Pediatric Care
At Carolina Place Animal Hospital, we love puppies and kittens, and we want to provide them with the best of neonatal and pediatric care! Setting your furry family member up for a life of success starts with appropriate care early on. We recommend having a full physical examination performed as soon as you bring your little one home to ensure that your new pet is healthy.
In order to protect your family and your new family member, we follow preventive care and vaccination guidelines set forth by the American Animal Hospital Association. Younger animals are especially susceptible to infectious diseases, therefore we use the most up to date vaccine protocol to make sure they are protected. Puppies and kittens are also very prone to intestinal parasites, therefore we recommend a comprehensive fecal test, and may prescribe dewormers to help treat for these parasites.
For sick neonates, we offer a full-service hospital for diagnostics and supportive medical or surgical care.
We can additionally make specific recommendations regarding diet and training for your pet, if indicated We can also talk to you about puppy- or kitten-proofing your home, and can provide advice about introducing the little one to other animals in the household. Whether this is your first pet or your 50th, we want to provide you both with the tools you need for a long, happy, healthy lifetime of love!
