Pet wellness programs at South Fraser Animal Hospital provide structured preventive care for dogs and cats at every stage of life in Abbotsford, BC. Each plan bundles the core preventive care elements most relevant to your pet’s current life stage, from the first puppy or kitten visit through their senior years. Consistent, proactive care reduces the risk of preventable illness and helps us detect early changes before they become serious concerns.
The puppy wellness plan covers the essential care your new dog needs in the first year, including a complete core vaccine series, deworming, flea and tick prevention, wellness exams, and nutritional guidance. Each visit builds on the last, with our team tracking growth and development, addressing early health concerns, and establishing a long-term relationship between your pet and our clinic. We also discuss spay and neuter timing, microchipping, and socialization at every puppy visit so that you leave with a clear picture of what comes next. Puppies who start with consistent veterinary care in the first year are better positioned for a healthy adult life.
The kitten wellness plan supports your cat through the first months of life with a complete FVRCP vaccine series, feline leukemia vaccine, deworming, parasite prevention, and regular developmental monitoring. Kitten visits also cover litter box habits, nutrition, indoor versus outdoor considerations, and the appropriate timing for spaying or neutering. Early and consistent veterinary care during the kitten stage builds immunity, establishes behavioral patterns, and creates a foundation for long-term health that carries your cat through adulthood and into their senior years.
Adult dogs and cats benefit from at least one thorough wellness exam per year, alongside booster vaccines as needed, parasite screening, and a full body condition assessment. The adult wellness plan keeps your pet's preventive care on schedule and builds a consistent health record that makes it easier to identify meaningful changes over time. We adjust the plan based on what we observe at every visit and welcome any questions or concerns you bring. Preventive care for adult pets is significantly more cost-effective than managing conditions that develop without regular monitoring.
Pets aged seven and older benefit from closer monitoring as their bodies change with age. The senior wellness plan includes more frequent exams, a comprehensive blood panel, urinalysis, blood pressure assessment when indicated, and a detailed discussion of weight, mobility, dental health, and overall quality of life. Early detection of kidney disease, thyroid conditions, arthritis, dental disease, and cardiac changes allows us to start supportive care proactively, in a way that meaningfully improves your senior pet's comfort and extends the quality of their time with your family.
Each wellness plan bundles the preventive care appropriate for your pet’s life stage, including wellness exams, vaccines, parasite screening, and nutritional guidance. The specific components vary by plan tier. We walk you through what is included and what is recommended at your first visit, and revisit the plan annually as your pet grows and their needs evolve.
Puppies and kittens ideally have their first visit between 8 and 10 weeks of age to begin the vaccine series and establish a health baseline. If you have already had your pet for some time, book as soon as possible. Call us at (604) 855-0770 to arrange a first visit.
We recommend wellness visits every six months for pets aged seven and older. Senior pets benefit from more frequent monitoring because conditions can change quickly, and early detection makes a meaningful difference in how effectively they can be managed.
