Pet Questions and Answers
Question: How often should I see my veterinarian?
Answer: All companion animals (cats, dogs, ferrets) should see their veterinarian for a physical exam, fecal exam, and appropriate blood testing and vaccinations annually.  The kinds of vaccinations the pet gets varies depending on their management, age, and disease history.  The recommended blood tests vary by their species, by management and age as well.
