Portland has all of this and more…but with the increase in temperature some of our less desirable “friends” become more active too!  Internal and external parasites abound in Portland all year-round….and until your best friend starts scratching or having tummy troubles…you may not have a clue what’s “bugging” him.   Have an indoor only cat?  They can be affected too!  We can help!
