The Pet Flexible Digital Thermometer takes accurate and reliable rectal, oral as well as axillary temperature readings. The flexible tip of the thermometer therefore provides a comfortable probe for taking temperature readings from your cat or dog. Batteries are also included.
Before using the Pet Flexible Digital Thermometer, wash the thermometer probe thoroughly, and following each subsequent use with a damp cloth..
Taking Your Pet’s Temperature
Nervousness and exercise causes body temperature to rise as will excess heat and infections. Temperatures below normal are caused by exposure to cold weather but also by shock. Wherever possible use a digital thermometer as they are the most accurate as well as being easy to read.
Temperature Range
A cat or dog’s normal temperature is between 100.5 and 102.5 degrees Fahrenheit.
