Did you hear? IT'S PHOTO CONTEST TIME!

REMINDER: THERE IS NO FEE FOR THE PHOTO CONTEST! If you are asked for your card information it is a SCAM and we will not announce the winners until AFTER the 31st!

Last year we hosted a Facebook photo contest. The winning photos were printed on canvas, and have been displayed throughout the clinic ever since! We have LOVED seeing these gorgeous pets every day, but it's time for some new faces! We are excited to announce our FIFTH Facebook Photo Contest!

PHOTO CONTEST RULES:
• Comment on THIS post with a high quality, high resolution photo of your pet(s). No people in the pictures, please. **Photos that don't meet these criteria will be automatically eliminated from consideration!!**
• The deadline for submission is January 31, 2025. Winning photos will be printed on a canvas and hung in the clinic for display.
• When it is time to redecorate next year, we’ll have a new contest and the previous winners will be able to take their canvases home!
• Avoid submitting tightly cropped photos as we will likely have to crop photos to fit whichever size canvas we choose.
• You are welcome to solicit "likes" for your photo submissions and that will help get our attention, but the final selections are entirely at the discretion of clinic staff.
Show us your best pet photos and help us spice the clinic up a bit! We can't wait to see your furry friends at their most gorgeous! Previous winners will be contacted after the new canvases arrive to take their pet's canvas home!

Is It Worth It, edition 2. (There are so many, many, MANY pet products on the market with so many varied and questionable claims. One of our hobbies is to walk the pet aisles and pick on products. We share our thoughts here to hopefully demystify some of the mysteries.)

PrettyLItter. This litter changes color when blood or increased or decreased acidity is detected in your cat's urine.

This isn't for everyone, but I do think that this product can be useful for the right cats. It is expensive - $30 for 10lbs of litter, where you could get 35lbs of just average looking litter for about $18 (so $3/lb rather than $0.50/lb).It sounds like decent litter (lightweight, clumping and unscented are generally preferred by cats) and there are no outlandish claims on the bag (except for "World's Smartest Cat Litter" but that just seems like a clever catchphrase so we'll give it a pass. This litter could be useful for cats with known histories of urinary stones, bladder inflammation and diabetes, as it might help you detect flare-ups of problems sooner than you would otherwise.

For financial reasons alone, I wouldn't recommend PrettyLitter for healthy cats without known conditions. It's not going to hurt anything, but sometimes bodies don't follow the rules and it could be that your cat's urine is especially alkaline one day, or there's a trace amount of blood in their urine - that's not necessarily reason enough to worry or go running to the vet. Realistically I'd recommend just buying good old cheap, clumping, low-dust, unscented litter unless you find that your cat really does have a chronic condition where early detection might be beneficial.

We hope that helps. Any questions, please ask!

Ms. Vienna is a beautiful Dalmatian, but compared to other breeds, we see so few of them!
