Congratulations to Julie, our newest licensed veterinary technician!!! We are so proud of all the hard work it took to prepare for licensing boards! It is challenging enough to complete this task right out of college , but years after graduating it is even more so of an accomplishment! Julie can now tell you all about small animal medicine and she can also tell you about horses, cattle, pigs, sheep and goats too! Kudos to Julie - we believed she could do it but more importantly she believed in herself that she could do it!

From smart collars that monitor vital signs to robot nannies that play fetch, AI is helping move pet care to the next level🤖But are these high tech solutions truly helpful or potentially harmful?🤔

~The global pet industry is expanding rapidly, projected to reach $500 billion by 2030, with AI technology emerging as a particularly profitable sector through smart devices for pets
AI-powered smart collars like PetPace monitor pets' vital signs with 90% accuracy, tracking metrics like stress levels and sleep quality to detect potential health issues early
~Purina's Petivity Smart Litterbox uses AI to monitor cats' bathroom habits, weight and elimination patterns, helping detect early signs of conditions like kidney disease and diabetes
~PetNow technology aims to replace traditional pet identification methods by using AI-powered biometric scans of animals' noses, claiming 99.9% accuracy in pet identification and verification
~While AI pet care tools offer convenience, experts warn they might disrupt the human-animal bond, with some arguing that pets need direct human interaction rather than robotic companions.
~It is something to thing about!🤔

🐾 Our senior pets deserve a lifetime of love and care. As they age, challenges like reduced mobility, chronic pain, and cognitive decline can arise, but they don’t have to limit their quality of life.
An integrative approach to senior pet care—combining traditional treatments with complementary therapies—can make a world of difference. From acupuncture and supplements to mobility exercises and social-emotional support, these tools help manage chronic conditions, improve comfort, and strengthen the bond between pets and their families. Speak with our veterinarians they are trained in many different areas of medicine.

Accidents happenI it’s not “just a cat”. Sadly, not all cats are exclusively indoor cats. Sometimes a cat can escape, sometimes they are simply let outside when an owner can’t keep it anymore, and there are countless ferals. Do the right thing should you find yourself in this sad scenario. Try to help and at the very least call and report it.😿
