Anyone in the Rutland area missing a kitten?

This kitten was found in the Rutland Commons parking lot and brought to our office by a kind passerby. He appears well fed and well socialized so we’re sure he has a home somewhere close by!

Please share so we can find his family!

We are pleased to announce that we have a new online pharmacy!

Many of you have already received an email with our new pharmacy link and rest assure our staff is working diligently to transfer prescriptions from our previous pharmacy to the new pharmacy and will contact you with any updates necessary.

If you need to request a new prescription, you can either do so at the link provided or we can transfer it for you. You will still have access to our previous online pharmacy for a limited amount of time.

We apologize for any inconvenience this transition may cause and assure you that this change is aimed at improving our services and offering better savings to you in the future.

We know how hard it is to lose your best friend and would like to offer an avenue to celebrate their life. Each month we will post an opportunity to honor your beloved fur babies on our page and link some local opportunities to work through any grief you may be experiencing.

Let's pay tribute to any pets who have crossed over the rainbow bridge in the past month or at any other time. Please feel free to post any special pictures or memories in the comments!

This is a courtesy listing for two cats that need great homes! Meet Tiger and Prince. They have been living together but may actually do better apart as Tiger seems to take his role as king of the house a little too seriously. Tiger is the tabby (about 3 years old) and Prince is the black cat (about 8 years old) and both have been neutered. We are unsure if they get along with dogs. Let us know if you’re interested for more details! Please share or tag someone if you think they may be interested.
