Had fun with the team today doing a Tie Dye Party over lunch! Getting ready for our Tie Dye Spirit Day on July 8th! How are you getting ready for Spirit Week?

Ear Mites!!

We found some ear mites today in one of our patients! What are ear mites? Teeny, tiny infectious organisms that can look like ticks, that can be seen under the microscope. Pets can get ear mites when they have physical contact with a furry friend who already has them. Ear mites can cause ear infections and skin disease, but can be treated with a topical ear medication.

Merry Christmas from all of us at Eastown! We love taking care of (and taking pictures of) your pets! ❤️

Check out these creepy crawlies! Ear mites are most commonly found in cats, and can be transmitted via contact and cause ear infections. Mites can be easily treated with an ear medication. When treated, this kitty will feel so much better! 😊
