Coco is our Weekend Patient of the Day! Family veterinary visits with our pets are so much fun and offer a great experience for bonding and education! Marcel was a big help to Dr. Kalvig and Araceli, adding valuable insight into Coco’s history while learning how to listen with a stethoscope. Coco passed her 2-year-old wellness exam with flying colors! When Marcel agreed that she wasn’t smiling for the camera, he stepped in to help her with lots of love and family support! 🐱🩺❤️

Hi Everyone, My name is Jimmy, but my Dad and Best Friend, Jacek, call me “Daddy.” I know…. crazy. My Uncle Luca and Aunt Rosina call me “Dimmy,” but in truth, I was named after the great, legendary fashion designer James Galanos. I wish all of you a Happy Valentine’s Day filled with much love and peace of heart and mind. I want to tell my beloved Dr. Barbara Kalvig and Dr. Michael Shorter that I love them and thank them and THE ENTIRE STAFF for loving and taking care of me!!! ###xx Jimmy Rucci

Thank you to Alfred’s family for sending this photo of their little guy snuggled up as the beautiful snow falls in Vermont!

Because we are all HAPPY when the weekend comes, remembering a visit from Sirius during the week is an added bonus! Jumping up to greet his pal Davonesse, this 5-year-old Groodle (Australian Goldendoodle) spreads his super happy and positive vibes wherever he goes!! 🎶🐶❤️ #happy #happydogs #happydogslife #groodle #groodlelove #veterinarymedicine #veterinarylife #petwellness #ksvpets #murrayhill #kalvigandshorterveterinaryassociates

Wishing all of our friends a joyful and pet safe New Year’s Eve celebration, and happiness, peace, and good health to all in the coming year! 🥂🎆❤️

Singing Happy Birthday and clapping for Davonesse was the sweetest part of the day, as we enjoyed a delicious Argentinian caramel and coconut birthday cake, homemade chocolate cupcakes from Christopher’s wife who loves to bake, and chocolate-covered strawberries!! 🎂🍓🍰🎁 #happybirthday #veterinarylife #murrayhillnyc #ksvteam #kalvigandshorterveterinaryassociates
