🎅🐾 Santa Paws Success! Thank YOU! 🐾🎅

Wow — you all sleighed it today! A huge, furry, festive THANK YOU to everyone who came out with their pets for our Santa Paws photos! From wiggly pups to funny cats, you brought all the holiday magic (and a whole lot of cuteness). All of the pets we saw today DEFINITELY make Santa Paws nice list 😻!

Thanks to your big hearts, every dollar raised will help animals in communities that need a little extra love — from strays looking for a second chance to pets whose families are struggling to afford vet care. Your support means these animals will get the care, comfort, and kindness they deserve. ❤️

We couldn’t do it without you — thanks for helping us make this season brighter, fluffier, and full of joy! 🐶🐱✨🎄

🐾 Our Kitten program has been a HUGE success so far this year so we are STILL accepting Mama cats and Kittens! 🐾
If you’re caring for a mama cat and her kittens, or know someone who is, we’d love to help. Here’s how our program works:
✅ Once the kittens are 8-9 weeks of age we will get Mama in for a health exam, test for Feline Leukemia (FeLV) and Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV), and have her spayed to help prevent future litters. We keep the kittens and help them find forever homes.
✅ Kittens in the program receive full care including:
🐱 Spay or neuter
📎 Microchipping
💉 Vaccinations
💊 Parasite prevention
🩺 Full health exams
In the last four years we’ve found loving homes for 218 kittens and would love to help more!💕
If you have a mama cat who could benefit from this program, please give us a call for more information.
Let’s work together to reduce overpopulation and give all of the sweet kittens the healthiest start possible!❤

❄️ COLD WEATHER PET SAFETY ALERT – Amherst Cold Snap Tonight ❄️
We’re heading into an extreme cold snap tonight with a low of –16°C and a windchill near –29°C. Please take extra precautions to keep all animals safe and warm.

🐱 Cats
• Keep outdoor and indoor/outdoor cats indoors until temperatures rise.
• Consider setting out insulated shelters for feral cats who may have nowhere warm to go.

🐶 Dogs
• Bring all dogs indoors for the duration of the cold snap.
• Only allow short, supervised bathroom breaks.
• Use sweaters or jackets for extra warmth when outdoors.

🏠 Indoor Comfort
• Provide plenty of warm, cozy spots for pets to rest.

🚗 Car Safety
• Never leave pets in cold cars—they chill quickly.
• Bang on your car hood before starting it; cats and small wildlife may climb inside seeking warmth.

🐾 Paw Protection
• After outdoor trips, wipe off salt and ice from paws.
• Use pet-safe ice melt around your home whenever possible.

🐄 Farm Animal Care
• Consider blanket sweaters for livestock and outdoor animals.
• Ensure they have a heated, warm place to access.
• Ensure drinking water is kept thawed and accessible at all times.

Stay warm, stay safe, and give your pets an extra cuddle tonight! 💙

🎉 Happy Birthday, Rachael! 🎉

Today we celebrate our incredible technician, Rachael!
Her technical skills are unmatched, her upbeat personality and kind heart keep our team and clients feeling supported, and her dedication to the profession shines through in everything she does. Her love of veterinary medicine is only outshined by her love of orange cats!

She’s also the queen of silly voices — and we’re endlessly grateful for the laughter she brings into the clinic every single day.

Thank you for all you do, Rachael. We hope your birthday is filled with as much joy as you bring to all of us! 💙🐾

To wrap up November — Senior Pet Awareness Month — we want to highlight this helpful infographic on pain in pets.

While pain can occur at any age and for many reasons, it’s especially common in our senior companions due to osteoarthritis and natural bone & joint changes as they grow older.

Common signs of pain in pets include:
• Slowing down or becoming less playful
• Hesitating to jump or use the stairs
• Sleeping more than usual
• Limping or stiffness
• Decreased appetite
• Behaviour changes like irritability or hiding
• Overgrooming or licking one area
• Changes in bathroom habits

If you notice any signs of pain in your pet, please contact us. Even the smallest changes can give us important clues about how they’re feeling. If something seems “off,” we’re here to help. Early support can make a world of difference, leading to a happier, more comfortable life for your furry family member. 💙🐾
