True or False: Seasonal weight gain happens to pets too.

 
seasonal weight gain for pets


Answer: True


Just like people, pets can experience seasonal weight gain. As the summer days of romping at the beach or park come to an end, and fall and winter rain or snow begins, we tend to become less active and spend more time indoors. This means our pets are less active, and if they continue receiving the same number of calories as they’re fed in the summer, weight gain can be a result. Once our pets gain weight, it can be difficult to get back to a healthy weight and body condition. Speak to your VCA veterinarian about your pet’s caloric needs to help keep them trim and healthy!
