How often should my dog or cat have a wellness exam?
Most dogs and cats benefit from at least one wellness exam each year, while puppies, kittens, senior pets, and pets with ongoing health concerns may need more frequent visits. During your pet’s exam, our veterinarians can recommend a schedule that fits their life stage, risk factors, and current health needs.

Why are vaccinations and parasite prevention important?
Vaccinations and parasite prevention help protect pets from preventable diseases and common parasites such as fleas, ticks, and heartworm. At Moonee Central Vet, our team can recommend appropriate preventive care based on your pet’s age, lifestyle, exposure risk, and previous medical history.

Do senior pets need different preventive care?
Senior pets often benefit from more detailed wellness monitoring because health changes can develop gradually. Preventative care for older dogs and cats may include routine exams, bloodwork, urinalysis, weight monitoring, and conversations about mobility, appetite, behaviour, and comfort at home.

When should I book a wellness visit for my pet?
You should book a wellness visit if your pet is due for vaccines, needs parasite prevention, is new to your family, is entering a new life stage, or has changes in weight, appetite, behaviour, or energy. Routine visits also help establish a baseline for your pet’s long-term health.

What to Expect at a Wellness Visit

During a wellness appointment, our veterinarians review your pet’s history, perform a physical exam, discuss any concerns, and recommend preventive care based on their needs. These visits are also a helpful time to ask questions about diet, behaviour, weight, parasite protection, or age-related changes.

When to Schedule Preventative Care

Routine veterinary visits help pets stay healthier through every life stage.

Preventative care is helpful for young pets, adult pets, and senior companions. Schedule a visit when your pet is due for vaccinations, needs parasite prevention, has a lifestyle change, or shows changes in appetite, behaviour, weight, mobility, or energy.
