Microchipping pets is crucial because it provides a permanent form of identification that greatly increases the chances of being reunited if they ever get lost. Unlike collars or tags that can fall off, a microchip is safely embedded under the skin and can be scanned by shelters or veterinarians to access your contact information.

Caring for pets can get expensive; between food, medications, vet visits, toys, emergencies, and surgeries, the costs add up quickly. That financial strain can feel even heavier on single-income households, like Colby Jack’s mom, a new dedicated teacher helping shape the next generation. At Anicira, we firmly believe that pet parenting shouldn’t be a financial burden.

“Anicira has been a Godsend. As a single doggy mama on a new teacher’s salary, I didn’t know how I was going to be able to afford Colby’s surgery. Thank God for people like all of you. Not only was Colby’s surgery made a lot more affordable for me, I could not have asked for a better experience or team for my beloved furbaby,” she shared.

Nearly two months ago, Colby suffered a serious injury while out on a spring hike. He needed an FHO (femoral head osteotomy) surgery to recover. On top of that, he was dealing with a few other health concerns, and understandably, his mom was anxious. "You answered my nervous questions promptly, so compassionately, knowledgeably, and quickly! Every time," she added.

Today, Colby is nearly fully recovered, and we’re so happy to have played a role in his journey back to health. A huge shoutout to his amazing mom for the love and care she’s given him every step of the way!

Meet Hazelnut. Last month, her incredible mom noticed right away when something was wrong; Hazelnut became lethargic, stopped eating, and began vomiting. Thanks to her mom’s quick action and persistence through multiple vet visits, medications, and treatments, they discovered Hazelnut had swallowed something she shouldn’t have, and it was stuck inside her.

Hazelnut was brought to Anicira, where she underwent successful surgery to remove the foreign objects. Her mom shares, "I’m so happy to share that she recovered fully just before her 1st birthday, June 25th! I cannot thank the Anicira team enough…truly. As I reflect, someone was there to pick up the phone at 7am on a Monday when I was in full panic; the hug from Dr. Ayre assuring me that Hazelnut was in good hands; the prompt email responses to my questions. I just can’t thank you enough."

We’re beyond thrilled to hear that Hazelnut has made a full recovery! Huge applause to her mom for her quick thinking and unwavering dedication; her love and vigilance truly made all the difference in getting Hazelnut the care she needed. And, happy belated birthday, Hazelnut!

Meet Olympia (affectionately known as “Potato”) a lovable, goofy 3.5-year-old Pittie whose story is nothing short of heroic.

Back in late April, Olympia started to decline. She was vomiting, lethargic, trembling, and growing weaker by the day. Her devoted family didn’t waste any time; they brought her in for multiple evaluations, determined to find answers. Their persistence paid off. In late May, Olympia was diagnosed with a closed pyometra, a life-threatening uterine infection that required immediate emergency surgery.

Closed pyometra is especially dangerous because there’s no external drainage of the infection, meaning it builds up inside the body, often undetected until it becomes critical. It can cause sepsis, organ failure, and death if not treated quickly. The only cure? Emergency surgery to remove the infected uterus.

Without hesitation, Olympia’s family drove 1.5 hours (over 65 miles) to bring her to Anicira for life-saving care. And that drive represents something powerful: their deep, unconditional love and a commitment to giving Olympia the full, joy-filled life she deserves.

Thanks to the skilled hands of Dr. Ayre, Olympia came through surgery beautifully. Mom shares, “She’s recovered incredibly well. Her incision has healed perfectly. Thank you all for literally saving her life. We can't imagine our life without her, and you all gave us a second chance with her. We will be forever grateful for each and every one of you all.”

We’re absolutely thrilled to hear she’s thriving again, and we’re giving a huge round of applause to her family. Their quick action, dedication, and willingness to go the extra mile (literally!) made all the difference.

This is also a powerful reminder of why spaying your pets is so important. Not only does it prevent unwanted litters, but it also eliminates the risk of pyometra altogether. Spaying can truly be the difference between a quiet weekend and a life-threatening emergency.

Here’s to Olympia, her incredible humans, and many more years of belly rubs, zoomies, and snuggles.

🥵 HEAT ADVISORY ALERT! 🔥The next few days are shaping up to be scorchers, and while we're sweating it out, don’t forget that the heat is just as dangerous (if not more!) for our pets. Unlike us, many of them are basically wearing a winter parka year-round, and they can overheat quickly.

So how can you help keep your furry friends safe?

1. Walk during the coolest times of the day.
Stick to early mornings or late evenings when the sun is low and temperatures are more tolerable. Midday walks in peak heat can be dangerous. If your pet needs to go out, make it a short one!

2. Protect those paws!
Asphalt can get dangerously hot and humans wearing shoes sometimes never know those dangers! When it’s just 85°F outside, pavement can reach over 130°F! If it’s too hot for your bare hand, it’s too hot for their paws. Choose grassy areas, stick to the shade, or invest in protective booties.

3. Keep fresh water available, always!
Hydration is key. Make sure your pet has access to clean, cool water at all times, especially if they’ve been outside even briefly.

4. Never leave your pet in a parked car.
Even with the windows cracked and in the shade, the temperature inside a vehicle can soar to deadly levels in just minutes. It’s never safe, not even “just for a second.”

5. Know the signs of heatstroke in pets.
Watch for excessive panting, drooling, weakness, vomiting, confusion, or collapse. If you notice any of these signs, get your pet to a cool area immediately and call your vet, it’s a medical emergency.

Macaroni here is usually all about hiking adventures and galloping through open fields, but with this extreme heat, he’ll be limiting his outdoor time to quick potty breaks. The rest of the time? He’ll be living his best life indoors, perfecting his couch-potato game.

Stay cool and keep those pets safe!

Meet Cas, the sweetest little guy! A few weeks ago, he had a big day; he was neutered, received his sterilization tattoo, and got microchipped!

We all know the benefits of neutering: it helps reduce marking, roaming, and the risk of certain health issues like prostate problems. The green tattoo he received during surgery is equally important; it’s a quick, visible way for veterinarians or animal control to know he's already been neutered, which helps prevent unnecessary procedures if he ever gets lost.

But what about the microchip, is it really worth it? The answer is a big, very loud YES! YES! YES!

Microchipping provides a permanent form of identification that can’t be removed or lost like a collar or tag. If Cas ever gets separated from his family, that tiny chip could be the key to bringing him home safely. Shelters and vets routinely scan found pets for microchips, and it dramatically increases the chances of a happy reunion!

Way to go, Cas, and kudos to his human for setting him up for a safe and healthy future!

Meet Yeti-Mae! A few weeks ago, this fluffy sweetheart was spayed, and she’s been recovering like a champ! During her procedure, she also received a small green tattoo on her belly.

So, what’s the tattoo for? It’s actually a super important part of responsible pet care. If Yeti-Mae ever gets lost and is picked up by animal control or brought to a shelter, that little green line tells veterinarians that she’s already been spayed. This helps prevent unnecessary surgeries and stress, saving time, money, and keeping pets safer in the long run.

Her mom shares, “Yeti Mae is doing great. You would never know that she had surgery.” Hooray for a speedy recovery! And a big thank you to her family for making sure she’s healthy, happy, and protected for life.

July 4th is just around the corner, are you and your pets ready for the booms, bangs, and bright lights?

While fireworks and festivities are fun for us, they can be downright terrifying for our furry friends. Every year, countless pets go missing after being spooked by loud noises. A little preparation now can make all the difference in keeping them safe and calm.

If your pet takes anxiety medication, NOW is the time to check your supply and request any necessary refills. Don’t wait until the fireworks are lighting up the sky to realize you’re out!

Next, double-check your pet’s microchip information. If your dog or cat manages to escape during the excitement, a quick scan of a microchip with up-to-date info can help bring them back home. Make sure their collars have current ID tags, too, but keep in mind, collars can fall off. A microchip is permanent.

Jellybean, Winifiried, Macaroni, Roxxanne, and Daisy are already ahead of the game! Their paw-rents refilled their anxiety meds and updated their microchip info. And Chewy and Loki the cats? They’ll be staying safe and sound indoors with current chips.

The safest place for your pet during fireworks? Inside the house; windows closed, maybe some soothing music playing, and plenty of comfort from you. Even a tall fence won’t stop a panicked dog from trying to flee loud sounds!

Taking a few simple steps NOW can help ensure your pet stays safe, calm, and exactly where they belong; right at home with you.
