Cottonwood Animal Clinic

Cottonwood Animal Clinic Welcome to Cottonwood Animal Clinic where we look forward to helping you with your animals’ health But sometimes you have questions, and that’s where we fit in.
(80)

We understand that you care very much for your animals, and we want you to know that we look forward to partnering with you in this endeavor. You know that you and the people around you tend to function better when you eat well, take some time to exercise and reduce your risk of dangerous conditions, for instance you put on sunscreen when you are going to be exposed to the sun. You realize what yo

u need to do to take care of yourself, and you also want to do what you can to take care of your animals, too. When you have questions about a vaccination schedule for your pet or for your herd, we are here for you. When you have questions about the nutritional needs of any of your animals in their various stages of life, we are here for you. Even when you do the best you can, things happen. We want to partner with you in navigating those hard times with your animals in providing various treatment options and then supporting you the best we can through it all. Over the past four decades a few things at the clinic have changed. It has grown, a smaller percentage of the staff is actually family, and technology has greatly improved. The one thing that has not changed is that we still look forward to seeing you and your animals visiting us at the clinic.

Lots of really good guesses!

ANSWER to our earlier post: these 3 weigh 9lbs 9oz (9.56 pounds) which means each of them has an average weight of 3 pounds and 3 ounces.

We just had to slow down a moment to share these adorable Yorkipoo puppies with you! These little sweeties are 10 weeks old, they are happy and healthy, and they visited today for their 2nd round of vaccines! They will be even happier when they find their forever homes!

Until then, can you guess how much 3 Yorkipoo puppies weigh all together? They are 10 weeks and 2 days old!

When we walk through the dog kennel AKA The Barking Lot here at Cottonwood Animal Clinic, some of our patients remind us it is HOWL-O-WEEN today.

Our staff would LOVE to see pictures 👇👇👇 of your pets in their costumes...if that is something that your pet doesn't mind you doing! We understand that causes some pets unnecessary anxiety, and we get that. Post pics of your pets that don't mind it! We want to see!! 👏👏👏

There are many things to learn working as a receptionist in a mixed-animal practice, and we are willing to train the right person who wants to learn all things mixed-animal reception work.

The clinic is closed today while we are working to connect with vet students at the KSU Vet Med Career fair this morning. Cowley County has lots to offer with small town charm, and we happen to believe it is a great place to live.

Today is National Black Cat Appreciation Day, and we can’t help but think that our beloved Bernie was definitely one of the best.

Bernie passed January 2022, but if you were a client at Cottonwood Animal Clinic during the years 2010-2021 when we were still at our old location, there is a good chance you saw him.

He set the bar high for all other clinic kitties. He had the perfect balance of being chill yet also letting you know he was around. He really didn’t know a stranger, and if you were sitting in the waiting room and he sensed you might need purring hug, he was right there. He was sensible enough to not get under anyone’s feet. Bernie was one of the best kitties ever!

It has been a long while since we have posted anything about vet students at Cottonwood Animal Clinic. Since February, we have hosted 6 different vet students from Oklahoma State University, Oregon State University and Kansas State University. We wish we had gotten pictures of every one, but it has been pretty busy around here, and we only have pictures of half of the students. 😿 Nevertheless, our staff enjoyed getting to know all of them and giving them opportunities to grow in their hands-on practical experiences.

One of the students sent us a very kind note saying, "Mentorship is such a big part of this [veterinary] industry, and it is obvious you all care about the next generation of veterinarians."

We are so very thankful to have our new facility that allows us to be able to offer mentorship opportunities to vet students. It takes more than just the desire/ability to mentor, working space is important, and lodging considerations are important to many vet students who are living on very frugal budgets. We are happy to offer lodging in the private studio apartment for students who are here 1-2 weeks at a time.

If you have Cottonwood Animal Clinic listed in your phone contacts, please make sure that our main line 620-442-8619, is the one you are calling or texting during business hours when you are wanting to get in touch with us.

We have additional unpublished lines that we use to call out on, and we understand that you may have one or more of those lines saved to your phone. We do not receive texts on those additional numbers.

We promise you that we are answering our phones. A lot. All. Day. Long. Our front desk staff have a tough (and exhausting) job fielding all of the phone calls from customers, checking in and checking out the clients who are standing in front of them and getting appointments set up on our text line.

If you have a second, please check that our main business line listed below is saved in your contacts and that it is the one you are calling...and especially texting. We don't receive texts from the multiple roll over lines.

We are grateful that we get to serve so many wonderful clients in the Cowley County area. Thank you for being understanding when it is extra busy around here.

Many of you may have seen the CCHS post about Red needing a new home. Red came to Cottonwood Animal Clinic because his owner unexpectedly suddenly passed away. Red’s owner loved him dearly. In the difficult hours following his owner’s passing 💔, another family member contacted us looking for help in rehoming Red.

As a courtesy to our former client and his family members, Dr. Carson neutered him, updated vaccines and dewormed him. We have a working relationship with Cowley County Humane Society, and we asked if they might be able to help us find a home for him. His post did receive quite a bit of traffic, but we want our community to know that his owner did indeed care deeply for Red.

The good news is that it appears Red has a home! ❤️ We hope our community will continue to use this energy for the good of many other pets at the Cowley County Humane Society. There are many who still need homes.

We want to remember those who have courageously sacrificed their lives for the USA.

Our clinic kitty, Kirk, is not coming in this morning. He said he's got better things than the staff to watch today.

Cottonwood Animal Clinic will be open for walk-ins on 2 different Saturdays in March. They are Saturday, March 9th and Saturday, March 23rd.

You may have noticed that we have gone to being open every other Saturday for walk-ins. We are unsure if this will be a permanent change, but for now it is what we are able to do to help our work flow processes (usually catching up on things) and it also allows for a little extra down time for our awesome staff. Saturday, January 27th, we are scheduled to be open, and we are posting the February schedule below. We understand it is a pain to try to remember which Saturdays we are open. Here are some ways we hope that will be helpful. 1) Call or text us at 620-442-8619, and one of our very helpful staff members can tell you the schedule. 2) If you aren't able to connect via phone, you can check out our Google page where we try to keep all of our special hours up-to-date. This is especially helpful on a Friday evening, and you are planning out your weekend to-do's. You would be able to see if our next business day is Saturday or Monday. 3) Share this post so that all of Facebook Land knows they can find the information on the Cottonwood Animal Clinic FB page. :)

Cottonwood Animal Clinic will closed Saturday, Jan 6th and Saturday, Jan 20th. We hope you have a beautiful, snowy weekend where you can stay inside and be cozy.

For the upcoming Labor Day weekend, Cottonwood Animal Clinic will be closed on Saturday through Monday. We will close on Friday at 5:30PM and reopen for business as usual on Tuesday, Sept 5th at 8AM. Get in touch with us soon if your pet needs a prescription refill or other attention.

Get your HOGS DOGS meal here now at our 45-year celebration event. We also have a raffle for pet food and lots of freebies!

Cottonwood Animal Clinic will be closed for walk-ins on Saturday, August 6th.

Due to the wintery forecast, we will close early at 4PM today to give staff members who live out-of-town an opportunity to get home before dark.
