We're committed to providing the best care for your pets, and to help sustain our services, we’ve introduced a 3.5% fee on credit and debit card transactions. This fee allows us to cover the increasing costs of payment processing while ensuring we can continue offering high-quality veterinary care. This fee can be avoided by using cash or check. We appreciate your understanding and support as we strive to keep our clinic running smoothly for your furry friends!

It is with very heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved Cathy.

Cathy was more than just a coworker; she was a cherished member of our team, a dear friend, a helpful hand, and a shoulder to cry on for us and our clients who had the privilege of knowing her. She was a staple here at Island Animal Clinic for over 23 years. She was crucial to our success and happiness and will be missed immensely. She was full of warmth, kindness, and dedication. Her presence certainly brightened the clinic, even on the difficult days. Cathy was a feisty spirit with a heart of gold.

Services will be held this Sunday the 28th at 2:00pm at Trinity by The Sea in Port Aransas, TX.

If you would like to send flowers to her family, you can send them to Charlie Marshall’s Funeral Home in Aransas Pass, TX.

Cathy’s absence leaves a void that cannot be filled, but her spirit will continue to guide and inspire us. She will be profoundly missed by all who had to the privilege of knowing her. We are heartbroken and are trying to process this loss, Cathy is irreplaceable.

How many tv shows or movies have you seen where a dog is chewing on a bone or jerky chew? Dogs love to chew so many owners’ first choice to keep pets occupied and content is to give their pet a jerky treat. Although this may seem like a clever idea, there is evidence showing that ANY type of jerky treats have been leading to a kidney illness called Fanconi-Like Syndrome. Great alternatives to jerky treats are Milk Bones, Carrots, Celery, or if you are looking for something to help keep your pets’ teeth clean Greenies are a good option too, if your pet chews them. Below is an article by the FDA that goes more in depth into issues caused by jerky treats. Please help us spread awareness.

Since 2007, FDA has received reports of illnesses in pets associated with the consumption of jerky pet treats.
