Stay Healthy This Fall: Why a July Spay/Neuter & Vaccine Combo Works Best

Are you planning a fall trip, adoption milestone, or senior check-up for your pet? Then July is the perfect month to book their spay or neuter surgery at AM PM Spay & Neuter Clinic—and combine it with essential vaccines and health screenings.
1. Pre-Surgical Testing: More Than Just Sterilization
Every spay/neuter procedure at AM PM Norwalk begins with thorough pre-surgical testing. These include complete blood work and physical exams to ensure your pet can safely undergo anesthesia. Detecting hidden issues—like liver or kidney problems—before surgery significantly reduces risks and improves recovery.
2. On-Site Vaccination Adds Protection
July brings increased opportunities for social interactions—park visits, playdates, dog boardings—heightening exposure to diseases like rabies, distemper/parvo (DHPP), and feline FVRCP. Why not utilize your pet’s surgical visit to update vaccinations too?
AM PM Clinic offers vaccination services, so you can check multiple boxes in a single visit. Helping your pet recover from anesthesia while also boosted with immunity is a stress-free, efficient approach.
3. Heartworm Testing and Preventive Care: A Smart Combo
Norwalk’s summer climate makes it prime mosquito season—mosquitoes can transmit deadly heartworm disease. AM PM offers heartworm testing alongside vaccines and surgery, ensuring you aren't unprotected post-op. Additionally, they offer guidance on flea, tick, and heartworm prevention—critical for a healthy fall.
4. Why July? Timing Your Pet's Health Reset
Choosing July gives your pet a head start on post-surgery recovery and immunization during the quieter fall months. It leaves September and October open for low-key adventures or holiday travel with a healthy, updated pet—no last-minute vet visits needed.
5. Low-Cost, One-Stop Pet Care
AM PM Spay & Neuter Clinic excels at affordable, high-volume care. Their annual output of thousands of spays and neuters proves their cost-efficiency and experience. By bundling services—surgery, lab work, vaccines, and testing—you maximize value and convenience.
6. Comfort for You and Your Pet
