Today is National Pet Memorial day, and in honor of this day we wanted to share the story of an extra special cat that is dear to our hearts here at Gill Bright Animal Hospital. His name was Strut.

Strut was sweet man with an old soul. You could find him patrolling the conference room, lounging and napping in the sun, or just vibing as he would often do for over 10 years.

He came to our clinic after a Good Samaritan found him and knew he needed medical attention. We found he had a fractured leg that was very infected and had to amputate. While he had a rough start, he quickly found his place in the clinic and always seemed to take things in stride. He didn't let the loss of one of his legs stop him from exploring and jumping up on laps for some pets and scratches. He also knew how to takes things easy and always reminded us that cat naps are good for the soul. He took his final nap May 9th, 2025 surrounded by the warmth and love of our team. It was a sad day, but we look back fondly on the times we shared with this special little man.

If you have any special animals that you live on in your heart, please share their pictures and stories with us.💖

Today we are celebrating 8 years with Dr. Thibodeaux!🥳

Dr. Thibodeaux is always ready to help pets in needs of some TLC, and his main role at Gill Bright is as Medial Director!
As the captain of our ship it is his job to make sure our protocols and policies are top notch, and align with our mission of bringing the best in pet care to SWLA. He also works hard on making sure everyone on the Gill Bright Team has a chance to sharpen their skills and continuously learn and grow no matter what role they play.
It's a tough job but he does it well, and we wouldn't be the clinic we are today without him. So thank you Dr. Thibodeaux, for all that you do!

Want to get to know Dr. Thibodeaux a bit better?

❓Which animal’s personality do you think best resembles your own?
👨🏻‍⚕️I've always been partial to Boston Terriers. My childhood pet Scooter was always willing to help and had a fun side, and at the same time helped us work our cows. He was a jack of all trades and I guess I'm a bit like my boston's!

❓What did the journey to veterinarian and then medical director look like?
👨🏻‍⚕️I'm blessed to have found a profession I love. Being a veterinarian has been a blessing, and I look forward to practicing for decades to come. As medical director, I get to help mentor veterinarians as well as maintain and improve the quality of care for our clinic and our community. I have a passion for helping others, and as medical director I get the opportunity to put that passion into action.

❓What is your favorite way to de-stress after a long day here at the hospital?
👨🏻‍⚕️There's nothing better than getting home and being greeted by my wife and kids. Seeing the smile on their faces is the best. Otherwise I'm on our cattle farm building fence or working cattle. Getting outside and putting in work has always helped me re-set to take on new challenges.
