Common Pet Health Issues in Port Louis
As Mauritius's urban center, Port Louis presents specific pet health considerations:
- Urban parasites: High stray animal population increases exposure to fleas, ticks, and transmissible diseases. Year-round prevention is essential.
- Heat stress: Urban heat island effect makes Port Louis even hotter. Watch for heatstroke signs, especially during summer months (see Heatstroke Guide).
- Limited green space: Less outdoor exercise space means obesity risk. Discuss weight management with your vet.
- Noise stress: Urban noise (traffic, construction) can stress pets. Behavioral support available from Port Louis vets.
