Leukemia is a serious condition affecting the blood and immune system of animals, particularly cats. It is crucial for pet owners to recognize the signs and symptoms, such as lethargy, weight loss, and recurrent infections, to seek timely veterinary care at Pine Animal Hospital & Integrative Wellness Center.

Early diagnosis and treatment are essential for managing leukemia effectively, and our team at Pine Animal Hospital & Integrative Wellness Center is equipped to provide comprehensive care for affected pets.
