Everyone meet Spooky 👻 BACH’s February Montly Spawtlight winner! 😻
Spooky, or he is called my his humans Spookems, is a 6 year old black domestic short hair cat! 🐈‍⬛

Mr. Spooky doesn’t have a favorite toy 🎾 as he doesn’t exactly enjoy playing with any toys!
Since he isn’t a fan of toy, I’m sure you’ve all guessed what his favorite activity is… if you haven’t I’ll just tell you…
It’s is sleeping 😴 💤 🥱!

Spooky’s favorite place to be is simply anywhere his humans are! ❤️

What would his purrfect day be, you might ask? Well Spooky is truly a man of leisure and his purrfect day would just be one full of pets and snuggles from his humans! 😻😽

As Pet of the Month, Spooky gets a $25 credit at Bismarck Animal Clinic. This end of the month drawing is chosen at random from everyone who has an appointment with us at BACH!

Who will be next months winner? 🤔

Everyone meet Koda BACH’s first Montly Spawtlight winner of 2025! 😻

Koda, or as he is known to his family Mr. Kitterson, is a 5 year old domestic short hair! 🐈
Mr. Koda’s favorite toy to play with is his fish 🎣 on a stick, but his favorite activity is to try and chase the dog 🐶 around the house! 🏠

If he’s not playing or chasing the dog his favorite place to be is his cat tree! 🐈‍⬛ 🌳
What would his purrfect day be, you might ask? Well, it would start with him waking up, followed by a mid morning nap of course! After resting he would go outside to watch the squirrels 🐿️ at the squirrel feeder, and of course sneak up on the dog 🐕! After all that fun he would end his day with a long nap 💤!

As Pet of the Month, Koda gets a $25 credit at Bismarck Animal Clinic. This end of the month drawing is chosen at random from everyone who has an appointment with us at BACH!

Routine physical exams are great for checking your pet’s heart, lungs, eyes, and ears, but what about their internal health?

Annual blood panels help us assess internal health including liver and kidney function, metabolic disease, and blood counts. Diagnostic tests provide valuable insight into changes in their health over time and allow us to identify illnesses early which can lead to faster treatment and often a better prognosis

💉 Schedule your pet’s wellness exam with us so we can run blood panels and help keep your pet healthy as can be!

With the holiday season in full effect, we know that there may be treats on your pet’s wish list. We also know that you are likely tired of the toothbrushing battle. Which is why we recommend dental treats!
Dental treats are a great way to reduce the severity of periodontal disease. We urge our pet parents to look for the VOHC Seal of Acceptance and to avoid hard treats such as synthetic or natural bones.

The American Animal Hospital Association has now recognized Leptospirosis as a "Core Vaccine" for canines. "Core Vaccinations" are considered requirements for pets based on AAHA's guidelines and research. Other Core Vaccinations include Canine Distemper/Parvovirus/Adenovirus/Parainfluenza and Rabies.

Leptospirosis is zoonotic, meaning this bacteria can actually transfer from animals to humans. This vaccine is available at our hospital and our staff would be more than happy to give more information on the disease.

Please read the following articles that dive a bit deeper into Leptospirosis and what exactly this bacteria inflicts:

Tis' the season for joy, cheer, and...vaccinations! 💉
Your pet's health is the best gift you can give this holiday season. Schedule their annual check-up or vaccinations today.

The holiday season is now in full swing, which brings excitement, but for male cats, it can also bring extra stress—and with it, a higher risk of Feline Lower Urinary Tract Disease (FLUTD).

If your cat seems to be urinating more frequently, straining, or showing signs of discomfort, it could be a sign of FLUTD.
Simple steps like creating a quiet, cozy space or using pheromone sprays, can help reduce stress.

Our clinic is here to help! We can provide a thorough review of your cat’s health and offer guidance on environmental changes to keep them calm. Contact us today!
