Hot Weather Tips for Pets

A visit to the veterinarian for a summer checkup for pets is a must to check for heartworm (cats can get heartworm, too) and to ask for a safe flea and tick control program. If your pet isn’t micro-chipped, now is the time. Pets can be escape artists, especially in summer with more people coming and going.

Both cats and dogs need to be registered in Hays and wear their tags. The collar should be loose enough to slip two fingers  between the collar and neck. Cats should have a breakaway collar.

If your pet isn’t spayed or neutered, get ‘er done. You will have a happier, healthier pet who is less apt to roam. And you will prevent pet overpopulation.

A Prayer for Animals


The prayer below is one of several versions attributed to Dr. Albert Schweitzer.

Hear our humble prayer, O God, for our friends, the animals, especially for animals who are suffering; for any that are lost or deserted or frightened or hungry. We entreat for them all Thy mercy and pity, and for those who deal with them we ask a heart of compassion and gentle hands and kindly words. Make us, ourselves, to be true friends to animals and so to share the blessings of the merciful.
