All those unfamiliar sights, sounds, and smells can be stressful for pets\u2014particularly for a cat or dog who has just been plucked from a nap, pushed into a carrier, and subjected to a bumpy car ride.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flowersmillveterinaryhospital.com\/\">Flowers Mill Veterinary Hospital<\/a>, we prioritize your pet\u2019s comfort and emotional well-being at every visit. In this blog, we share some of our favorite stress-free vet visit tips to help you keep your pet calm while staying on track with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flowersmillveterinaryhospital.com\/blog\/spring-wellness-checks-is-your-pet-ready-for-the-season\/\">veterinary care<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Preparing Pets for Vet Visits<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While completely fear-free veterinary visits may not be possible for all pets, there are plenty of ways of <em>reducing<\/em> pet anxiety at the vet, and it starts with preparing pets for vet visits well before the appointment.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Take Relaxing Road Trips<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Prove to your pet that not all car rides end with a vet visit. Let your pet tag along on quick errands (that don\u2019t require you to leave your pet alone in a parked car) or make time for sightseeing trips.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Request Early Morning Appointments<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Avoid crowded waiting rooms by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flowersmillveterinaryhospital.com\/forms\/appointment.html#appointment-type\">requesting the first appointment<\/a> of the day or asking to wait with your pet in the car until an examination room is ready.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Introduce the Carrier Gradually<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Carriers can trigger immediate anxiety for cats and small dogs, so give your pet plenty of time to get familiar with it. Keep the carrier in a room your pet frequents. Put a soft blanket on the bottom, and keep the door propped open to allow your pet to explore.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Keep Meals Minimal<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Full tummies are more prone to motion sickness, so offer your pet a very small meal the morning of the appointment. This will also make it easier to motivate your pet with treats.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Prepare Yourself for the Appointment, Too<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Pets can sense stress and apprehension in their favorite humans. Make sure you get plenty of rest, eat healthy, and allow plenty of time in your schedule for your pet\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flowersmillveterinaryhospital.com\/services\/pet-wellness.html\">veterinary visit<\/a>. Gather everything you need before putting your pet into the carrier or car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Provide Soothing Transportation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Spray the pet carrier or the car\u2019s interior with a pheromone spray, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/us.feliway.com\/\">Feliway<\/a> (for cats) or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adaptil.com\/us\">Adaptil<\/a> (for dogs). Keep the radio off or play instrumental or classical music at a low volume (if you know your pet enjoys it).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pet Anxiety Veterinary Care<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Reducing pet anxiety at the vet not only keeps the pet more comfortable, but it also helps us perform a thorough examination. If you have an extremely nervous pet, please let us know. We can prescribe a mild sedative to calm your pet.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flowersmillveterinaryhospital.com\/staff\/\">Our team<\/a> is happy to do all we can to support fear-free veterinary visits for your pets. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flowersmillveterinaryhospital.com\/contact-us\/\">Contact us<\/a> for more stress-free vet visit tips or to schedule your pet\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flowersmillveterinaryhospital.com\/blog\/springtime-in-langhorne-pet-care-tips-for-seasonal-wellness\/\">checkup<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Veterinary visits aren\u2019t always easy.
