New Kitten and Puppy Care Tips

It is important to visit your local animal hospital or veterinarian sooner rather than later for your new pet's initial checkup, vaccination plan, and other health concerns. However, there are also plenty of things you can do at home as well to help bring your puppy or kitten into their new world. That begins with safety, like puppy or kitten-proofing your home.

Making Sure Your Home Is Ready

Getting your home ready may mean keeping any electrical cord or dangerous object out of reach. It can include looking at your houseplant collection, as some houseplants are toxic to animals, and even building a safe play area for your pet during his first few weeks at home.

There are quite a few steps to caring for a new puppy or kitten. The good news is that you don’t have to do it alone. We at Fairway Knolls Animal Hospital are here to help.
