🐾Sometimes the best kind of support comes on four paws! 🐾

For some pets, having their sibling come along for their vet visit makes the experience a calmer and more positive experience, and it certainly brings a smile to our team! 💛

Little moments of comfort make a big difference. 🥰

Show us your support buddies in the comments, we’d love to see them! 💛

🐾 Patient Spotlight: Flynt & Fisher 🐾

Meet Flynt and Fisher, two sweet cats who were recently brought to Coastal after being exposed to lilies, a plant that can be extremely dangerous for our feline friends.

Even tiny amounts of any part of a lily (including the pollen) can cause sudden and severe kidney damage.
While some cats are more susceptible than others, most will show signs of kidney injury on bloodwork within 48 hours, and in rare cases up to 72 hours.

To reduce the risk of kidney injury, Flynt and Fisher were hospitalized for 48 hours on IV fluid therapy, supportive medications, frequent monitoring of their kidney values and lots of TLC🥰😻

We’re happy to share that their bloodwork stayed normal throughout their stay, showing no signs of kidney damage and they both were able to return home together. 💕

✨ A little art goes a long way! ✨

Our talented and caring surgical VTAs have been adding a special touch to their patients’ bandages, turning simple bandages into mini works of art. 🎨💛

It’s just one of the many ways they show how much they care, making recovery a bit brighter (and cuter!) for our patients. 🐾💚

We’d love to see your pet’s bandage art! Share a photo in the comments below.

🐾Hospital stays can be stressful for our feline friends, that’s why we do our best to make their experience as calm and comfortable as possible. 🐾

One simple way we help is by providing boxes for our feline friends to curl up in or hide in.📦🥰

Cats love to have a safe place to hide, so we make sure to save boxes (Costco boxes are a fan favorite!) to create cozy forts for our patients. It’s amazing how much comfort a simple box can bring. 💕 🐱

If your cat loves a good box at home, we’d love to see it! Share a photo of your cat enjoying their favorite box in the comments below.
