Alt: What your friends won't tell you about owning a cat or dog.
This is just a thought I've had, a little bit of extra education for the pet owners among you. One of the things that I first noticed working at a veterinarians is just how little the average person knew about their pets, myself included. In an attempt to remedy some of that, while consolidating my own knowledge, I'm going to write a series of posts regarding the care of our fuzzy companions. Sure, reptiles are fun, but every so often I need to admit that not everyone is interested in them.
To kick off this set I'm going to present you with a bit of knowledge relating to those most constant companions: cats and dogs.
