Signs Your Pet May Be Ill

Pets are like small children. It’s difficult to know when they are sick. They can’t talk to us. But there are signs for which to look:

Amount of water they drink daily seems to change (more or less)

Stops eating food he used to enjoy

Stools appear different

Urinates more than normal

Major change in behavior (doesn’t want to play anymore, or begins to sleep more)

Hides for several days

Wants to be alone when he used to be socialable

Throws up a lot

Breaths heavily when he hasn’t been running, playing or isn’t overheated

A docile animal suddenly becomes aggressive with familiar people

Has lumps that don’t go away

Has sores that don’t heal

Sheds more than usual (birds lose more feathers)

Has difficulty going up or down stairs

Breath smells worse than usual
