In Seattle, Mutt and Kitty held a highly caffeinated discussion about the individual vaccination needs of pets. Pets have different health risks depending on their lifestyles.

Mutt and Kitty landed in San Francisco for a black tie event to wrap up their campaign and announce the results of their hard work! There’s still more in store for our 2 superstars in 2013—the fun is just getting started.

Watch their special segment nowPuppet Duo Promoting Importance of Pet Vaccination—WUSA, Washington, DC
http://adamsmorgan.wusa9.com/content/puppet-duo-promoting-importance-pet-vaccinationMerck Animal Health, maker of Nobivac® vaccines, has teamed up with Mutt and Kitty to help increase pet vaccinations. This dynamic duo have pledged to run the Vote for Vaccination campaign in 2012 on behalf of veterinary clinics to encourage pet owners to schedule regular visits to the veterinarian for vaccination assessments.
Why is this necessary?
Recent reports indicate that pet owners are taking their pets to their veterinarians less frequently for preventive care. In a survey conducted by Brakke Consulting and the Pert Group, dog and cat owners reported that they visited a veterinarian 20% less in 2011 than they did in 2007. And the Partnership for Preventive Pet Healthcare reports that visits to veterinary hospitals have declined every year for nearly a decade, even though the pet population has increased in that time.
In response to these declines, Mutt and Kitty encourage veterinary professionals to show their support of the Vote for Vaccination campaign and enable Mutt and Kitty to support their vaccination efforts at their clinics.
