Let’s face it, your pet is as much a part of your family as every person under the roof. They grow old and get sick, just like you and me. After years and years of love, you want to make comforting end-of-life decisions. 
Hospice care is a unique approach to your pet’s end-of-life needs.
This specific type of veterinary care is focused on the comfort of your pet, not at finding a cure for their disease. It is fitting if your pet has been diagnosed with an incurable illness or if further therapy options have been declined in lieu of comfort-oriented care. The goal is to manage the symptoms, focusing on comfort and maintaining the pet and family bond.
Hospice care requires a passionate client-patient-doctor relationship. Education about your pet’s medical condition and what you can do to help are the most important aspects of hospice care.
You need to know what to expect in those last few weeks, days, and hours in order to make the best decision for you, your pet, and your family. Although we cannot know with 100% certainty, we use our medical knowledge to help you make those decisions. We assist you in implementing a plan that will meet your pet’s needs and respect your family’s wishes.
- Education about the end-stage process
- Diagnosis and prognosis
- Pain management
- Developing a comfortable environment
- Nutritional needs
- Management of non-life threatening conditions
- Bandage and wound care
Before you prepare yourself to send your pet to heaven, consider continuing the relationship with hospice care. We would love to spend our time helping you extend your time with your pet.
After discovering your website online, I find the information very comforting and educational.
My Senior cat Alex was diagnosed with cancer-.nasal tumor on August 15 of this year.
After the CT scan, the Vet Drs said their was no cure; just keep him comfortable like you spoke about.
We do take Alex for acupuncture treatments
once a week which was recommended by our holistic Vet. It does seem to help him feel better. I also do hot steam baths with Alex, several times a day, and this seems to help him also. The main concern our Vet has is the breathing. She does not want us to wait until he is gasping for breath before we decide to put him down. This is such a difficult decision, one which we never had to make. It is also confusing to know when to end his life.
Would you be able to come out and see Alex?
He is the sweetest cat I have ever known
Thank you for reading my email.
God Bless You
for all that you do
