Please do not panic. Be smart with your pet and stay updated with the most up to date, reliable, credible, information.

What did Oreo say when Doc asked who wanted to be featured today?
Pygmy! 😂
A study completed by the American Medical Veterinary Association, have shown 1 in 6 veterinarians have considered su***de at some point in their career.
Dr. Caroline Jurney, of ,explains the struggles of being a veterinarian:
"The people who go into medical fields are amazing, giving caregivers right like they want to help," Jurney said. "The circumstances of life keep you from doing the things that you want to do, that you think is right. So, for instance, a pet owner can't afford care. You know, they can't afford the surgery their dog desperately needs. I've trained my whole life, I've dedicated my whole life to helping animals and this external circumstance prevents me from doing it. And let me tell you, nobody goes into veterinary medicine to make money.”
“We frequently get somewhat attacked for that. If they can't pay for the medical care, then we are the ones that are guilted into 'well, why did you go into this field? If you love animals, why did you become a doctor? Why can't you cut the cost? You're all about money!"
Su***de Prevention Awareness Month provides a dedicated time to come together with collective passion and strength to address this difficult topic. The truth is, we can all benefit from honest conversations about mental health conditions and su***de, because just one conversation can change a life.
If you or someone you know is experiencing a mental health crisis, please call or text 988

What's your diagnosis? 🤔 If you guessed Ringworm, you're correct!! 🤭 🪱Ringworm (feline dermatophytosis) is among the most frequently occurring skin disorders affecting cats. The fungi responsible are called dermatophytes - microscopic organisms that are common inhabitants of soil. Ringworm is a ZOONOTIC disease—it can be passed from an infected cat to a human who comes in contact with it! 😷 Using our handy dandy Wood's Lamp - an ultraviolet light under which a fungus-coated hair will glow with a yellowish-green color (see video) - we were able to further confirm our diagnosis with a fungal PCR 🧐 While the diagnosis may be scary, if treated appropriately, the vast majority of our feline friends make a complete recovery! 🥳 #catsofinstagram #kitten #skincare #fearfreepets #fearfreevetvisit #science #fungus #ringworm #kittensofinstagram #vetmed #veterinaryheroes #veterinarynursing #veterinarian #veterinarymedicine #vettechlife #vettech #vetlife #uv #travel #mobile #drjoedvm
