Label check! 🍬🧾Sometimes our pets get into items that aren't intended for them 🤷 That's why it's so important to know what's in your cabinets! 🚫 Xylitol is a harmful chemical compound often found in gums, sugar-free foods, toothpaste, and drinks. If you use items that contain this ingredient, be sure to store them well out of your pet's reach 🐶🐱

Good morning everyone!

For those of you who do not know, February is National Pet Dental Health Month! The AVMA link attached includes good resources for learning about your pet's dental health and the importance of maintaining good dental health for our furry family members.

With this in mind, we are offering a February Dental Special! We are offering a discount on dental cleanings for the month of February. If you would like more info, help determining whether the procedure is needed for your pet, or to set up the procedure please give the office a call or send us an email. We will gladly help you determine what is best for your pet.

Don't turn your nose to your pet's bad breath! That odor might signify a serious health risk, with the potential to damage your pet's teeth and overall health.

Happy Thanksgiving to all of our friends and family! While we all love to share with our pets, remember that poultry bones, and fatty or sugary foods can cause big issues for our best friends! Keep an eye on that golden turkey and those delicious desserts if you have a known table thief 🦃🙂🐾

It's the final countdown! Today is November 7th which means cat week is coming to a close. It will be unfortunate to see it go but more pet holiday's are always just around the corner. On Oct. 18, 1963, a French cat named Félicette became the first and only feline to ever travel to space. She launched atop a Véronique AG1 rocket and flew nearly 100 miles (157 kilometers) above the Earth, where she briefly experienced weightlessness. What an astronomical achievement for cat kind. Well, I hope everyone enjoyed cat week and stay tuned for more holidays and other information.

11/06/2020

It's time to thrive because its day five! Did you know that a tower was built in Scotland for a cat named Towser in commemoration of her killing over 30,000 mice throughout her lifetime. That's a lot of mice. I guess Towser was a picky eater. Day 6 the final day of cat week will be making an appearance tomorrow so make sure you swing by.

11/06/2020

Day 4 and so much more! Domestic cats are usually considered to be quite small and dainty creatures. But did you know the world’s longest cat was a Maine C**n called Stewie, and was measured at 48.5 inches? Whereas, the record for the tallest cat belonged to Arcturus at a whopping 19.05 inches tall! Those are some big cats. Time flies but don't forget to swing by tomorrow for day five of cat week.

11/05/2020

The wait is over, day 3 of cat facts has arrived! A group of kittens is called a “kindle.” Why are they called a kindle you may ask? The use of the word "kindle" to describe a family of kittens comes from the Middle English word kindelen, meaning "to give birth to" and kindel, meaning "offspring." Personally, I think the reason should be because "They kindle a fire of love in our hearts" but I'm not in charge of scientific names. Day 4 coming tomorrow so make sure to stop by for more!

11/04/2020

Day 2 of cat facts coming at you! Did you know that a cat could be a politician? Stubbs (April 12, 1997 – July 21, 2017) was a cat who was the mayor of Talkeetna, Alaska, from July 1997 until his death. Stubbs must of been a pretty good mayor because he was in office for 20 years. Day 3 coming tomorrow so come back here to find out even more fun facts about cats. 😀

11/02/2020

First cat fact of the week is headed your way! Did you know that a domesticated house cat can travel at a top speed of approximately 31 mph (49 km) over a short distance. This speed is actually slightly faster than common dog breeds. Come back tomorrow for another cat fact in honor of national cat week!

11/01/2020

October 26th is National Mule Day. Even though an animal of this size is out of our normal range at a small hospital they still deserve our love. Its easy to forget that larger animals can be pets too! Let's never forget that animals of all shapes and sizes deserve love and happiness. So with that being said, enjoy your day mules and have a happy October 26th. 🙂

Next time you think about adding a new member to the household, consider adopting. It's amazing to see ideas like this come in to play. Just imagine the amount of people they reached and the amount of pets who found families.

It's getting colder already and we all love the holidays! Don't forget though that fleas and ticks are still a threat even through the winter. Just a friendly reminder to make sure your pets are up to date and protected!
