Heartworm Prevention: An Important Part of Feline Health Care

Many cat owners are surprised to learn that heartworm disease can affect cats too, even those that live exclusively indoors.

🐱 1 in 5 cats show evidence of heartworm exposure or infection
🏠 25% of heartworm-positive cats are reported as indoor-only
🦟 Mosquitoes can enter homes and expose indoor cats to heartworms
⚠️ There is currently no approved treatment to eliminate adult heartworms in cats, making prevention the best defense

At Lititz Veterinary Clinic, we recommend discussing your cat’s individual risk and prevention options during their wellness visits. A simple conversation today can help protect your feline friend for years to come.

📞 Give us a call to schedule a heartworm test or to learn more about heartworm prevention for your cat.

Tiny paws, big milestones…Sweet Izzy visited us for her kitten wellness appointment and received her first FVRCP vaccine, deworming treatment, and FeLV/FIV & heartworm testing! These early visits are an important part of keeping kittens healthy as they grow.

The FVRCP vaccine helps protect against common and potentially serious feline viruses, while routine deworming and testing help us catch and prevent parasites and infectious diseases early on. Preventive care starts young, and Izzy is already off to a great start!

It’s National Rescue Dog Day and the numbers behind it matter more than ever.

Every year, about 2.8 million dogs enter U.S. shelters, and while roughly 2 million are adopted, thousands are still waiting for a home. In total, over 5.8 million cats and dogs enter shelters annually, with around 4.2 million finding homes, a reminder of both the progress and the continued need.

What you can do:
• Adopt when you’re ready, rescues come in all ages, sizes, and personalities
• Consider fostering to help free up space in shelters
• Make sure your pets are spayed/neutered to help reduce overpopulation
• Share adoptable dogs in your community, it truly makes a difference

Rescue dogs aren’t “less than” they’re just waiting for someone to give them a chance.

If you’ve checked in at Lititz Vet, chances are Stewart has already inspected you from the front desk…today our favorite receptionist is celebrating his birthday!
