Healthcare
for Your Cat
Whether your cat was adopted from the Humane Society
of Missouri or came from someplace else, he or she will
need a health examination and to be vaccinated. Below
are services we offer for your cat's health.
- Wellness exams and preventative medicine, including Feline Leukemia
vaccinations, and flea, tick and ear mite products
- Microchipping - a permanent form of ID for your
cat (Please keep your cat indoors, protected
from cars, dogs and inhumane people. Cats should
always wear a collar with two phone numbers
on the ID tag.)
- Treatment and advice for behavior problems including
improperly using the litterbox
- Declaw surgery (strictly for cats who stay indoors
at all times)
- Dental cleanings and extractions, because owners
often overlook the care of their cat's teeth, leading
to discomfort, decay and infection. Clean teeth are
important to everybody!
- Diagnostic tests such as x-rays, ultrasounds and
endoscopies to see any problems that might be occurring
inside your pet, such as broken bones and tumors
- In-house laboratory tests including urinalysis to
check for bladder infections, fecal analysis to check
for worms, and blood profiles to diagnose diabetes,
liver or kidney disease
- Surgeries to repair wounds or to remove tumors or
foreign bodies
- Orthopedic procedures for fractured bones
- Medical treatments for illnesses such as upper
respiratory infection, skin diseases, eye/ear diseases,
heart and kidney diseases, and diabetes
