If your dog or cat appears lethargic, is vomiting, has diarrhoea, changes in appetite, or any unusual behaviour, contact your vet as soon as possible. You can also check our Blog section to help identify potential causes.

Warning signs of urinary or kidney problems may include increased or decreased urination, straining or discomfort while urinating, blood in the urine, changes in thirst or appetite, lethargy or unusual tiredness, vomiting or nausea, and behavioural changes such as restlessness or hiding.

Symptoms may include frequent urination, pain, blood in the urine, or changes in appetite. Seek veterinary attention immediately and check our articles on renal and urinary health for preventive measures.

It depends on age, weight, breed, and health condition. Check our feeding section for nutrition guides and special diets for renal or kidney issues.

Your veterinarian can recommend tailored health plans to support your pet’s urinary and kidney health. These may include regular check-ups to monitor kidney function, vaccinations, deworming, dental care, and specific assessments for urinary tract or renal conditions. Consult your vet to choose the most appropriate plan for your dog or cat.

Keep your veterinarian’s and local clinics’ contact numbers easily accessible at all times. If your pet shows serious symptoms such as difficulty breathing, seizures, heavy bleeding, or sudden collapse—or if you are ever unsure about any symptoms—contact emergency veterinary services without delay.

Veterinary care can sometimes be costly, but planning ahead can make it manageable. Set aside a small monthly budget specifically for your pet’s health needs, so you’re prepared for routine check-ups or unexpected emergencies. Consider pet insurance or payment plans offered by your veterinarian to help spread costs. You can also explore support from organisations like the PDSA, which provides care for pets in need, or ask your vet about charitable funds or income protection schemes. Regular preventative care, vaccinations, and dental checks not only keep your dog or cat healthy but can also prevent more expensive treatments later on. 

Changes such as aggression, fear, or apathy may indicate stress, illness, or pain. Observe carefully and consult a vet if they persist.

Natural supplements can support your pet’s overall health, from promoting healthy joints and digestion to supporting urinary and kidney function. When chosen correctly and used alongside a balanced diet, supplements can help maintain energy levels, reduce inflammation, and improve quality of life. Always check with your veterinarian before introducing new supplements. Small adjustments—like natural treats, balanced meals, or herbal supplements—can make a significant difference in your dog’s or cat’s daily happiness and long-term health.

Small daily actions can make a big difference to your dog’s or cat’s wellbeing. Providing a balanced diet, regular exercise, mental stimulation through play, and a comfortable living environment all contribute to a happier, healthier pet. Paying attention to their behaviour and responding to their needs helps prevent stress and illness, ensuring your pet enjoys a long, active, and joyful life. Be the Hero For Your Furry Friend!

Creating unforgettable moments with your dog or cat is easier than you think. Spend quality time playing, walking, or simply cuddling, and pay attention to their unique personality and needs. Incorporating fun routines, training sessions, and outdoor adventures not only strengthens your bond but also enhances their happiness and overall wellbeing. Small daily gestures can make life richer for both you and your pet.
