Q & A: Why Does My Cat Lick Me?

THE BREGMAN VETERINARY GROUP
www.BregmanVetGroup.com

Dogs aren't the only pets that are prone to licking our faces.  You might find that your kitten licks your arm, toes, or even your hair!  

Why Do Cats Lick You?
  • You're Part of the Family - Cats tend to lick their kittens with a tongue bath.  If your cat is licking you, he or she might consider you to be part of the family - offering nurturing care by cleaning you.
  • They're Marking Territory - Licking is also a way to establish territory.  This is a way for your cat to mark with his or her scent.  Mother cats lick their kittens to establish ownership.  Licking is a form of creating this type of bond.
  • They Can't Pet You - You like to pet your cat, but your cat can't pet you.  Instead, they might lick you to show affection.
  • They're Stressed - If your kitten is anxious, they might begin to lick you.  Try to cuddle and pet your cat to reduce their stress levels.  Showing a little affection should ease the stress.
If you have any questions about your cat's behavior -- like why they might be licking you -- or their health, contact one of our offices.

Our cat-friendly hospitals are designed to provide your furry friend with a comfortable and relaxing veterinary visit.  Contact one of our offices below to set up an appointment for your cat:

What Causes a Smelly Pet?

THE BREGMAN VETERINARY GROUP
www.BregmanVetGroup.com

We love our pets, but any pet owner knows that despite best efforts to keep them clean - sometimes our furry friends can stink!  

There are a few reasons why your pet may smell a little funky.  Here are a few possible causes and what you can do to help them smell their best.

Possible Causes:

They Have An Ear Infection - Ear infections are common in dogs and cats.  Whether they are bacterial or fungal, ear infections are one of the biggest culprits of a smelly pet.  If your pet has an ear infection, you may notice that they shake their head in an effort to find relief.  If you think that your pet is suffering from an ear infection, schedule a visit at one of our practice and we can provide your pet with the appropriate medication for the type of infection that they have.

They Have a Dental Disease - While we brush our teeth every day, our pets don't.  That's why pets are so prone to dental diseases.  If you notice that your pet has bad breath, this is a sign that tartar is building up on their teeth, causing an infection.  Annual dental cleanings and regular tooth brushing habits at home will help keep your pet's mouth healthy.

They Have a Skin Problem - Dogs and cats who suffer from allergies are prone to chronic skin infections.  This can lead to greasy coats and crusty skin - both of which can cause your pet to smell.  If you know that your pet is suffering from a skin condition, we can provide antibiotics and antifungals to help keep your pet's fur smelling fresh.

They're Suffering from Diarrea - Of course, excessive gas and diarrhea can be smelly.  This is often a sign of an underlying gastrointestinal disease.  Your pet may also express their anal sac (either accidentally or on purpose).  If your pet's anal sacs are expressed frequently, it's time to schedule a visit to see what's wrong.

Do you have any questions about why your pet may be smelling stinky?  

Visit one of our veterinary practices below and we can help you figure out how to get your pet to smell their best (and stay healthy in the process).

Keep Your Pet From Overeating During the Holidays

THE BREGMAN VETERINARY GROUP
www.BregmanVetGroup.com

Eating healthy is tough during most of the year - but especially during the holidays!  Your pets are no different.  These tips will help you keep your pets fit and healthy through the holiday season.

How to Avoid Holiday Weight Gain:

  • Go For A Walk -Take frequent walks with your pet through the holiday season.  Not only is this a great way to get outside and some fresh air, but it will help your pet burn a few extra calories.
  • Play a Game - Play a game of catch with your dog or user a laser pointer to entertain your cat.  These activities add up each day and are a great way to stay in shape.
  • Read Labels - There are plenty of pet-friendly treats out there, but be sure to read the calories.  Some dog or cat cookies might look festive but will be a significant amount of calories.  Be sure to make sure that if you do feed your pet a treat, that you adjust their daily calorie intake accordingly.
  • Avoid Table Scraps - It's tempting to slip your dog a few table scraps, especially during holiday dinners.  However, you'll want to make sure that these foods are safe for your pets.  If you do end up sharing some holiday foods, keep the portions small.

If you are having trouble with your pet's weight gain, contact one of our offices.  We can help you set up a healthy diet plan that gets your pet back on the right track.

Can Your Pet Indulge in Thanksgiving Food Scraps?

THE BREGMAN VETERINARY GROUP
www.BregmanVetGroup.com

While we love to share and celebrate with our pets during the holidays, it's important to remember that certain foods that are good for us can actually be dangerous to our pets.  However, if you know what you can and cannot feed your pet, certain Thanksgiving foods can be healthy for your pets in small quantities.

Just remember that abrupt changes in diet can cause an upset stomach.  Be sure to keep an eye on your pet and make sure that they don't over-indulge.


Food Scraps You CAN Feed Your Pets:

  • Turkey - In small amounts, turkey can be OK.  Just be sure that the meat is lean, light meat that is bone-free.  Dark meat is too greasy for your pets and bones can get lodged in their GI track.
  • Mashed Potatoes - Plain mashed potatoes (with minimal fat and salt) can be OK for your pet.  However, potatoes with butter and heavy cream can be too fattening for your pets.  Fatty foods can upset their stomach and even be life threatening.
  • Green Beans - Plain, unsalted green beans can be a nutritious holiday treat for your pets.  However, avoid offering your pets green beans that are mixed with other ingredients (i.e. avoid green been casseroles).
  • Loose Corn - If you are serving unbuttered corn, this can be a healthy treat for your dog.  However, avoid corn on the cob.  Small pieces can cause an obstruction in your dog's digestive system.
  • Pumpkin - Pumpkin can actually have several health benefits for your pets.  If you can find unsweetened, natural pumpkin, this can be a great holiday treat for your pet.  Just be sure to avoid pumpkin pie fillings, as they are often high in sugar.

Food Scraps You CAN'T Feed Your Pets
  • Turkey Gravy - Gravy is often made from stock, pepper and seasoning.  While it may be a delicious addition to your Thanksgiving turkey, it is too fatty for your pets.
  • Stuffing -  Stuffing is often full of fat, butter and ingredients (like onions and garlic) that are very harmful to pets.  As a general rule of thumb, it's best not to offer your pets stuffing.
  • Candied Yams - Sweet and buttery yams are too sugary and fattening for pets.
  • Chocolate - Chocolate can cause high heart rates in dogs, among other problems.  Avoid feeding your pet anything your are baking with chocolate.
  • Alcohol - It may seem obvious, but you should keep alcohol out of reach of your pets.  Even small amounts of alcohol can be dangerous.
If you have any questions about your cat's odd behaviors, contact our office!  Feel free to contact any of our Brooklyn or Long Island offices for more information.

How to Safely Remove Ticks

THE BREGMAN VETERINARY GROUP
www.BregmanVetGroup.com

Do you love spending time outdoors with your pets?  Don't forget to check them for ticks!  

Pet owners should check their pets for ticks daily, especially after spending time outdoors.  If you do find a tick on your dog or cat, don't panic!  These tips will help you get rid of the tick quickly and safely at home.

How to Remove Ticks:
  1. Keep Your Pet Calm- Before you remove the tick, you want to make sure that your pet feels calm and comfortable.
  2. Find a Pair of Tweezers- Fine tipped tweezers are the most effective at removing ticks. 
  3. Grasp the Tick - Grasp the tick with the tweezers as close to the surface of your pet's skin as possible.  Then, pull upward with steady, even pressure.  Try to avoid twisting or jerking motions - this can make it difficult to remove the entire tick.  If the tick does break off, remove the rest with clean tweezers.
  4. Clean the Area - After the tick has been removed, clean the area with soap and water or rubbing alcohol.
If you have any questions about how to prevent or remove ticks this summer, contact our office!  Our experienced veterinarians will help make sure that ticks are removed safely.  We even offer preventative treatments that help keep your pet parasite-free.

Tick Prevention Tips for Lyme Disease Awareness Month!

THE BREGMAN VETERINARY GROUP
www.BregmanVetGroup.com

It's Lyme Disease Awareness Month!  This May, we want to remind pet owners to take precautions against Lyme Disease for both yourself and your pets.  As you start to spend more time outdoors, it's important to keep these safety tips in mind..  

Here are a few tips to help you prevent Lyme Disease this spring and summer.

Lyme Disease Prevention:

  • Be Careful on Walks - If you visit the park with your pet, be conscious of heavily wooded areas or places with tall grass.  These areas are popular places for ticks to hide on humid days.  Keep your dog on a leash and keep them out of areas that are heavily populated by ticks.
  • Groom Your Pet - Groom your dog daily and check for ticks - especially after spending time outdoors.  This will help keep your dog happy and healthy, while also preventing Lyme Disease.
  • Use Safe Tick Repellent - There are many spot-on topical products, sprays and collars that kill and repel ticks.  If you're not sure what tick repellent is best for your pet, contact our office!
  • Vaccinate Your Pet - There are vaccines available to help protect your pet against Lyme Disease.  These annual vaccinations are an affordable way to protect your pet against the disease.  Our veterinarians can help you determine if it's the right choice for your dog.

If you do notice a tick on your pet, don't panic!  Read more about Lyme Disease prevention and how you can keep ticks away from your pets here.

How to Create a Pet-Friendly Garden

THE BREGMAN VETERINARY GROUP
www.BregmanVetGroup.com

Have you started to think about your spring garden?  Before you head out to buy your flowers, shrubs and vegetable seeds, here are a few tips to help make your garden pet-friendly!

Pet-Friendly Gardening Tips:

  • Avoid Toxic Plants - Certain plants might appear to be beautiful, but they can be toxic to your furry friends.  Azaleas, Ivy, and many types of Lilies are toxic to both cats and dogs.  Check to make sure your garden plans don't include any dangerous plants before you head outdoors.
  • Choose Sturdy Plants - Plant sturdy perennial grasses or dense edging plants as a buffer zone between your dogs' play area and your flower garden!
  • Be Conscious of Your Mulch - Choose your mulch carefully.  Certain types of mulch can be toxic to pets if ingested.  Choose root mulch, wood bark or gravel that is non toxic and easier on tiny paws.
  • Fence in Your Garden - Keep your pets and your garden safe by putting a fence around your garden.  Then, your pets will be able to roam free and you don't have to worry about them getting into your vegetable garden!

Today is World Spay Day!

THE BREGMAN VETERINARY GROUP
www.BregmanVetGroup.com

It's World Spay Day!  Today we would like to emphasize the importance of spaying and neutering your pet, not just for their health, but also for the community.  Spaying and neutering plays an important role in preventing unwanted liters and keeping animals happy and healthy!

Benefits of Spaying and Neutering:

  • Increased Lifespan - Spaying and neutering helps prevent a number of pet health issues, including uterine infections, breast cancer, and testicular cancer.  
  • Improved Behavior - Pets that are spayed and neutered are  more likely to be better behaved.  They are less likely to spend time marking their territory and more likely to spend more time with you.
  • Better the Community - Stray animals are a problem in New York and throughout the world.  Spaying an neutering your pets helps play a huge role in reducing the number of animals left on the streets.

You can make a big difference by participating in World Spay Day!  Contact one of our offices to learn more about how spaying and neutering can benefit your pet.

Why Does Your Dog have Bad Breath?

THE BREGMAN VETERINARY GROUP
www.BregmanVetGroup.com

Does your pet have bad breath?  While common, bad breath is often a sign that your pet needs better dental care.  Here are a few of the most common reason why your pet has bad breath.

Reasons for Bad Breath:
  • Periodontal Disease - Just like us, pets are prone to periodontal disease.  After they are three year old, 80% of dogs and cats begin to show signs of periodontal disease.  This can cause bad breath as bacteria and plaque build.
  • Teething - Puppies and kittens both have bad breath when they are teething.  Fortunately, this should only last a few months.
  • Oral Disease - Gum inflammation, oral masses, and other problems with the gums can create crevices where bacteria can get stuck and grow.
The best way to prevent bad breath and keep your pet's teeth beautiful and healthy is with regular brushing.  We recommend training your pet early on so that they become used to the habit and bringing them into our practice for annual teeth cleanings.  This will help make sure that their teeth stay healthy and that you avoid smelly breath.

Check out this article for more information on why your pet is suffering from bad breath and what you can do to alleviate the issue.  You can also contact our office with any questions you may have!

Tooth Brushing Tips to Help Keep Your Pet's Teeth Clean

THE BREGMAN VETERINARY GROUP
www.BregmanVetGroup.com

When was the last time you took a look at your pet's teeth?  Although many pet owners don't realize it, dental health care is important for cats and dogs, too!  Since February is Pet's Dental Health Month, here are a few tooth brushing tips to help keep your pet's healthy.

Tooth Brushing Tips:

  • Develop a Cleaning Routine - If you can, try to get your pet used to teeth cleaning at a young age.  The American Veterinary Medical Association recommends getting cats used to the process when they're kittens by using a finger cot or gauze, along with toothpaste.  You can help your dog adjust by gently cupping their muzzle and eventually lifting the lips.  Reward them at the end of the session with a treat!
  • Use Special Toothpaste - Fluoride can be harmful if ingested by your pet.  Use a toothpaste that is specifically designed for your pet.
  • Stimulate the Gums - Inflammed gums are the first sign of tooth decay.  Try to massage your pets gums to accelerate healing and prevent gum problems further on.  The gums should be pink and healthy, not red or irritated.
  • Schedule a Checkup - A dental checkup is an important part of your annual vet visit.  Just like us, your cats and dogs can suffer from periodontal disease and tooth decay if their teeth are left unchecked.
Check out this article for more tooth brushing tips or contact our office.  Our experienced vets can help make sure that your pet's teeth are beautiful and healthy.  Visit our website to learn more.

Caring For Your Pets' Paws in the Winter

THE BREGMAN VETERINARY GROUP
www.BregmanVetGroup.com

It's important to keep your paw's protected on snowy winter days.  While we appreciate when the roads and sidewalks are salted and sanded, deicing products can hurt your pet's feet.  Here are a few tips to help keep your pet safe in the snow.

Paw Care Tips:

  • Trim Long Hair - Keep the hair around your dog's paws trimmed in order to limit the clinging of ice, salt crystals and de-icing chemicals.  These can dry out your pet's skin if they are exposed for an extended period of time.
  • Use Booties - They may look silly, but if your pet is comfortable with wearing booties, they can help minimize contact with painful salt crystals and anti-freeze agents.  They can also help keep sand and salt from irritating your pet's paws.
  • Bring a Towel - Wipe your pet's feet to remove ice, snow and and chemicals after each walk.  Check for cracks in the paw pads and irritation.  Wiping down the paws will also keep your pet from licking and ingesting deicing salts.
  • Minimize Contact - If you notice that the sidewalk has chemicals on it, let your pet walk in the snow or in an area that won't irritate their paws.  
Read more about how to keep your pet's paws protected in the snow here and here.

THE BREGMAN VETERINARY GROUP
www.BregmanVetGroup.com


Have you thought about your New Year's resolutions?  There is no better time to commit to improving your pet care than the new year.  Here are a few resolutions that will help keep your pet healthy through 2015!

Resolutions for Pets:

  • Measure Pet Food - It's easy to overfeed your pets.  Use an 8-ounce measuring cup to help make sure that your pet isn't taking in more calories than they need.
  • Try a New Activity - Incorporate your pet into your exercise routine.  This it's a great way to bond and its a great way to make sure that you and your pet stay healthy.
  • Visit the Vet - Yearly examinations are an important part of making sure that your pet is happy and healthy year-round.  During a visit, we can help address any medical conditions early on.
  • Groom Your Pet - Brushing your pet doesn't just help them look nice.  It also removes excess fur from the coat and distributes healthy oils from the skin to the fur. 
  • Brush Their Teeth - Does your pet have smelly breath?  Regular cleanings are a great way to keep your pet's teeth in good shape long into their senior years.  Use a small pet-friendly toothbrush to prevent plaque buildup.

Check out this article for more ideas for pet resolutions!

Can Your Pets Eat Thanksgiving Leftovers?

 THE BREGMAN VETERINARY GROUP
www.BregmanVetGroup.com


Is your home full of Thanksgiving leftovers?  Here are a few tips to help you determine what you should and shouldn't be sharing with your pet!

Thanksgiving Leftovers:
  • Turkey - Turkey can be a great lean protein to share with your pet.  Just make sure that you remove any excess skin or fat.  Never feed your pet anything with a bone.
  • Mashed Potatoes - As long as your potatoes don't contain cheese, sour cream, butter, onions, or gravy, they can be a great vegetable to share with your pet!  
  • Cranberry Sauce - It's ok for pets to eat cranberry sauce, just keep an eye on the amount of sugar in it.  It's safe to give your pets a very small serving.
  • Macaroni and Cheese - If you know that your pet can handle dairy, it safe to share this leftover.  However, if you aren't sure how your pet handles dairy, just give them plain macaroni.  Pets can develop lactose intolerance as they age.
  • Green Beans - Fresh vegetables are a great addition to your pet's diet.
While these foods are safe for your pet to eat, you want to be careful when making any changes to your pet's diet.  Giving your pet too many leftovers may cause an upset stomach or cause weight gain.  If you have any questions about what your pet can or cannot eat, contact our office for more information.

Halloween Safety Hazards for Pets

 THE BREGMAN VETERINARY GROUP
www.BregmanVetGroup.com

Are you ready to celebrate Halloween?  Celebrate safely by avoiding these top pet safety hazards!

Halloween Hazards:

  • Candy Wrappers - Be sure to dispose of candy wrappers after you eat your sweets.  Pets may unknowingly ingest wrappers.  Keep an eye on your pets while eating candy this Halloween.  Candy and candy wrappers are the number one reason pets take an emergency trip to the vet!
  • Chocolate - Chocolate contains ingredients that can harm your pet.  Chocolate poisoning signs include vomiting, diarrhea, hyperactivity, tremors, seizures, and a racing heart.  If your pet exhibits any of these signs, contact our office immediately.
  • Pumpkins - This festive decoration is relatively nontoxic, but if your pet does chew on a carved pumpkin, they may have an upset stomach.  Jack-o-lanterns pose an additional threat.  Keep curious kittens and puppies away from lit candle flames.
  • Costumes - Have your pet try on the costume first.  Check to make sure that they can move easily, including wagging their tail!  You should also keep allergies in mind.  If you notice your pet starts scratching or is unhappy, take the costume off.
  • Open Doors - Chances are the door will be opening and closing a lot as trick-or-treaters come to your home.  Make sure your pets are in a safe place where they can't dart outside into the dark.

Check out this article for more information on how to avoid these Halloween hazards and celebrate safely with your pets.  As always, you can contact our office if you have any questions about your pet's health!
