But pets can\u2019t tell us when something feels different, and many health conditions don\u2019t cause obvious symptoms in their early stages.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baysideanimalhospitalonline.com\/\">Bayside Animal Hospital<\/a> in Granite Bay, annual pet bloodwork helps us look beneath the surface and learn more about your companion\u2019s health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Physical Exam Can\u2019t Reveal Everything<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A thorough nose-to-tail exam provides valuable information about your pet\u2019s weight, heart, lungs, skin, coat, teeth, joints, and overall condition. Still, even the most attentive physical exam can\u2019t show exactly how the internal organs are functioning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wellness blood tests can offer insight into areas such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Red and white blood cell counts<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Liver and kidney function<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Blood sugar levels<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Protein and electrolyte levels<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Signs of infection, inflammation, or anemia<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Platelet counts and blood-clotting ability<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These results add another layer to your pet\u2019s wellness evaluation. When considered alongside the physical exam, health history, age, lifestyle, and any changes you\u2019ve noticed at home, they help create a more complete picture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Early Changes May Not Cause Symptoms<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cats and dogs often hide signs of illness, and some conditions progress gradually enough that changes are difficult to notice. Your pet may continue eating, playing, and seeking attention even as an underlying problem develops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Routine testing may identify changes associated with kidney disease, liver problems, diabetes, anemia, infection, and other concerns before symptoms become pronounced. An abnormal result doesn\u2019t always mean your pet has a serious illness. It may simply indicate that additional testing, closer monitoring, or a small adjustment in care is appropriate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finding a potential problem earlier can give you and your veterinarian more options. In some cases, dietary changes, medication, weight management, or regular monitoring may help protect your pet\u2019s health and quality of life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Normal Results Create a Valuable Baseline<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bloodwork isn\u2019t useful only when it uncovers a concern. Normal results establish your pet\u2019s individual baseline: a record of what\u2019s typical for them when they\u2019re feeling well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Laboratory reference ranges reflect results from many animals, but every pet is different. When your veterinarian can compare this year\u2019s numbers with results from previous years, even subtle trends may become meaningful. A value may still fall within the standard range but may have changed noticeably for your individual pet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That history becomes especially helpful as pets age or if they develop symptoms later. Instead of relying on a single snapshot, our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baysideanimalhospitalonline.com\/staff\/our-veterinarians.html\">veterinarians<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baysideanimalhospitalonline.com\/staff\/our-staff.html\">staff<\/a> can review changes over time and make more informed recommendations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bloodwork Needs May Change With Age<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The appropriate testing schedule depends on your pet\u2019s age, medical history, medications, breed, and risk factors. Annual testing may be recommended for healthy adult pets, while <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baysideanimalhospitalonline.com\/blog\/aging-gracefully-health-and-wellness-tips-for-older-pets\/\">senior pets<\/a> or those managing chronic conditions may benefit from bloodwork more often.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your veterinarian may also recommend testing:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Before anesthesia or surgery<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Before starting certain medications<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>While monitoring long-term medication use<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>When appetite, thirst, weight, energy, or behavior changes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>After vomiting, diarrhea, or another illness<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These tests can help determine whether a procedure or medication is appropriate and provide useful information when your pet isn\u2019t feeling well. Your veterinarian will explain which tests are recommended and why.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Make Bloodwork Part of Preventive Veterinary Care<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Annual pet bloodwork helps us understand what\u2019s normal for your pet, identify changes promptly, and make proactive decisions. Along with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baysideanimalhospitalonline.com\/blog\/the-importance-of-annual-pet-exams\/\">regular exams<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baysideanimalhospitalonline.com\/blog\/a-complete-guide-to-puppy-and-kitten-vaccinations\/#more-1572\">vaccinations<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baysideanimalhospitalonline.com\/blog\/when-is-the-best-time-to-protect-your-pet-from-ticks-all-the-time\/\">parasite prevention<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baysideanimalhospitalonline.com\/services\/dental.html\">dental care<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baysideanimalhospitalonline.com\/blog\/understanding-pet-nutrition\/\">nutritional guidance<\/a>, blood testing is an important part of preventive veterinary care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even when your pet seems perfectly healthy, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baysideanimalhospitalonline.com\/services\/wellness.html\">wellness visit<\/a> can help keep it that way.
