September is Animal Pain Awareness Month
September is Animal Pain Awareness Month. The International Veterinary Academy of Pain Management (IVAPM) works to raise awareness and create greater understanding for our animals suffering with pain. Just as in humans, there is silent suffering of different ailments that might cause pain.
WHY ANIMAL PAIN AWARENESS MONTH IS IMPORTANT?
1. It reminds us look out for subtle changes in our pets’ behaviour
Unfortunately, they can’t speak up to let us know when something is troubling them. That’s why it’s important to learn the signs.
2. Proper pain management now helps reduce risks later
It can save them from a serious illness or other irreversible issue.
3. It highlights the need for having a great veterinarian
It’s important to establish a relationship with a veterinarian for annual check-ups. Should an issue arise, you’ll know exactly whom to call.
