February is Dental Health Month!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When rough tartar accumulates on tooth surfaces and touches the gum line, it may be time for a professional oral assessment, treatment, and preventative dental cleaning! Untreated dental disease can lead to bone loss, tooth extractions and systemic disease!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fear Free Reaches Hawaii!<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

KNSAC is proud to be the FIRST hospital in the state of Hawaii to be Fear Free Certified<\/strong>! The Fear Free movement aligns perfectly with our philosophy of providing compassionate care to our patients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What does this mean for you and your pet? Fear Free is a program that is designed to minimize Fear, Stress and Anxiety (FAS) before, during and after your pets veterinary visit! By understanding and addressing FAS in patients, we\u2019ve become even more dedicated to creating a calm and positive experience for every patient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every team member on our staff has undergone rigorous training and certification to make sure that we are treating pets with a compassionate experience at the clinic.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

From offering quiet outdoor spaces for appointments to using pheromones, high-value treats, and interactive toys, we personalize each visit to suit your pet\u2019s individual needs. The results have been remarkable\u2014we\u2019ve seen happier patients, more relaxed clients, and a supportive environment for our team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Learn more about the Fear Free approach on our website or ask us during your next visit. We\u2019re always happy to share tips to reduce FAS at home, too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Guess what? At Kaua’i North Shore Animal Clinic, we\u2019re not just here for cats and dogs\u2014we also have a special place in our hearts for our bunny friends!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These include dental trims and floats, spay and neuter procedures, microchipping, pedicures, and scent gland expressions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Did you know that rabbits purr when they\u2019re happy? They also perform joyful leaps, kicks, and midair twists called \u201cbinkies\u201d\u2014their way of saying, \u201cI love my life!\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep up the great care, and we can\u2019t wait to meet your bunny family members!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meet… Loalani
The Golden Retriever with a Bunny Heart !<\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This month, we\u2019re excited to introduce Loalani, a playful and affectionate 24-week-old Golden Retriever who brings joy to everyone she meets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Loalani has a special bond with her beloved toy\u2014a baby coconut\u2014which she treats like her little companion. She adores her mommy and daddy, who spoil her with love, cuddles, and even the occasional costume, PJs, or festive Christmas sweater!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But what makes Loalani truly unique is her adorable entourage: four bunnies and two cats! She seems to have fully embraced her inner bunny, eagerly joining in on veggie feasts\u2014especially when romaine lettuce is on the menu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With her loving nature and playful spirit, Loalani is proof that family comes in all shapes, sizes\u2026 and species!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
