Clients, please be careful when accessing our parking lot today, Monday and possibly Tuesday of next week, as some paving is being revised in the staff lot behind the hospital. There will be traffic control to guide you, and you will still be able to park in the side client lot. (And take heart, we're almost finished!)

Bali was seen by Dr. Heisey & Nikki for his first kitten visit. Initially he was hesitant to try our churu, but you can see it didn’t take long for him to warm up! What a pleasant, easy little guy he was.

Our Lab Manager, CVT Katie, sees parasites on her microscope slides all the time. This little guy is an ear mite. Ear mites are microscopic parasites that infest the ear canals of cats and dogs. The most common symptoms of ear mites are scratching at the ears and shaking the head. Inside the ear, you may see discharge that looks like coffee grounds. We do not recommend any home remedies. If you suspect you dog or cat has ear mites, give us a call today at 814-238-5100.

We are thankful for all of those places who give so many animals a second chance at a forever home, and we salute the many volunteers who make it their mission to assist rehoming efforts in a multitude of ways. KUDOS TO YOU ALL!

National Animal Shelter Appreciation Week honors the community of carers who help homeless and injured animals.
