Understanding the Importance of Pet Fecal Analysis
Pets, being an integral part of our lives, deserve comprehensive healthcare to ensure their well-being. One crucial aspect of pet health often overlooked is fecal analysis. At Moreland Veterinary Hospital in Portland, OR, we recognize the significance of this service in maintaining your furry friend’s health.
When is it Necessary to Take Your Pet for Fecal Analysis?
- Changes in Behavior or Appetite: If you notice any sudden changes in your pet’s behavior, such as lethargy, excessive grooming, or changes in appetite, a fecal analysis can help identify underlying health issues.
- Recent Exposure to Other Animals: If your pet has been in contact with other animals or environments where parasites are prevalent, it is advisable to undergo a fecal analysis.
- Routine Health Check-ups: Incorporating fecal analysis into your pet’s routine health check-ups ensures comprehensive healthcare and early detection.
