This double-trouble duo know how to keep Dr. Susan on her toes! 💚

"People often ask how I can tell them apart, and the answer is actually quite simple: one has four legs and the other has three! 😊 They were found together as kittens near the freeway at Vantage, WA, and one of them had a mangled front leg, presumably after getting hit by a car. The adoption agency amputated the leg and we adopted them at about four months of age. My children named them Neo (after Mr Anderson in the Matrix) and IHOP (get it? That’s what I get for letting my kids name them)."

This week is Veterinary Practice Manager Appreciation Week! A time to say thank you to the fearless leader that helps keep our team rolling. We are SO incredibly lucky to have Shawnee on our side.

She has been with us from the very start and we couldn’t do what we do without her! She is always there to help solve any problem and somehow manages to keep us all in line and smiling.

Whether she’s helping a client, supporting the team, or tackling the millions of little things no one else knows about, Shawnee handles it all with patience, humor, and love.

Thank you, Shawnee, for everything you do — not just this week, but every single day. You make our practice better in every possible way, and we’re so lucky to have you. 💚🐾

Compassion 4 Paws is proud to offer Comfort Care! 🐾

What is Comfort Care? Dr. Sara and her team provide personalized comfort care tailored to each pet's specific needs, working closely with the family to create a plan that fits. Since every pet is unique, each care plan is customized, sometimes including medications for pain and nausea as well as nutritional advice. Being in the pet's home allows us to better observe their true comfort or pain levels. Additionally, in-home visits give us the opportunity to suggest improvements to their environment. We will also perform a quality-of-life assessment during the visit, equipping you with the tools to evaluate your pet’s discomfort and help you decide when the time is right to say goodbye. 🌈

For questions or for more information on our Comfort Care consultations, please visit our website or reach out to speak with a Care-Coordinator. 🩵

Get to know your C4P pets! 🐾

Dewey is Care Coordinator Hannah's boy with one brain cell! 😻

"Oh, my precious Dewey. It is so rare to meet an animal, or human for that matter, that you know in an instant was meant to be with you.

After losing my feline soulmate, we took some time before we were ready to open our home to a new one. I was working my way through the shelter pages and saw Dewey. He wasn’t anything that was on my list, but there was just something about him, so I kept his page open to show my husband later. Before I could do that, my neighbor texts me - she has a friend that works at a rescue and they have an amazing boy that keeps getting passed over because he’s fat. Turns out that boy was Dewey!! That was enough for me to know that he was the 1.

Dewey is absolutely my husband’s cat though. There must have been some sort of invisible string tying them together. That shy boy wanted nothing to do with me but couldn’t take his eyes off my husband on the way to the wheel they had, making sure to ignore me and headbutt my husband on his way. We brought him home a few days later and everything has changed.

He’s a VERY social boy, LOVES when visitors come over so he can show them how he runs on his wheel at home or so he can get his “uppies” (shoulder time) from someone new. And, oooooh boy, does he LOVE to talk!

He brought our home from the loudest silence to pure joy. We were supposed to find each other and I’m pretty sure Dom had a hand in it. Thank you for picking us, Dewey!!"

"Just when it seems you can’t take anymore, you do
Is that for me or is it for you
For me, I would guess, from stoic you
Unconditionally

Your love and trust are undying
They are met sometimes with inconsolable crying
You do the comforting, no denying
Unconditionally

Is this what you would expect
It’s your beautiful soul, I suspect, this interpretation you would wholly reject
Unconditionally

My heart breaks and is simultaneously filled
with the purest of love that you have instilled
Without need or want or will
Unconditionally

The very part of my heart that you took on
Has somehow grown leaps and bounds beyond
No limits on friendship, companionship and bond
Unconditionally

I will not say goodbye, but see you again
By my side and in my heart until the end
Your wings unfurl and into the stratosphere you ascend.
Unconditionally"

Fly high, sweet Filbert 🤎🤍
