🩷🩷Meet our Pet(s) of the Month for February - Stitch and Figment 🩷🩷

"Stitch and Figment joined our family in October 2025 after a rough start to life. They were found at a construction site in a bucket of dirt, only a couple of weeks old. Figment has a tiny tail and Stitch has no tail. A kind Good Samaritan rescued them but couldn’t keep them, so they were turned over to our good friends at Misfit Mountain Animal Rescue in Clyde

After a brief conversation with Amy, the Executive Director at Misfit Mountain, we knew we couldn’t “just foster” because we’d be total foster fails. So we adopted them both. They’re an amazing bonded brother‑and‑sister pair who love to play, do zoomies, be held, and purr away. They even enjoy watching TV—whether it’s the Olympics or cat TV—and they love car rides, usually snoozing the whole way.

They totally love Dr. Amber, who is always so patient with them and with us, and takes the time to explain everything in detail. We’re incredibly grateful for her care.

Huge thanks as well to the entire staff at White Oak for taking such great care of our fuzzy butts. We’re so happy we found our friends at White Oak!"

Finding that your cat has urinated outside the litter box can be frustrating, but it’s your cat’s way of telling you something is not quite right. 🩺

Here are the most common causes:
🚽 Medical issues like feline interstitial cystitis, bladder stones, or kidney problems.
😿 Stress or anxiety from changes at home. (New pets, new people, or even moving furniture)
🧼 Litter box concerns such as dirty litter, scented products, or a box that’s too small or hard to reach.

👉 The first step? Schedule a visit to rule out medical causes. Once your cat gets a clean bill of health, we can help you identify environmental or behavioral triggers. With a little detective work (and lots of love), most cats are back to their tidy habits in no time.

✨ Take it slow. Create separate safe spaces for each pet, so no one feels crowded or overwhelmed.
👃 Let them get used to each other’s scent before they meet face-to-face, swapping blankets or toys can help!
🐶🐱 Begin with brief, supervised meetings and maintain a positive tone in early interactions.
🎾 Reward calm behavior with praise, treats, or playtime to reinforce good vibes.

Remember, patience is key! Some pets bond right away; others need a little time, and that’s okay. If you’re unsure how to make the transition smooth, we can help with personalized guidance based on your pets’ personalities.

February is Veterinary Dental Health Month, and dental disease is one of the most overlooked health issues in cats and dogs! Watch for these red flags:
✔️ Bad breath (not just ‘dog breath’)
✔️ Drooling or dropping food
✔️ Red, swollen gums
✔️ Brown buildup on teeth
✔️ Pawing at the mouth or reluctance to eat

Left untreated, dental disease can lead to pain, infection, and even issues with the heart, liver, or kidneys. 🩺

The short answer is yes; pets can get their own brand of respiratory infections.
🐶 Dogs can catch illnesses like canine influenza, kennel cough, or other upper respiratory infections that cause coughing, sneezing, a runny nose, and fatigue.
🐱 Cats can get viruses like feline herpesvirus or calicivirus, which can also lead to cold-like symptoms.
🐾If your pet has a cough, sneeze, nasal discharge, or just seems under the weather, don’t assume it’s “just a cold.” Call us if you notice any changes in your pet’s breathing, energy, or appetite.
🩺 Good news: Many of these illnesses are preventable with the right vaccines and proactive care.

January is National Train Your Dog Month, the perfect time to build better habits together!
✅ Keep training sessions short, fun, and consistent.
✅ Reward right away, dogs live in the moment!
✅ Be patient, learning takes time (and lots of repetition).
✅ Focus on one new behavior at a time.
✅ Make it a part of your daily routine!
