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. |
