Having a “Go Bag,” containing supplies for a several-day period, can help you be prepared to go without emergency services during a disaster.

Last week's Kitten Shower was a success! All the kittens got adopted and we helped raise funds to help even more kittens because kitten season isn't over. We saw several of our wonderful clients and met a super cool "catnamedcalvin".

Every year, from spring through late summer, the Austin Humane Society is inundated with hundreds of teeny, tiny kittens. The shelter staff and dedicated foster caregivers work hard around the clock to make sure these kittens grow big and strong.

We are proud to partner with the shelter and to help sponsor life-saving events like this. For more information on how to help or get involved, check out the AHS website: https://austinhumanesociety.org/get-involved/

Have you ever wondered why vets are so serious about your pet's teeth? It's because dental disease can lead to increased numbers of bacteria in the mouth and oral tissues, which can enter the bloodstream and cause distant or systemic effects. This occurs through both the actions of the bacteria and the body's natural immune response. The organs most prone to the spread of oral bacteria are the heart, liver, and kidneys. It's crucial to maintain your pet's oral health to ensure their overall well-being.Read the full article at http://tinyurl.com/3439wm3j
