Your pet should visit the vet at least once a year. Even if your pet doesn't seem sick, it is important to take it to the vet clinic for a regular check-up.
Pets need vaccinations to protect them from illnesses. Some people call vaccinations "shots" or "needles", but they all mean the same thing. The vet will be able to tell you when your pet needs to update its vaccinations to stay healthy as can be.
If your pet is hurt or sick, you must get it the proper veterinary care. This may cost a lot of money. That's the price you have to pay to care for a friend like this.
