Puppy & Kitten Care in Cary
Professional care and guidance for your new pet’s first year.
The Right Start for
Your Pet’s Health
Welcoming a new puppy or kitten into your home is an exciting time filled with joy and curiosity. At Green Level Animal Hospital, we are here to help you navigate your new pet’s health and wellness during their first year of life. Our puppy and kitten care at Green Level Animal Hospital gives your pet the right start to grow into a healthy, happy companion. From their first veterinary visit to ongoing health care, our veterinarians will guide you every step of the way.
Bringing your pet to their first veterinarian exam?
Your puppy or kitten’s first visit to the vet is crucial in setting the foundation for their long-term health. We recommend bringing your new pet in within the first few days of bringing them home. During this visit, our veterinary staff will perform a thorough physical examination to assess your pet’s overall health. Depending on their age and medical history, we may also provide their first round of vaccinations and deworming treatments and discuss parasite protection to keep them safe from common threats like fleas, ticks, and intestinal worms. Diagnostics, such as a fecal test to check for worms, may be suggested to check for any medical issues that cannot be discovered through a physical exam alone.
This first appointment is also a great time to discuss additional services, such as microchipping for permanent identification and basic grooming needs like nail trims. We want to make sure that your new pet is healthy and well cared for from the very beginning.
What to expect during a puppy or kitten’s first year of vet care.
If you are a new pet owner, you may not know what to expect during your puppy or kitten’s first year. Our veterinarians and support staff can help with that. We will review a puppy or kitten vaccination schedule based on the health and lifestyle of your pet. Vaccine boosters are spread out over several visits to build immunity and protect your pet during this vulnerable time. We will also discuss the appropriate timing for spaying or neutering your pet based on their breed and size. Dental care should be integrated into everyday life for both puppies and kittens, so we will go over how to start at-home dental care and when to begin professional teeth cleanings. Establishing good dental habits early will help prevent dental diseases as your pet grows.
We have expert advice for growing puppies and kittens.
Raising a puppy or kitten comes with plenty of questions.
During an appointment, our veterinary staff is always available to provide guidance on important topics like diet, behavior, and training. Whether you need advice on finding the right food for your growing pet, managing common behavioral challenges like house training, or addressing separation anxiety, please ask us. Our goal is to help you make informed decisions about your pet’s care so they grow into a well-rounded, healthy adult. We encourage you to reach out to us for an appointment whenever you have concerns about your puppy or kitten’s health and development.
