๐ŸŽ‰ Say hello to Nutella! ๐ŸŽ‰
This sweet girl got her name thanks to the awesome community at Barktober Bash this past weekend! Guests submitted their favorite name ideas, and the OLACC team voted โ€” Nutella was the clear winner! ๐Ÿถโค๏ธ

Nutella is as sweet as her name! Sheโ€™s:
โœ… Dog-friendly (medium to large pups preferred โ€” sheโ€™s got energy!)
โœ… Kid-approved โ€” loves running and playing with children
โœ… People-loving โ€” always ready for cuddles and pets
โœ… Knows basic commands but continued training will be needed

Sheโ€™ll thrive with an active family thatโ€™s ready to keep up with her fun personality and continue her training (both mental and physical).

Nutella is ready for her forever home โ€” could it be yours? ๐Ÿพ

Help Nutella find her furever family and share this post, this sweet girl is anxiously waiting to start her new life!

No Kitten Around Rescue needs our communityโ€™s support now more than ever. On October 2nd, the rescue suffered a devastating house fire that tragically claimed the lives of several beloved rescue and resident cats, while others remain in critical condition. This rescue has dedicated countless hours and endless love to saving vulnerable cats and kittensโ€”and now itโ€™s our turn to help them heal and rebuild. Every donation, big or small, will go directly toward medical care, supplies, and recovery efforts.
Other ways you can help include donating supplies such as blankets, food, litter, toys, and more. They lost everything in the fire, so anything truly helps.
This cause is especially close to our hearts, as the founder of No Kitten Around Rescue shares a personal connection with one of our very own staff members. Together, we can bring hope back to No Kitten Around Rescue. No Kitten Around Rescue

If you wish to make a donation, a GoFund me will be shared shortly! Any blankets, food, litter, etc. can be dropped off at OLACC or contact Cassie on the No Kitten Around Rescue FB Page. ๐Ÿ˜Š

Sommer is one of our lovely Veterinary Receptionists! Sommer started at the clinic as a kennel attendant before being promoted to reception. She is one of the first people so many of our clients see and communicate with, and weโ€™re excited to share more about her.

Sommer is currently enrolled in college at Penn Foster, working toward her goal of becoming a Veterinary Assistantโ€”taking one step closer to a lifelong career in animal care. She has loved animals her entire life, and that passion has guided her toward a future devoted to helping them. When sheโ€™s not working or studying, she enjoys spending time with her boyfriend and family, exploring new UTV trails, fishing, days on the lake, and hunting. She also enjoys cozy fall evenings by a bonfire and looks forward to the quiet beauty of wintertime, especially spending time outdoors in the snow.

Life at home is lively thanks to Sommerโ€™s two beloved dogs. Willow, a playful German Shepherd mix, is always ready for adventure, while Oakley, a Chesapeake Bay Retriever, is loyal, affectionate, and completely obsessed with muddy water. Animals have always been at the heart of Sommerโ€™s lifeโ€”and now, theyโ€™re at the center of her future.

We enjoy the dedication and positive attitude that Sommer upholds while at work. She is a team player and is always willing to step in to help. ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿพ
