Caring for Older Pets
When you love your pets, you always want them to have the best of everything. If you live in the San Jose area and wonder, "Where is an animal hospital near me?" you'll find one at Silicon Valley Pet Clinic. We provide compassionate veterinary care for emergency and routine exams for everyday animal health concerns. Our experienced veterinarians and friendly staff will go out of their way to make you and your pet feel safe and comfortable.
Senior Pet Care
We have a lot of experience and insight into caring for older pets. As our pets age, they are more at risk for diseases and infections and need extra care and comfort. We'll provide tips on how to safety-proof your home for your elderly pet. For example, if you have rugs on your floor, attach them to the floor with nonskid carpet runners.
If your older pet has tender paws, look for paw grips to protect their paws and give them a better grip for walking through your home. Use a pet gate to keep them out of rooms they shouldn't enter. To ensure they have everything they need, keep their food, water, and pet bed nearby. You can attach double-sided tape to the bottom of the pet food bowls to make sure they stay in place.
Learn About Your Pet
When you come into our offices at Silicon Valley Pet Clinic, your pet will receive a complete examination. Before you go to the office, find a record of your pet's vaccinations so they can be included in your pet's health record. At the end of the visit, your veterinarian will meet with you and share any concerns about your pet's health. They can also advise you on whether to change your pet's feeding routine.
