InFURvention: A Creative Contest To Become Involved In Your Cat’s Preventative Care

In partnership with the world’s largest vetrinary clinic, Portland, Oregon based Banfield Hospital and Victoria Stillwell are joining together in raising awareness regarding how essential and effective vetrinary visits are for them, with a contest. Along with raising awareness to keep your cat healthy and well, Banfield and Stillwell provide tips and suggestions to understand and know when your cat is not well. Some of these include increased thirst, weight loss, bad breath, and more.

Stillwell is a widely recognized and respected dog trainer, best known for her television show on Animal Planet, It’s Me Or The Dog. Currently, she has launched Victoria Stillwell Positively Dog Training, which connects dog owners to certified world-wide positive reinforcement dog trainers.

To enter this contest, please follow the steps:

1. Create a video of you attempting to place your cat in its carrier, whether successful or not.

2. Use the hashtag #inFURvention in the video’s title.

3. Upload your video to YouTube.

The contest ends on August 17th, and the winner will be given a year’s worth of free preventative care, and an in-home visit from Victoria Stillwell.

This contest is receiving quite a bit of attention whether it be the news or various media outlets. This contest is an important and crucial one as there has been a significant decline in veterinary visits that are extremely vital for the safety and health of a pet. With felines, their health deterioration is much less noticable than it is in dogs, and this is why Banfield wants to focus more attention on cats specifically for this contest. They are also much more difficult in getting them to the veterinarian.
