This National Veterinary Technician Week, we're celebrating the incredible Associates who make our hospitals thrive — like Karen, who began as a CSR and never stopped growing and like Joanne, who sought mentorship and support to obtain her VTNE.

At VCA, we're proud to champion our veterinary technicians every step of the way — offering mentorship, encouragement, and the resources to help you reach your full potential.

To every vet tech in our VCA family: thank you. What you do matters deeply — to our teams, to our patients, and to the pet owners who trust us with their most beloved companions.

Did you know cats can actually sense the season changing before you do? 🍂
Shorter daylight hours trigger shifts in your cat's behavior, appetite, and sleep patterns. You might notice them eating a little more, sleeping longer, or seeking out warmer spots around the house as October sets in. It's completely normal and just their body responding to the change in light. 🐱

Every surgery starts long before the first incision. It starts with a veterinary technician who has spent years mastering their skills, anticipating needs, monitoring vitals, and showing up fully prepared for every patient who comes through the door.

Vet techs are the heart of every OR team, and their skill and dedication make a difference every single day. At some VCA specialty hospitals, we take surgical collaboration even further. Some of our teams include Certified Surgical Technologists (CSTs) — professionals who earned specialized degrees specifically to support surgeons in the OR.

The result? Less time under anesthesia. Better outcomes. And a team that truly works as one. 💙

Because every patient is somebody's pet — and they deserve nothing less than the best.

Gel-based cooling masks are becoming more common in homes, but they may pose an unexpected risk to dogs.

A recent case series described severe neurologic toxicity in dogs after ingestion of hydrogel cooling masks containing acrylamide. Because there is no specific antidote, awareness and prevention are especially important.

This Trends article reviews the reported cases, clinical signs, treatment considerations, and what veterinary teams should know when educating clients about these products.

Those whiskers aren't just for looks. 🐱

Did you know a cat's whiskers are actually highly sensitive sensory tools? They help cats navigate tight spaces, detect changes in air current, and even sense nearby objects in the dark.

Trimming them is a hard NO since it can genuinely disorient your cat. ❌
