If you're looking for some last-minute gift ideas for your furry family member, keep reading.

Microchipping 

Did you know that roughly 10 million pets get lost in the United States every year? Getting your furry friend microchipped significantly improves the chances of being reunited with them if tragedy strikes your family. The veterinarians at VetCheck Pet Urgent Care Center can chip your cat or dog in just a few seconds, and this non-surgical procedure provides lifetime peace of mind for you and protection for your four-legged family member.

Stuff Their Stocking with Parasite Preventives

If you think parasites are just a nuisance, you better think again. These awful critters are hazardous to pets' health, as well. They could even make your human family members sick. If you currently don't have your canine companion or feline friend on a trusted parasite preventive, now is an excellent opportunity to get them on the right track. Choose products directly from us instead of going to the grocery store, and you will not have to stress about safety or effectiveness. 

Give the Gift of Health with a Wellness Exam

We understand that coming in for a wellness exam may not sound like a great present to your pet. But whether they like it or not, bringing them in for routine care is the key to maintaining their health and happiness. Scheduling an appointment for your furry friend is an excellent way to end the year with a clean bill of health and start 2022 off on the right paw!
