If you have just welcomed a new pet to the family, there is a lot to learn about pet care. For nearly 30 years, Mililani Town Center Pet Clinic has been the premier pet services provider in Mililani, Hawaii. In addition to offering top-notch preventative care and high-quality pet supplies and food, the veterinary clinic staff also takes the time to patiently answer questions and make sure you know how to take good care of your pet.

Here is a new pet checklist that will help make sure you and your new friend stay happy and healthy together for a long time:

• Prepare Your Home: Make sure your home is ready for your newest family member. Dogs need crates and/or beds, and cats need litter boxes. The pet doctors at Mililani Town Center Pet Clinic can recommend the right size for your furry friend.

• Buy Supplies: You’ll also need to shop for pet care supplies. Whether you selected a dog or a cat, you’ll need to stock up on things like grooming supplies, toys, a collar and ID tag, and food. Ask your vet for help with choosing the right brand of food for your pet.

• Visit The Veterinary Clinic: After you’ve brought your pet home, schedule an appointment at Mililani Town Center Pet Clinic. The friendly and knowledgeable veterinarians will tell you everything you need to know about pet care, from vaccinations and vitamins to medications. You can also ask about spaying and neutering, potty training, obedience school, and how to properly discipline your pet.

Don’t forget to order identification if your state requires pet licensing, and consider registering your pet with AKC Reunite in case they ever get lost.
