Puppy or Kittens First Exam


If you're a new parent to a beautiful puppy or kitten, one of the first things you should do is schedule a pet car wellness exam! Our veterinarian at Central Virginia Veterinary Clinic in Louisa, VA, is here to assist your new furry friends and help you find the best care for them. Below is everything you need to know about what to expect during your new puppy and kitten exam!

Preventative Care for Your Puppy or Kitten

The first thing our veterinarian will do during your pet care exam is review some preventative care options. This exam will likely include discussing vaccinations and when they should be administered and talking about spaying or neutering your new pet. Early preventive care is essential, as it can help reduce your pet’s risk of developing severe health problems later in life.

Weight Check and Nutritional Counseling

During your wellness exam, our veterinarian will also weigh your pet and see if they are at a healthy weight. If they are not, we can provide nutritional counseling to help them on track. It's essential to keep your pet at a healthy weight to reduce the risk of them developing obesity or other health problems. Health nutrition is also vital for puppies and kittens since they grow rapidly.

Parasite Prevention

Another essential part of your pet's wellness exam will be checking for parasites. This exam is crucial for puppies and kittens, as they are more susceptible to getting sick from parasites than adult dogs and cats. Our veterinarian will check your pet for fleas, ticks, worms, and will provide you with information on how to prevent these parasites from infecting your pet in the future.
