It's incredible what people can accomplish when they work together! Being a part of VCA means you're part of a community that combines the best of both worlds: the intimate experience of a hometown clinic with the support of a vast network of thousands of clinics. Our recent charity drive is a testament to the power of teamwork. Take a look at this post from our fantastic social media marketing specialist, Tyler!

Has your cat been itching more often? Atopic dermatitis (atopy) is a common cause of skin problems in cats. When a cat with allergies encounters an environmental protein to which it is allergic, it sets off a reaction leading to skin problems. If you suspect your cat has a new skin problem, call your veterinarian to schedule a visit ๐พ

Approximately 25% of dog visits to the veterinarian involve problems with the skin and hair coat. Even in dogs not experiencing an adverse reaction to food, the skin and hair coat can be affected by many nutritional factors.

July is Lost Pet Prevention Month!
Shelters and rescues have an influx of stray pets enter their facilities in July, many of whom have run off during fireworks or storms. Ensure your pet is reunited with you, with a microchip. Unlike collars, this is a permanent identification that cannot fall off of your pet. It is important to keep your contact information up to date with your microchip company. Call your veterinarian today for more information!
Every year on the third Friday in May, thousands of people around the world participate in Endangered Species Day by celebrating, learning about, and taking action to protect threatened and endangered species. This global day of action and celebration was created and founded by David Robinson and the Endangered Species Coalition in 2006, and has continued ever since.
