We had some interesting visitors at SHVC today! These honeybees had come from a a hive nearby and were swarming on one of our trees. If you ever encounter a swarm, do not disturb them or spray them with water or pesticides. Instead reach out to an area beekeeping organization such as
https://richmondbeekeepers.org/honey-bee-swarms/
and have them relocated, a service that is generally low cost or free. Honeybees are fascinating creatures, and an integral part of food production. 🐝 😍
We will be closing today at 3 PM due to the weather. We wish you all a very safe and Happy Holiday!
Sometimes our patients get sad when we leave the room ❤️
Mr. Man didn’t want us to leave him in his room alone today😊
Do you have a baby panther at home that you would like to recognize? Please share a picture in the comments! 🐈⬛❤️

Dog Teeth-Brushing 101 Ft. Pongo
Doggy Teeth-Brushing 101 featuring staff pet Pongo! He's not exactly thrilled about having his teeth brushed, but nonetheless he's a very good patient! You can find canine and even feline tooth brushes and toothpaste here at SHVC, and we have a few different flavors to choose from (Pongo's favorite is poultry). Daily brushing is highly recommended because it helps maintain the cleanliness pets receive after they have a dental cleaning and helps slow the return of plaque and tarter! Dental health is important in pets just as it is in humans; poor dental hygiene can lead to bad breath and disease.
What a good kitten!
Fender was the purrfect patient today for receiving her deworming medication!
She's still looking for her forever home, come by to meet her and fill out an application!
