EMMIE – CLINIC KITTY
RIP
04/10/2005 to 9/15/2023

It is with great sadness we share this, but we thought some of you would like to know. Emmie, our clinic kitty, has passed away. She came to us over 17 years ago, covered in blood, on a cold, snowy night. Dr. Dale cleaned her up, did a little surgery, and gave her a job. She and her best friend, Mama Kitty, who passed a year and a half ago, were inseparable. Both did their best to entertain everyone with climbing up into the exposed rafters. They would sleep together on Doc’s chair, just a ball of black and white fur. Both Emmie and Mama came from less-than-ideal circumstances, but they both were big parts of our clinic family.
Emmie felt it was her job to comfort other animals’ humans when they were fearful or sad. A young girl was once standing at the front desk, crying over her pet being euthanized. Emmie came galloping from the back, jumped on the desk, and ran over to her and put her little furry arms around her neck as she cried, hugging her. She stayed with her until time for them to leave.

She loved to sit on whatever paper we were working on, or on Doc’s computer—anything that was robbing her of our attention. He would fuss at her for finding a way to turn his laptop screen upside down. He finally just taped the “how to turn your screen right side up again” instructions on the wall.

She was also a pretty good construction supervisor! (see dishwasher installation picture below).

Thanks, Emmie and Mama Kitty for doing such a fine job of entertaining the troops, and for training/mothering/raising the next generation of clinic kitties, and for all the love. We miss you both! 😢
