While many cats can tolerate a trip to the vet, the whole experience can potentially be very stressful for both pet and owner. There is the initial step of attempting to find your cat, who may have an amazing gift of extrasensory perception and is hidden somewhere in the house. After finding them, you then have to load them into the carrier, which can be difficult, especially if you haven’t worked on training and practice. Then there is the car drive to the vet’s office.

Have you thought about the health of your pet’s eyes? Chances are, as long as your dog or cat seems to see okay, you may not have thought much about it.

However, they can be susceptible to eye problems, and one of those eye problems is known as cherry eye.

This unsightly condition gets its name from a reddish mass in the eye. It can protrude from the eye and sits like a red bump in the corner.

Nothing says summer like a road trip. But is your dog ready? Despite the carefree image of a happy dog with his head handing out the window of the back seat, there’s a lot to consider.
