Bringing home a new furry family member is a heartwarming experience, but it also comes with great responsibility. Top on our list of priorities as a "pawrent" is to ensure our pet's health, happiness and wellbeing. Dr Lee Wai Wai (Founder of PetMedic, and Veterinarian, Lee Vet Clinic) and Dr Yap Boon Kai (Veterinarian, Yap Animal Clinic & Surgery) join us to discuss all that we need to know as a pet-owner, from keeping our pets happy, active and engaged, to understanding preventive care, vaccinations, and common health issues that our pets may face.
