🌮Let's taco- bout the fundraiser 🍻 🐈 in THREE days. We are hosting another trivia benefit for Halfway Home Rescue Inc 's sick pets in need.

It hasn't been easy for the rescue, they are putting on a brave face but besides the usual regular vet appointments most days of the week, they've been battling a bad break out of cat upper respiratory infection of the hoarding case (to be expected but still SUCKS! And takes several ADDITIONAL hours to clean to reduce spread🧽🧴 and had costed several lives), not to mention many sad emergencies. Several times a week for WEEKS our doctor meets them late night or on weekends for an active crisis.💔💔 Hoarding pets are SICK and fragile.😷 They were born in FILTH, have no immunity from neglected medical care/shots and were allowed to inbreed.... 'hills Have Eyes' type of hell.

This THURSDAY, join us in helping raise money so the rescue can contribute fighting the good fight.

We promise another fun night- prizes, Easter egg fun, raffles, rescue merch 👕,🧺 Easter baskets, special margarita for the cause 🍹🍹. 7p at Los Mariachis Wallingford .🎤🐶😺🎤

🩺Happy Marvelous Case Monday!🩻 Meet Dutch who was saved from a NY pound when there was no interest. 😔 He was diagnosed with sarcoptes mange which can be contagious to others, including us. They often get this from wildlife that has been tramping in our yard at ungodly hours. We see it commonly in the warmer months. Thankfully the pets aren't contagious long after treatment starts.

We switched up some of his initial NY treatments by removing some harsh medicines and replacing them with gentler ones, adding supplements and balancers for the body. So far he's doing well and his skin is responding well.🤗 We are hoping for a full recovery, which we've accomplished before! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽

This arrived out of the blue giving us the warm and fuzzies.🥰🥰 It went into the "Love Fund" account. What's that you asked❓Any donations that aren't for a particular pet or client, go to an account that takes care of found strays, dumped pets or animals surrenders. Although the doctor's services are aLwAyS courtesy for the above cases, we put the Love Funds towards lab work, supplies and medicine which is NOT free, even for us.

Thank you again for thinking kindly of us and donating for the next animal in need.😻 We and them are grateful.

🤗Happy PUPdate!🤗 Ms. Zara, one of the mastiff puppies that Project Precious Rescue, Inc. took in, stopped in for a nurse visit the other day. She's doubled her weight and her body posture/walking has normalized- no more "runt" look! She got a baby vaccine booster and started big girl heartworm preventatives.💗

Her brothers got adopted, maybe she's next.🤞🏽🙏🏽

King: I'll remember this next time you charmingly offer "go for a ride?" on your lunch break. I thought we were going to do cool stuff, this is complete BS and it's going to cost you two more lunch breaks!!! 😤😤

King doesn't appreciate his freedom vibes being flattened by towers of trays for Halfway Home Rescue Inc . We explained we have to help the kitties in need but he ain't havin it!!!

🐶King, a 2 year old Dane-staffy X is up for adoption. He's healthy, fully up to date, fixed and is dog friendly.

🙏🏽🤞🏽Please contact us for more information or set up a meet and greet.

Babies everywhere!😿 In drawers, in cabinets, on the stairs (VERY SERIOUS 🆘 sign from moms).☹️ Some found dead.🥺 Some died shortly after rescue.😢 Some are still hanging on for dear life. Most are being mothered by KITTENS under a year old themselves. All which is a recipe for disaster. 💔💔💔

A (surviving) litter of 4 costs around $1,500 pending NO illness or surprises, to prepare them for adoption at the four-months of age.😬💰😬💰 Please consider supporting Halfway Home Rescue Inc 's cause to help these unfortunate 50+ souls at the hoarding house.

Next week, we volunteered to host another trivia to fundraise- we hope to see you at Los Mariachis Wallingford . 🎤🐶😺🎤

Sadly, an uptick (in already pretty bad conditions compared to other medical fields) of bad behavior is happening. 📢📢A little PSA to save us from totally going looney:

We recently dealt with a person, NOT a client, as a favor for someone else.

We rearranged our schedule to set up a SAME day appointment time to meet in order to HELP this person as they were getting "rid" of puppies.😑

Not only did they not show up but when we called to ensure everything was ok, they were unapologetic and then lied about being on their way. An hour later we contacted them, now aggravated for OBVIOUS reasons.

The person was offended that we were honest regarding the situation being disrespectful and aggravating so they left a retaliatory review. 🙄🙄🙄

As a reminder, we are an animal hospital. This isn't the Ritz or a spa or Burger King. We are a medical facility, not Petco, so we provide a service vs being in the hospitality industry. But for some unknown reason, vet med is vastly under valued, over worked and under paid.

We do a lot, for a lot of people, but there are limits, as in any aspect of life. The Golden Rule very much applies here so if someone oversteps boundaries, yes, they will be reminded we have protocols and procedures. It's not that hard to have common decency and manners. If it is, please move on with your search for a place you can walk all over and treat like garbage as that is NOT us, nor should it be anywhere else. We are not indentured slaves (although it feels like it far too often).

We don't even need kind, honestly we'd be over the moon to just get plain ol' civility.

👀Look at the deploable conditions that the 50+ cats had to be born and live in at the hoarding house. Thank God Halfway Home Rescue Inc pulled them out!!! 🤢😿🤢😿🤢 Poor cats.

These are terrible conditions for any creature. The cats are sick, have had no previous vet care, not fixed, unsocialized and in**ed so many have abnormalities.💔 Read: very costly to do the right thing for them.

Just as the rescue was trying to get on their feet with chipping away at their ER bill and Twinkle's bill, they were pleaded to help with this house of nightmares.

🙏🏾🤞🏽Please help us help them. Come out to support at trivia night next week at Los Mariachis Wallingford as we are hosting again so they can put the money it costs for a MC towards one of these 50 cats. 🎤

🩺Happy Mysterious Case Monday! 🩻 Luna was seen at the ER who discussed flea or food allergy. We saw her as a second opinion and immediately suspected ringworm because of the location and appearance.

That 'cigarette ash’ scaling is classic in cats with ringworm and usually is on the head, neck or front arms. But don't freak! It can resolve spontaneously as well as there are several ways to rid it quicker inexpensively in the vast majority of patients. In fact, with an environment deep clean and OTC meds, Luna did fine and is over it.🤗🤗

We've had people try to get rid of their cats for this- no no NO! 😬 That's (callous) over kill.🥺 Deep breaths- it will go away!!!

Whatcha excited about?!? Oh yeah, it's FriYAY! 🎉 Just King and Dottie having a blast, for no reason, which is the best reason. 🩷 🤣 King has been here since July, and at the pound for several months before then. 💔💔 His forever owner has to be out there somewhere! 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼 -Neutered 2 year old, Dane-pit mix -Fully vetted -Loves the car, outside, snuggling, respectful dogs -Quick learner & knows basic obedience Email or call us to set up a meet-n- greet. Previous pit bull experience needed. 👎🏼to cats🐈 #adoptdontshop #adoptLocal #pitbullLove

Come on down! We have started a "Wag Sale" (fundraising tag sale for a shelter pup in need). Come support!!! 🛏️ beds for all sizes 🥣 bowls & puzzle feeders - carriers 🐈 cat trees & scratching posts - collars & halters 👗TONS of cute clothes ⭐✨ ⭐ ✨ ALL proceeds go to Twinkle who was DUMPED by her owner, PARALYZED so she was going to be put down. Halfway Home Rescue Inc took her and was compassionate enough to allow us to see if working overtime (medicine, physical therapy, massage, acupuncture) with her daily could get her leg function back. But it ain't cheap nor easy for the rescue and LORD knows they have their hands full with sick pets bills lately. 💔💔 Please tell friends/ family- we hope this can be a success for Twinkle (more about her unfortunate story is on our and Halfway Home Rescue's page). #DontAbandonPets #CommitOrResponsiblyRehome #mayLifeTreatYouTheWayYouTreatAnimals #neverSayNever

🩺Happy Marvelous Case Monday!🩻 This video of a 12 year old employee pet that had both of his ACLs fixed a few years ago, is after he was started on Librela. He was slow to jump, missing the bed, fell a few times and was less active. His situation is like so many other senior dogs. Thankfully the video illustrates similar wonderful stories we've heard from owners whose pets' lives have improved dramatically from Librela. 💝 As we age, humans and animals experience arthritis, especially if active, overweight, had injury before, or born with a "non perfect" body build. That describes almost everyone. 😂 This monthly injection "blocks" inflammation and we've heard great results from ease with stairs or jumping in the car to longer walks or more playful and energetic.🥰 We love hearing these responses! They make our hearts melt. If your older pet is "slowing down", don't just assume it's age! 😢 Call us to discuss options to give your pet back some fun and happiness. They have a cat one too! 😻 #seniorSmarts #treatThemToHappiness #makeGoldenYearsGolden

Interactive toys and puzzle feeders are a great way to increase stimulation, enrichment and bonding with your pet. Our blind puppy foster aced lunch- who needs eyes when you've got a big ol brain and great schnoz? 🧠👃🏼 Ricochet is still up for adoption- check out Perfect Imperfections for more details. #adoptdontshop #pittielove #specialNeedRescues

Is there a kitten maximum screen time like children?? 🤣🤣The kitten loves action on the TV! 🎬 🎞 Sadly only a few interested people came forward but none stuck, please share to get her a furever home.
