WHY THE DIFFICULTY GIVING PETS MEDICINE?

ADMINISTERING medications to dogs can be challenging, often straining the pet-owner bond. Many owners struggle with traditional methods, leading to missed doses and stress. A study shows 65% of pet owners face difficulties giving pills, with 29% feeling stressed. Veterinary experts emphasise the importance of stress-free medication routines for managing chronic conditions like skin diseases. Innovations in pet medications, such as palatable treat-like options and long-acting injectables, are making the process easier, ensuring pets receive necessary treatments consistently and improving their overall well-being.

Super Members Council CEO Misha Schubert urges swift passage of the Bill, highlighting its potential to significantly improve financial security for women and advance gender equity in retirement.
