Lubbers Mixed Animal Veterinary Services

This old man gave me a scare tonight! I've had him since I was about 14 or 15 & I'll soon be 34. We've been putting up with each other for 20 years. He wasn't exactly a spring chicken when I got him -- he was around 7 to 10 yrs old then. That makes him close to 30. ♥️

A little colic episode & treatment tonight after I got home. Tank did not say thank you after I finished his treatment around 1am, but hopefully some relief is coming his way.

Exciting news! Vaccine clinics will be starting back up in April! --- In the next week, I'll have all confirmed dates from April through October. Stay tuned for the 2025 vaccine clinic schedule!

The baby of the family turned 2 years old in the last week! ❤️🥳🩷

She did grow into those ears some, but she was not impressed with her birthday hat or bandana.

It's almost stock show time in Texas! 🤠❤️👏🏻

Get ahold of me early for your CVIs/Health Papers! The best way to get on the schedule is to email [email protected]

If you call & I am unable to answer, please leave a voicemail. If you don't leave a voicemail, there will be no return call.

Being mobile only & a solo practitioner, it's hard to get last minute requests in; especially for non-established clients. Don't get in a bind!

Best of luck to all of the hardworking exhibitors out there!

This is a super late post, but a couple of weeks back I got this frame from an unknown client. I just wanted to send out a heartfelt thank you! I love it!!! 😊

To that person that sent it to me, I imagine that you too are very patient, caring & kind ❤️

Can't wait to find the perfect picture for this sentimental frame!

This little guy gets to go on Santa's nice list this year! He only nibbled on Reeses' glove once or twice while getting his nails trimmed! 😊

Mark your calendar! TCAP will host a Free Fix Day on Wednesday, November 27. This is our 11th and Final Free Fix Day of 2024 due to the Christmas holiday!

During our Free Fix days, TCAP offers FREE sterilization and rabies vaccines for feral and community cats. This event will take place at six TCAP clinics: Arlington, Burleson, Denton, Garland, Hurst, and Weatherford! 75 cats will be seen at each location on a first-come, first-served basis.

There’s no limit on the number of cats per caregiver, and no appointment is required. Cats must arrive in individual live traps or pet carriers, and all cats will receive an ear tip.

Each cat accepted will receive a voucher for a free spay/neuter for another cat at a future date. Trap One, Get One! You will be able to make an appointment for a free feral spay or neuter at a future date using the voucher you receive. This voucher also includes a rabies vaccine.

Please stay in line if you are outside of the first 75! Our team will provide one voucher per cat present for sterilization vaccine for the next 75 cats! You will be able to make an appointment for a free feral spay or neuter and rabies vaccine at a future date using the voucher you receive. Only those already in line with cats will receive the voucher. The line cuts off no later than 9 am!

Our total impact per location is 225 cats!

Important Notes:
*Any additional fees for in-heat, cryptorchid, or pregnancy procedures will be covered by TCAP
*Caretakers will be responsible for any additional elective services such as vaccines, pain medication, or viral testing at the time of service
*Cats must be presented in live traps or pet carriers
Thank you for being a vital part of our community effort. We’re excited to continue supporting you and the feral and community cats in your care!

💥‼️IMPORTANT ANNOUNCMENTS‼️💥

Right now, as a solo, mobile only, mixed animal practitioner, I have more than I can handle with the current client/patient load, office work/rx requests/paperwork, etc. & need to focus on catching up for the clients I already serve. Quality over quantity veterinary care is important to me.

🩷I am also more than grateful for having the 'problem' of not being able to keep up & cannot thank every client enough for making my mobile veterinary business a success! Thankful doesn't begin to cover it.💯👏🏻💖

*⚠️1.) Lubbers Veterinary will not be taking on any new clients through the end of the year. After the first of the year, I will more than likely start taking on new clients again.

*⚠️2.) Lubbers Veterinary will be scheduling NO further small animal appointments between now, 10/15/24 through 11/2/24. This does not apply to you if you have an already scheduled appointment.

*⚠️3.) Lubbers Veterinary will be scheduling NO further routine livestock appointments between now, 10/15/24 through 11/2/24. This does not apply to you if you have an already scheduled appointment.

*⚠️4.) TRUE livestock emergency appointments will be handled accordingly for already established livestock clients of Lubbers Veterinary.

There are multiple small animal options within an hour drive or less for urgent & emergency care; therefore, I will not be accommodating small animal urgent matters into my schedule at this time.

‼️****The best way to get on the schedule starting the week of 11/4/24 is to send an email to [email protected]****‼️
