With societal development and lifestyle changes, the role of pets has long transcended the traditional category of "companion animals" — they have become indispensable "family members" and emotional anchors in many households. Their health is closely linked to human quality of life and emotional well-being, and they have even become a key factor influencing family happiness. For this reason, pet health management is by no means a single "pet-keeping task"; it requires support from a scientific system guided by the principles of "prevention first, assessment as the foundation, and diagnosis as the priority":
Daily disease prevention reduces health risks; regular health assessments enable dynamic monitoring of physical conditions; and accurate, timely disease diagnosis is the core link — it is not only the prerequisite for formulating subsequent treatment plans, but also the key to preventing disease spread, safeguarding pets’ lives, and even protecting human health (e.g., prevention and control of zoonotic diseases). It directly determines the ultimate effectiveness of pet health management.
