You know your pet better than anyone. If you notice your pet behaving in a way that's unusual for him/her, you may have picked up on a subtle sign of a real problem. Call your veterinarian or an animal emergency center near you.

Many moons ago, somewhere around 2015, AA Animal ER had a unique opportunity outside of our usual cats, dogs and small animal clientele. Almost eight years to the day, Dr. Stanton and her team used their skill, compassion and hearts to save a beautiful monkey by the name of Irene.
When Irene was brought to our facility for emergency treatment she was very sick and required around the clock care. This beautiful baby had a strong will to live! Irene fought along side of Dr. Stanton and her team for days. She required oxygen therapy and soft loving hands.
The team was able to pull her through and she was given a second chance at life with caring friends. Even though she was only with our team during her very critical days, our memories are fond. How unbelievably lucky we were to have the chance to care for such a beautiful creature as Irene. In her time of need, Irene landed in the safest place I know, the capable healing hands of Dr. Stanton.
We haven’t seen Irene in many years nor received many updates but knew she was safe and living with other primates.
We recently learned of Irene’s passing. We offer our condolences to every human who took over when our job was done and cared for Irene the rest of her days.
Irene, thank you for stepping into our lives those many years ago. All of us know what an honor it was to care for you.
Here are a few pictures for all to enjoy and remember….blessings come in many packages and we can all be the change we wish to see in the world.

Fireworks are fun for us! A celebration that symbolizes our freedom! They are loud, colorful and exciting for us …. but very scary for many of our pets!
With the Fourth of July fast approaching this is a friendly reminder to contact your regular Veterinarian for any prescribed medications you may need to help soothe your pets fear.

Tis the season....
Dr. Stanton started AA Animal ER solo and she recognizes the growth and success of the hospital has much to do with her team.
She recognizes their hard work and admires their mutual love for all animals. Today she showed her appreciation by hosting a beautiful Christmas party for the team at Hellas restaurant in Tarpon Springs.
Here are a few pictures taken from our 2022 Christmas party with the theme "under the sea" and we must admit, it seemed like a favorite, especially with our very own shark 🦈 in attendance.
We at AA Animal ER wish you a holiday season filled with health, joy & peace. May the New Year bring prosperity and clarity.

Even though it is with a heavy heart we write this post, we choose to celebrate the countless lives our beautiful Noodle saved instead of mourning her passing.
Noodle was discarded by a human who found no worth in her life. She found a safe landing spot with one of the kindest human beings I know, Dr. Stanton.
Dr. Stanton fought alongside her team and saved the life of this little kitten that would soon become a hero.
Noodle cozied up to a wonderful life at the clinic and of course, gave back. Noodle had a rare blood type, B to be exact. She saved many lives by being a blood donor. This post isn’t to make you sad. This post is to honor her life. We celebrate that she landed safely many years ago exactly where she was needed.
A few days ago we lost our Noodle. The community lost our Noodle, but her blood runs through many veins.
When we think of her, we think of a hero. When we think of her we count our blessings. When we think of her now, we remember all she did for so many families.
Rest easy baby girl.
See you on the other side. ❤️

Today we celebrate International Cat Day!
In honor of this purrfect holiday we would like to share a story of a case we had in our ER. We are honored to care for such stoic, loving, beautiful creatures.

A beautiful feline presented with GI issues. She was lethargic, weak and vomiting.
This beauty had no known health issues and previously drawn routine blood work showed no concerns.
With a light sedation our DVM was able to conduct an oral exam and found there was a piece of string wrapped around a back tooth. Diagnostics revealed the string was in-twined throughout the stomach and intestines.
After speaking to the owners both agreed with our DVM that an exploratory surgery was necessary for foreign body removal.
This procedure is surgical and requires full sedation. Our team quickly prepared the operating room and prepped this beauty for surgery. Thanks to the steady hands of our surgeon all of the string was removed and the cat did not have any damage to its vital organs.
This sweet feline received a second chance and we received all the glory. Glory for saving a life.
Glory for the opportunity to work along side such amazing doctors. Glory for working along side the very best caring nurses, but most of all, glory to God for giving us the opportunity to fill our days and nights helping such beautiful creatures.❤️

Help us fill Facebook with cats! Post your pictures below ⬇️❤️
