⛑️April is also Pet First Aid Awareness Month!⛑️

First aid care is not a substitute for veterinary care, but it may save your pet's life until you can get them to the nearest veterinary facility. Having a first aid kit on hand for your pet will help you feel prepared when the need to use one arises, below we have listed some basic supplies to keep on hand.

Bandaging : Gauze pads & rolls, vet wrap, medical tape.
Cleaning & Wound Care: Saline wound wash, saline eye wash, antiseptic wipes, topical antibiotic ointment.
Tools: Bandage scissors, digital thermometer (for re**al use), tweezers, syringe or eye dropper, large towel or blanket.
Extra Items : Muzzle **use caution in short nosed breeds and never muzzle a pet that is vomiting!**, disposable gloves, instant cold pack, styptic powder.

❗️Always be sure to have a list of important phone numbers! (Your veterinarian, emergency hospital, poison control, etc)

We are looking for a home for a very special senior girl! 💜

Meet April! She is a 15 year old sweetheart who was surrendered to our clinic, despite everything she is incredibly affectionate and gentle. She would do best as the only pet in the home, where she can get all the attention and love she deserves. She is perfect for someone that is looking for a very affectionate and vocal companion!

If you or someone you know might be interested in giving this sweet girl a home, please reach out! We would be more than happy to answer questions or set up a meet & greet with her! 🐱🐾

✨DR Spotlight!✨

We’re excited to shine this week’s spotlight on Dr. Kelleher! With 13 years of dedicated service to our practice, his passion for animal care—especially for our feline friends—has made a lasting impact on both pets and their people.
Known for his thorough approach and love of cats, he brings compassion and experience to every appointment. Whether it’s a routine check-up, a more complex case or a surgery, he’s always committed to providing the best care possible.

When he’s not on the clock, you can find him caring for our beloved clan of cats that live at the hospital. Or when he’s not at the clinic, you might find him enjoying some well-deserved time off in Orlando, exploring his favorite theme parks! 🐱🎢
