Did you remember to give this months Tick and Heartworm prevention? These are safe and effective products and Sully loves them! We've been seeing increases in Heartworm Disease in the area, especially in Whitedog, ON.

These are unprecedented times. We’ve all heard this countless times since the start of the COVID19 pandemic as people and businesses around the world work to navigate this new normal. But we need to say it again. These are unprecedented times. Frontline workers and citizens of Kenora are all doing their part to protect this treasured community of ours.... At the Kenora Veterinary Clinic, we are striving to balance both high quality patient care and the health and safety of our team during not only a global pandemic, but also the busiest season we have ever had. We ask you for your patience. Our phone lines are extremely busy, but they are working! You may wait awhile to get through to us, but rest assured, we are running to get to your call. To try and work around this, we have set up online booking and email at [email protected]. We are monitoring the email and we will get to you as soon as we can! Emergencies and sick patients are taking priority over wellness checks and vaccinations, however these are important to us too. Throughout this pandemic, our clinic doors have remained open. Our team has not missed a single day to provide care for the pets of this community. We are honoured to have the privilege to work with you in Northwestern Ontario. Thank you, Kenora for your patience and support as we navigate this together. To all Front Line Workers, we thank you. Sincerely, The KVC #kenoravet

MARCEL IS BLASTO-FREE! After almost 1 year of therapy, Marcel's family received the happy news today! As a result of his infection, Marcel lost his eyesight in both eyes and is completely blind. However, this hasn't slowed him down and he can definitely feel ALL the love we have for him at the KVC! Blastomycosis is a nasty fungal infection and sadly is endemic here in Kenora, ON. It is typically found in the soil and infects dogs, cats, and people. Blasto can infect many body systems and clinical signs can range from fever, lethargy, coughing, limping, skin infections, and uveitis (inflammation inside the eye). CONGRATULATIONS, MARCEL! We are so thrilled with the happy news for one of our favourite patients! #kenoravet

During her time off, Sia can be found riding her horse or tossing a fishing line somewhere. Sia’s 4 fur kids cats Jessie and Pete, Snooze the horse, and Wally the guinea pig are her pride and joy. Thank you, Sia!

Did you know that wood ticks are still out!? Nova came in to get her tick prevention, a chewable tablet that can be give once monthly, or once every 3 months, depending on the age of your pet. They taste great and are the best prevention we have against Lyme Disease and Anaplasmosis! Lyme disease, caused by the bacteria Borrellia burgdorferi, is endemic in Kenora and Manitoba, and spread by the deer tick aka Ixodes scapularis. Clinical signs include fever, lethargy, joint pai...n/stiffness, and in severe cases can affect kidney function. The same tick is responsible for the spread of Anaplasmosis, an additional tick-borne disease that we are seeing more in Kenora. These symptoms are similar to Lyme Disease and also include vomiting, diarrhea, anemia. Call us to get your tick prevention for your pet! #kenoravet

If you don’t see Heather at eye level, it may be because she is on the floor saying hello to a furry friend. When she’s not at the clinic, Heath...er can be found exploring the outdoors hiking, fishing, and camping. Heather is a skilled writer and can be found hiding in a book when she needs a rest.
