Understanding infection risks after veterinary surgeries is important to keep your pet safe and healthy. Post-surgical infections develop when bacteria enter the incision site, and this can lead to serious complications for your pet. The good news is that you can prevent most infections with proper care and attention.

Birds make wonderful companions, but they require specialized veterinary care that’s quite different from what dogs and cats need. Many bird owners feel uncertain about veterinary visits, especially if it’s their first time. Knowing what to do when taking your bird to the vet can reduce stress for both you and your feathered friend while making sure they get the care they need.
