Blood in your dog’s p*e doesn’t always mean a simple urinary infection. 🩸

This senior girl, 13 years old, had blood in her urine on and off for weeks. During her check-up, our vet felt something firm in her bladder, and an X-ray confirmed it: a bladder stone.

Because of her age, we first talked through non-surgical options with her family. After monitoring, surgery was the chosen path. The stone came out, she recovered well in our ward, and she’s now home on a urinary diet with regular rechecks.

The stone turned out to be struvite, and knowing the type is what helps us prevent the next one.

Bring your dog in if you notice:
• Blood in the urine, especially if it keeps coming back
• Straining, or p*eing only small amounts
• Peeing more often or in odd places

🚨 If your dog can’t p*e at all, that’s an emergency. Don’t wait.

Trivia time! 🐾 Can you guess how many teeth an adult cat has? Drop your answer in the comments first, no p*eking 👀


Answer: B) 30 teeth! 🦷 Kittens start with 26 baby teeth, which fall out at around 3 to 6 months to make way for their adult set.

Here’s the tricky part: cats are pros at hiding discomfort, so dental issues can go unnoticed for a long time. Regular dental checks help catch problems early, before they become painful (and costly).

When was your kitty’s last dental check?

Happy Deepavali from all of us at My Family Vet! 🪔✨

May this Festival of Lights bring warmth, joy and prosperity to you, your family, and your furry loved ones 🐾

A quick reminder while you celebrate: keep oil lamps and candles out of reach of curious paws and wagging tails, and keep festive sweets away from your pets. Treats like these are made for humans, not furkids!

Wishing everyone a bright and safe celebration 💛

Monsoon season = puddles, mosquitoes and happy ticks 🙃🌧️

The wetter months bring more than just muddy paws. A little prep now can save your dog (and you!) a lot of trouble later.

Swipe for our pre-monsoon checklist ➡️ and save it for later!

Worried about ticks or mites? Mites are too tiny to see with the naked eye, so the only way to know for sure is a quick microscopic fur check, just S$15.

Not sure if your dog is ready? Walk in and let us check. No appointment needed.

Tear off what your pet needs today.

A quick guide for our pet family on why each of these matters:

👩‍⚕️ Check-up: a regular once-over helps us spot small things before they turn into big ones.
💉 Vaccination: the simplest way to protect them from illnesses that are much harder to treat than to prevent.
🦷 Dental: bad breath or tartar can look minor, but dental problems can lead to pain and infection if left alone.
🔍 Screening: some issues stay quiet until they're advanced, so a blood test can show us what we can't see from the outside.

Not sure which one your pet needs right now? That's exactly what a consultation is for. Walk in anytime, no appointment needed. For dental, just message us first and we'll book you a slot.

Noticed your cat’s fur getting everywhere around the house lately? 🐱

Hmm… you’re definitely not alone. Some of our fur family go through the same thing too.

Here are some of the most common reasons behind excessive shedding:

🦟 Parasites: fleas, mites, and other little troublemakers
🤧 Allergies: food, environmental allergies, or even flea allergies
🦠 Infections: skin infections can sometimes cause extra hair loss
😿 Stress: yep, cats can stress-groom themselves too
⚖️ Hormonal changes: sometimes, there’s something going on internally

And here’s the thing: if your cat is shedding much more than usual, it’s worth getting it checked rather than just brushing it off.

Come by anytime and we’ll be happy to help figure out what’s going on. No appointment needed. 🐾

FAQ Corner: What age should I sterilize my dog or cat? 🐾

The general rule: 6 months is the minimum age for both dogs and cats. This isn't just a random number — for male pets especially, we wait until the testicles have fully developed and descended, which allows for a safer and more straightforward procedure.

That said, the exact right timing can still vary depending on your pet's breed, size, and overall health. That's why we don't do one-size-fits-all answers here. Dr Vanessa will assess your pet individually and walk you through the best timing during your consultation.
