05/18/2011 - Why It's Important to Vaccinate Cats
Nationally, twice as many cats as dogs are reported to have rabies each year, which is why it’s important to vaccinate your cats for rabies. Cats are natural predators and may be attracted to bats, which could be rabid. Cats come into contact with bats far more often than other pets and, if not vaccinated, may have to be euthanized after such contact.
Oregon State and County Law Requires Rabies Vaccination for Pets
Vaccinating cats against rabies protects them and provides a “buffer zone” between humans and rabid wild animals. Multnomah County requires all cats to be vaccinated for rabies.
Oregon law requires unvaccinated cats that may have been in contact with rabid animals (such as bats) to be quarantined for six months or euthanized. The contact animal, such as a bat, is considered rabid unless it is tested and is negative.
Vaccinated cats exposed to a rabid animal should be revaccinated immediately, kept under the owner's control, and observed for 45 days. Any illness in an isolated or confined animal should be reported immediately to the local health department. If signs suggestive of rabies develop, the animal should be euthanized and tested.
05/03/2011 - Cat Hospital of Portland has a new artist hanging for spring. Joan Kopp has been showing her cat paintings with us for three years. She practically sells out all of her work every time she shows here. Her paintings are beautiful and affordable. Come by and see her cats in our brightly illuminated lobby.
04/20/2011 - EASTER LILIES - We want to remind you that Easter Lilies are potentially deadly to cats. All parts of the plant are toxic and fatal poisoning can occur following ingestion of just one leaf. Signs may include vomiting, loss of appetite and depression. Avoid Easter Lilies in homes with cats. If you suspect your cat may have ingested part of a plant, seek immediate veterinary care.
04/15/2011 - Flea season usually begins in spring and lasts through the summer into early fall, but fleas can survive year round in western Oregon's moderate climate. Get on it now to avoid infestation. Pick up easy to apply flea treatment with us, Vectra or Revolution!!
