Make sure to get your pet regularly checked by a vet. If you have seen any new lumps or skin lesions, you can share them with a vet. Catching it early makes treatment easier.
Ensure pets receive all recommended vaccines
Keeping your pet UTD on core vaccines like rabies strengthens their immune system to fight infections.
Keep pets away from raw meat diets
Make sure to cook all meat fully before feeding pets as raw meat can expose pets to leprosy.
Prevent contact with other possibly infected animals
Monitor your pet outdoors and don't allow contact with stray animals or with species potentially carrying leprosy.
Follow good hygiene practices
Practice frequent hand washing and maintain good overall hygiene to minimise the risk of infection.
