Halloween is all about costumes, candy, and fun scares, but it can also bring some unexpected risks for pets. As you prepare for this spooky season, don’t forget to keep your pet’s health in mind! From vaccinations and parasite prevention to heartworm testing and microchipping, CityVax is here to make sure your furry friend is ready to celebrate Halloween safely.
Our pop-up clinics offer low-cost, high-quality pet health services to make essential care affordable and accessible. Here’s how we can help you get your pet prepped for a safe and happy Halloween.
Halloween means more outdoor adventures, more visitors, and possibly more pet-to-pet contact if you’re headed to pet-friendly festivities. All that socialization can increase your pet’s exposure to other animals and potential diseases. Vaccines help protect against these risks by keeping your pet’s immune system primed and ready.
Core vaccinations, such as those for rabies, distemper, and parvovirus, are essential for all pets. If your pet hasn’t had these shots, or if they’re due for a booster, now’s the time to visit a CityVax pop-up clinic. Our friendly team can ensure your pet is fully protected, giving you peace of mind as they join in the Halloween fun.
Halloween isn’t the only thing creeping around this season—parasites like fleas, ticks, and intestinal worms are a year-round threat, especially in areas with warm autumn temperatures. As you gear up for Halloween, make sure your pet is covered with parasite prevention. Fleas and ticks can transmit harmful diseases, while intestinal parasites can cause discomfort and health issues.
CityVax offers a range of parasite prevention options to help keep these pests at bay. Stop by one of our pop-up clinics to find out which parasite prevention is best for your pet. Our affordable options make it easy to keep your pet safe from these creepy crawlies without breaking the bank.
Heartworms are another hidden threat that can affect both cats and dogs. They’re transmitted by mosquito bites, and fall is still prime mosquito season in many areas of the U.S. Heartworm disease is serious and potentially life-threatening, but the good news is that it’s preventable.
A simple heartworm test is a great precaution to take, especially if you haven’t had one done recently. At CityVax, we provide convenient, low-cost heartworm testing so you can keep your pet safe from this parasite. Once tested, we can help you choose the best heartworm prevention plan to keep your pet protected all year long.
With more outdoor activities, trick-or-treaters, and doors opening and closing, Halloween can be a high-risk time for pets to slip out and get lost. Microchipping provides an added layer of security, ensuring your pet can be quickly reunited with you if they get separated. A microchip contains your contact information, making it easier for shelters and veterinarians to reach you if your pet is found.
CityVax pop-up clinics make microchipping easy, affordable, and stress-free. It’s a one-time procedure that provides lifelong peace of mind, so if you haven’t microchipped your pet yet, now is a great time.
Getting your pet Halloween-ready doesn’t have to be complicated. CityVax’s pop-up clinics are designed to make essential pet healthcare affordable, convenient, and accessible.
