What to pack for your pet’s stay?

Food

While Cinco Ranch Veterinary Hospital can provide in-house food as needed, we encourage you to bring the food your pet eats at home to enjoy while they stay with us. Changing a pet’s food can cause stomach irritation and digestive issues, so we prefer to feed them the food they regularly eat.

Please only bring us the amount that your pet will need for the stay in a disposable zip-lock bag.

If possible separate each meal in disposable zip-lock bags labeled "AM" for each breakfast meal and/or "PM" for each dinner meal.

Treats

We do not accept any treats or hard bones that may present a risk to your pet during their stay. If you are bringing treats with your pet, only bring enough for your pet's stay and if would like them given at certain times of the day, please let our receptionist know when you drop off.

We can administer medications to your pet with an additional fee.

All medications, including joint supplement are given by a veterinary technician as directed.

Prescription medications should be provided in their respective prescription containers, along with clear written directions.

Medications must be kept separate from foods.

If you bring a stuffed or large style bed for your pet, they may not be launderable based on their size.
