Most of our feline friends live a pretty sheltered life and are often forgotten when it comes to routine care. But National Take Your Cat to the Vet Day is a reminder that annual wellness exams are very important for your feline family members!
A wellness visit with our veterinarians and technicians keep track of weight trends, look for dental issues you may not notice, and can find changes that can occur with their hearts, eyes and bellies.
We know that being stuffed into a carrier, enduring a car ride and then being touched by strangers can be very offensive. We can help make these visits to OAH better with some feline pheromones, soft blankets, quiet exam rooms with windows to look outside and medications if needed. You can help your cat be more comfortable leaving the house by keeping the carrier in your home all the time and occasionally tossing some treats in there. Keep a soft blanket or bed in there and cover it for a cozy hiding spot. Spray the carrier with some Feliway (a cat pheromone) before you leave to make car rides not so scary.

It's Black Cat Appreciation Day!
Black-colored animals can be challenging to photograph but we think these photos are fabulous!
We love the sunshine and sunflower contrast with Casper's photo, Boba looks very jaunty in his fancy bowtie and Zelda's super shiny coat really stands out on the ottoman she is resting on.
Are you a owned by a black cat? Let's see them below!

It's National Check the Chip Day! Microchips reunite pets with families. Did you know that all sorts of animals can receive microchips? Dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, horses and other livestock, ferrets, tortoises, and even snakes can all be microchipped!

If your pet isn’t already microchipped, make an appointment with your veterinarian now for microchipping. Register your pet's chip immediately with the manufacturer, making sure all of your contact information is included. Ask your veterinarian to scan the microchip during your pet's annual wellness exam every year.

Here's a little story about a dog named Max who got lost and learn how he got back home to his family: https://youtu.be/SHS7kfrYxcY

Luckily Maggie (below) came to her new family with a microchip so if she ever gets lost she can get back to her family much more faster than an animal that doesn't have one.

Each year on Check the Chip Day, check your pet's microchip registration information and update it if it's incomplete or no longer correct. Need to check your registration? Check here: https://www.aaha.org/for-veterinary-professionals/microchip-search/

It's World Lizard Day!
The holiday's origins are unknown, but it's a day to celebrate lizards, a group of vertebrates with thousands of species and unique characteristics. Lizards, are a suborder of reptiles called Sauria, can be found on every continent except Antarctica, and are important as both predators and prey. All lizards have long bodies and tails, four legs, and moveable eyelids. Most lizards lay eggs. However, there are some lizards that give birth to live babies.
Over 9 million people in the United States have a lizard as a pet and OAH is part of that super special group with our handsome little buddy, Clarence, our bearded dragon. Are you the proud owner of a scaly friend? Let's see them!

Today is International Cat Day! On this day we unite cat lovers across the globe and celebrate cats – sharing our passion for this fascinating species.
Milo is watching his minions from above, Ace is embarrassed by his fancy bowtie but secretly loves it, Al is showing off his skill doing the "cat loaf" and silly Mac is wondering why his human didn't knock before entering the room!
We love all these silly creatures and love sharing our lives with them. Let's see a photo of your cat!

What job does YOUR pup excel at?

Kitten season is in full swing! Late spring and early summer is when many, many kittens are born. Rescue agencies can easily get overwhelmed by the large influx so seeking out a new kitten or two (they go great in pairs!) is a win-win for all!

07/25/2024

It's time for our annual reminder about the dangers of corn cobs! Ingestion of these nearly always ends badly and/or expensively. Make sure cobs are tossed into bins that your pups don't have access too!
