✨Today we are celebrating Judith, an incredible RVT and rehabilitation therapist⭐️

Judith is a rehabiliation therapist who has been working out of Oak West Animal Clinic for over a year now! She is incredibly talented at what she does, and we have been overjoyed to watch her work and get to know her.

🩺Judith has been an RVT since 2003 and initially worked in private and emergency medicine. After experiencing the benefits of rehab with a cat named Simon who sustained serious injuries from being beaten and thrown in a dumpster, she began her journey into rehabilitation. In 2013 she obtained her Certified Canine Rehabiliation Practitioner designation from the University of Tennesse and she hasn’t looked back since!

💙We love how passionate Judith is about rehabilitative medicine. She has said again and again that she just loves seeing the transformative effect of rehab. Watching patients who are immobile finally take their first steps, sharing the joy that owners feel while watching their pets improve, and seeing cats fall asleep at the clinic while getting lasered makes Judith fall in love with this profession all over again.

When Judith is not at work, she is spending time with her friends, family, and pets. She most recently brought a foster cat into her home to rehabilitate. When it came time for her to give the cat back up for adoption, she decided to keep him! 🥰

We are so happy to know her and work alongside her! Please join us in thanking Judith in the comments below!

🎃 Happy Halloween from all of us at Oakridge Animal Clinic! 🎃

We hope you and your furry friends have a spook-tacular day filled with treats (and no tricks)! 🐾👻 Don't forget to keep your pets safe while enjoying the festivities.

🐶🦇 Please share your pets' Halloween costumes in the comments below – we’d love to see all the adorable and spooky outfits! 🐱🎃

10/29/2024

✨ Today we’re celebrating Hannah, one of our amazing RVTs! ✨

Hannah is the newest addition to our team and we’re all incredibly grateful to work alongside her. Hannah has been an RVT for the last 10 years, practicing in emergency medicine and at a specialty clinic focusing on feline hyperthyroid treatment. She joined our team earlier this year and has been the perfect fit!

There's nothing we can say about Hannah that wouldn't be a glowing review! Hannah's kind nature, along with her calming presence, puts every pet she meets at ease. She’s always ready to jump in, lend a hand, and support us whenever needed. Her calm approach in emergency situations makes her an invaluable asset - especially when working at our urgent care clinic! Her technical expertise—from placing IV catheters to assisting in complex procedures—shows her skill and dedication. 🐶🐱❤️

Outside of work, Hannah enjoys spending quality time with her friends, family, and cats. She recently adopted a new kitty into her home!

We are so glad that Hannah chose to join our team. Please join us in thanking Hannah in the comments below! 👇

✨Today we are celebrating the RVT brain behind so much of what we do - Danika!

Danika is so incredible at everything she sets her mind to, and we are so lucky that she is on our team. She works behind the scenes to help clients on a deeper level, especially for pets with complex medical needs. She gives more one-on-one support than your average RVT can offer. Her ability to break down medical cases, work through each issue, and create a detailed dietary plan is truly remarkable.

Her passion for nutrition is next level impressive. She has such a complete understanding of how to choose the right diet for a pet with multiple medical conditions. She is endlessly investigating diet information, keeping up to date on the newest worldwide recommendations and research. Not only does she impress us with her skills in practice, but she also does presentations about nutrition at conferences! Her big brain energy is too much for us to handle! She is an incredible resource for us on a daily basis.

When Danika is not working tirelessly, she enjoys time with her friends, family, and pets! You may find Danika out exploring the world on a hike or cuddling up with her pets on any given day. We are so glad to have Danika as a part of our team! ❤

Please join us in thanking Danika in the comments below! 👇

10/26/2024

✨Today we are celebrating Shania, one of our amazing RVTs!

Shania is somebody that all of us enjoy working with immensely. She always manages to make us laugh with her hilarious way of storytelling. The joy that emanates from her when she meets an animal is overwhelmingly pure and beautiful. She truly was put on this earth to be in the presence of animals. Her heart could not be more caring and full of love for them! 🐶🐱❤

🏥Although deep love for animals is the most important part of our job (and she’s nailed that part!) Shania is also great in so many other aspects. She is organised and is able to stay on task while keeping the DVMs on task (easier said than done - sorry DVMs, we love you too). She is thorough and engaging in her appointments. Her technical skills are impressive, and her communication skills somehow even more so! She cares so profoundly about doing right by our patients and clients (sometimes to her detriment!) We love Shania and don’t know what we’d do without her!

When Shania is not at work, she enjoys spending time with her friends, family, and kitty! Her cat Tila is the light of her life. Shania lives her life to its fullest and does what makes her happy. On any given day she can be found reading a good book, hanging at a board game cafe, or even going on a wild camping adventure. She likes to keep us guessing! ☀️

Please join us in thanking Shania in the comments below! 👇

10/24/2024

✨Today we are celebrating the one and only Mandy, our longest-standing RVT!

Mandy has been working at Oakridge for 25 years, if you can believe it! She has such a deep knowledge of, and relationship with so many of our patients and clients. We sometimes have to pinch ourselves when we think about just how lucky we are to have her. ❤

🏥Mandy walks through the doors of the clinic excited every day - an obvious exaggeration.. but also pretty accurate. Her special kind of calm confidence puts all of us at ease when we get to work with her. Although she keeps us motivated and often entertained, Mandy is not a personality hire - she has insane technical skills. She can collect blood with her eyes closed (she has not tried this, but we know it’s true), keeps her cool during emergencies, and makes anaesthetic look easy (surprise - it’s not!)

Mandy has many passions when it comes to veterinary medicine. First and foremost, all things dental🦷. She has immersed herself into the world of dental care, learning everything she can about how best to care for our pets' teeth, as well as doing regular CE to improve her dentistry skills. And it’s paid off, since she’s basically the F1 driver of dentistries, cleaning teeth with precision, speed and accuracy. She is also passionate about urgent care and anaesthesia - all of the high adrenaline parts of this job!

🐱🐶When Mandy is not at work, she enjoys spending time with her friends, family, and pets. In the summer you will find her doing all of the running events available! She is absolutely incredible in all parts of her life. We are so grateful that you are on our team, Mandy!

Please join us in thanking Mandy in the comments below! 👇

🎂 Happy Birthday Bentley!!

This sweet girl turned 7 years old last week. We are excited every time she walks through the door, with her happy and gentle personality! And although we missed out on her puppy years (she would have been the cutest little babe), we have loved being a part of her life over the past 5 years! 🩷

Join us in celebrating Bentley's birthday in the comments below! 👇🍰

10/22/2024

✨Today we are celebrating Katie, one of our fabulous RVTs!

🩷Katie is truly amazing at what she does. She has a special eye for detail that would blow you away. Seriously - her record keeping does not miss - and though that may not sound glamorous, in the medical field reading great records is like jumping into a pool on a hot summer's day. It’s like eating a peach that just became ripe and you know by tomorrow it would have been rotten. It brings us joy, is what I’m saying. Katie, in turn, brings us joy.

Now we’ve gotten a little off track, and I haven’t even gotten into what makes Katie truly special. Katie has a passion for feline medicine that knows no bounds. She LOVES these little creatures so deeply. Katie is a massive proponent of fear free cat handling and is always sharing new tidbits of information that she has learned through various courses. She gets excited when she has a day filled with cat appointments and is always overjoyed to talk with owners about feline enrichment activities! 🐱

Katie is someone we know we can rely on, have a laugh with (her dry humour is killer!) and chat about all things cat. She has fantastic technical skills and a calming presence. She can be trusted with any task you ask of her. She has a warm heart, and she really cares - about us and her patients. We are so grateful to have her on our team!

When she is not at work, Katie enjoys spending time with her family, friends, and two kitties! She has a bengal kitten named Bengie and a domestic long hair kitty named Mini Me. They keep her busy (especially little Bengie with his endless energy!)

We love you Katie! Join us in thanking Katie in the comments below! 👇

10/17/2024

✨Today we are celebrating our incredible RVT, Dani!

Dani is like that fun aunt you get to see at family events, and if she isn’t there, Thanksgiving is just a little less exciting. We know that when Dani works, there is going to be a lot of laughter, storytelling, and fun conversations. It also helps that she is exceptional at her job!

🐶 Dani has an unbelievable amount of passion for helping animals. She is always excited to work on emergencies, spend her days doing anesthetic (even for the most critical cases), or save an animal she has found on the side of the road (seriously, ask her about her most recent skunk story). Dani is a massive advocate for appropriate pain relief and fear free medicine, and she truly treats every pet in her care as her own. She is often the RVT who will be there for staff outside of clinic hours to help with their unwell pets. We always have faith in her to have our pets' best interest in mind!

When she is not at work, Dani enjoys spending time with her family, friends, and house full of animals! She has chickens, a horse, dogs, and cats, and loves every minute she shares with them! Dani also enjoys going on adventures - concerts, hiking, you name it (where she finds the time, we will never know). She even brings her kitty, Stuart, everywhere in his trusty backpack!

We love you Dani! Join us in thanking Dani in the comments below!

10/10/2024

✨Today we are celebrating Heather, one of our phenomenal RVTs!

Heather is a beautiful soul whose presence at the clinic always brings us comfort and joy. She is a constant, reliable source of knowledge and compassion. She moves through her days with an enviable ease, even when she may internally feel otherwise! She makes us laugh, is the first to help when needed, and always uses her magical mama maternal powers to take care of us. She’s just a good seed! ❤

The gentleness that Heather brings into this job every day is so admirable. She has a calming energy that makes every pet feel more comfortable. Heather can also just do anything she puts her mind to. She is incredible at cytology (even the obscure stuff), skilled at anesthesia (her diligence is amazing to experience in person - sorry you can’t, but at least your pets get to!), and will always step up to do the dreaded a**l gland expression (which she does not dread - maybe something to speak about in therapy).

When she is not at the clinic creating angelic harmony, Heather enjoys spending time with her family, friends, and kitties. She adopted 2 cats last year, Daniel and Max, who are MADLY in love with each other (as evidenced on slide #3). 🐱❤

Happy RVT month, Heather! Please help us in thanking her in the comments below! 👇

✨Today we are celebrating Miranda, our incredible manager! Miranda is an absolute BOSS in every way - she is an outstanding RVT, a caring and highly effective manager, and has an unmatched passion for veterinary medicine. We are so lucky to have this absolute powerhouse as our manager!

🏥Emergency veterinary medicine is where Miranda has spent the majority of her career, and it shows. Her demeanour during an emergency situation is poetically calm. She can place an IV catheter in her sleep, remember every medical protocol known to man, and communicate to pet owners with deep compassion and clarity. She has been known to jump in on complex medical and surgical cases, which has been truly life changing for those pets and owners. ❤️

As if emergency medical cases and managing three veterinary clinics is not enough, Miranda also frequently rehabilitates animals at home. She loves taking home neonates who need to be bottle fed or providing medical care to sick chickens (no, we do not see chickens - she is a farm girl!) Her true love for animals radiates from her on a daily basis. The animals and people who have been touched by her are so incredibly fortunate!

When Miranda is not at work, she enjoys spending time with her pets, friends, and family. She often travels up north to visit her family, and sometimes brings her whole crew! Her family and pets mean the absolute world to her 🩷

🌍Today is World Rabies Day 🦠

Rabies is a deadly virus that can affect all mammals, including humans, and it is almost always fatal once symptoms appear. This month there was a human rabies case in Ontario due to exposure to a bat. The best way to protect your pet, family, and community is through vaccination.

🐾 Here’s how you can help prevent rabies:

- Vaccinate your pets regularly against rabies.
- Avoid contact with wild animals.
- Keep pets indoors or supervised to reduce their exposure.
- Report stray animals to local authorities.
- Seek immediate medical attention if bitten or scratched by an animal.

Together, we can work to eliminate rabies and protect both people and pets from this preventable disease! ❤️

🐱 Have you ever seen a happier cat during a blood collection? This is Max! He needed some blood collected but was not a big fan of needles (who is, amiright?) Luckily he is ✨highly✨ food motivated and LOVED the creamy treat we offered him. Sometimes when it comes to fear free medicine we need a few extra hands, a bit of calm, and lots of patience. This is something we are more than willing to give to our patients, as it means they have a positive experience! Maybe human medicine can adopt some fear free techniques.. I wouldn’t mind snacking on a slice of pizza🍕 while my blood is being collected! What would your food of choice be?

It is so important to provide adequate enrichment for our feline friends! Indoor cats can get bored without proper mental stimulation. This can lead to behavioural issues, which we want to avoid at all costs.🐾 Here are just a few necessities to keep your kitties happy at home: ✨ VERTICAL SPACE: Cats feel safest when they are high off the ground. This is easily accomplished with a 'cat tree' or even shelving on the walls. Window sills are also fun for them, as they offer a wildlife show of squirrels and birds! ✨ HUNTING: It is important for cats to be able to use their hunting instincts, even in the home. Providing them with a 'treat ball', hiding food around the house, and using interactive toys are just a few ways you can do this. It is important for cats to end every play session with a reward, such as a treat, or sinking their teeth in to a stuffy! This is why laser pointers are not ideal toys, unless followed by a delicious snack. ✨ SCRATCHING POSTS: It is very beneficial for our cats to use a scratching post. Scratching helps to remove the dead outer layer of the nail. It also stretches their legs/toes, and just feels good! Studies have shown that cats prefer rope, vertical scratching posts that are at least 3 feet tall. Truly any scratching post that keeps your cat away from the furniture is a good one! These are just a few of the many ways we can offer environment enrichment for our cats. Share your happy cat tips & tricks in the comments below! 🐱 #catsofinstagram #environmentalenrichment #happycat #vetmed #veterinary #veterinarymedicine #veterinarytechnician #vetlife #519london #519ldn #519local #519londonontario #londonontario #smallbusiness #vetclinic #oakridgeanimalclinic #oakwestanimalclinic
