If you have the unfortunate experience of having to put a pet down, find a vet that will make a house call. Don’t let your pet’s last moments be somewhere they are afraid of. (Lap Of Love)
Losing a beloved pet is one of the most heartbreaking experiences we go through. They are not just animalsโthey are companions, family members, a source of unconditional love. And when the time comes to say goodbye, the environment in which that farewell happens matters more than we often realize. Many pets experience stress and fear at the vet’s officeโthe unfamiliar smells, the sterile exam table, the anxiety of past visits. In their final moments, the last thing they should feel is fear.
You should check everywhere on your body every once in awhile to see if you have a new mole or a body mark bigger than an eraser at the top of a pencil.
If you see you have a new mole or body mark on your body that wasn’t there before, go to the doctor because it could be skin cancer.
The ABCDE rule which signals for signs of melanoma (skin cancer) A= ASYMMETRY: if 2 half’s look different it could be skin cancer B= BORDER: a round smooth border of the mole or skin mark is a good sign, but if it has a unnatural border, get it checked out. C= COLOR: one color is good, but multiple colors could be a sign of skin cancer. D= DIAMETER: if once again, it’s bigger than a pencil erasers, it could be a sign of skin cancer. E= EVOLUTION: if it has change in size, color, or shape, get it checked out.
