unique aspect of their taste perception is a reflection of their carnivorous diet, which is primarily focused on protein rather than carbohydrates.

Night Vision Pros

While cats may struggle with nearsightedness, they possess remarkable peripheral and night vision capabilities that far exceed those of humans. This exceptional vision allows them to detect even the slightest movements in low-light conditions, making them adept hunters during dusk and dawn. Their eyes are specially adapted to gather more light, which is why they can navigate and thrive in the dark, showcasing their evolutionary prowess as nocturnal predators.

Climbing Up Is Easy, Climbing Down…Not So Much

Ascending trees is a breeze for cats, but descending can be quite the challenge! Due to the unique shape of their claws, which are designed to grip surfaces while climbing, felines are unable to navigate downwards headfirst. This means they often have to awkwardly backtrack their way down, making the descent a bit of a clumsy affair.

Jumping Champions

When it comes to jumping, cats are true champions! They possess the remarkable ability to leap as far as six times their own body length in one bound. This incredible agility allows them to land precisely where they intend, showcasing their impressive athleticism and precision in movement. No wonder they always land where they want.

CAT FIRST AID: CHOKING & CPR

CAT FIRST AID: CHOKING & CPR

As cat owners, ensuring the well-being of our furry friends is paramount. In emergencies such as choking, knowing how to respond can mean the difference between life and death.

Here's a step-by-step guide to help you manage choking incidents and perform CPR on your cat if necessary:

1. Clear the Airways

 The first and foremost step is to check and clear your cat’s airways:

 **Open the Cat’s Mouth**: Gently pull the tongue forward and inspect for any visible obstructions.

**Use Tweezers for Reachable Objects**: If something is easily reachable, use tweezers (not fingers!) to remove it.

**Avoid Sharp Objects**: Never try to remove sharp objects (like needles) or items lodged deep in the throat, as this may push them further down.

**Veterinary Assistance**: If the obstruction cannot be safely removed, immediately take your cat to the veterinarian.

2. The Heimlich Maneuver

If the airway remains blocked, follow these steps to help free it:

**Position the Cat**: Place your cat on your lap with its hind legs raised slightly.

**Thump between Shoulder Blades**: Gently but firmly thump between the shoulder blades to try to dislodge the object.

If this method fails, it’s time to perform the Heimlich maneuver:

**Locate the Ribcage**: Place your hands behind the ribcage.

**Apply Pressure**: Press gently but firmly on the abdomen 4-5 times.

**Check Again**: After several attempts, check if the object is dislodged.

If the cat is still not breathing or is unconscious, you must proceed immediately to CPR.

3. CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation)

Before starting CPR, remember to ensure that the airway is clear.

 

**Lay the Cat on Its Side**: Start by positioning your cat on its side.

**Locate the Heart**: Find the heart, which is located just behind the elbow on the chest.

**Check for a Pulse**: If no pulse is detected, begin compressions:

**Chest Compressions**: Using the flat of your hand, gently squeeze the chest.

**Rescue Breaths**: Give four chest compressions followed by two rescue breaths:

– Cover the cat’s nose with your mouth.

– Keep the mouth closed and gently blow into the nose.

**IMPORTANT**: CALL A VETERINARIAN IMMEDIATELY after performing CPR or if you suspect your cat is in distress!
