Friends-

I have some unfortunate news to share.

After a successful reopening this morning, around 3:30 this afternoon a smell started popping up throughout the building. After investigation, it turned out to be a chemical being used for the roof installation. We were told that, traditionally, the chemical smell isn’t able to reach the interior of buildings. However, for some reason this time, it did. So we unfortunately had to evacuate and close.

We will be closed tomorrow, Wednesday, 11/11/26. I am hopeful for a reopen on Thursday, but just after the last week, won’t make any official calls until tomorrow.

I appreciate your continued understanding. I am beyond sorry!

Please keep an eye on Facebook for continued updates!! You can reach out to Carolina Family Vet, East Asheville Family Vet, and MedVet Asheville for any emergencies. (Please note: they can only legally provide refills of medications if their doctors have an office visit with your pet.)

Attention Clients:

We are excited to share some good news! Our construction crews have officially given us the green light to reopen tomorrow, Tuesday, November 10th, for regular business hours!

While clients may still see construction crews on-site as they continue working through the remaining project, the interior of our building is ready to welcome you and your pets back. We are incredibly excited to get back to doing what we love!

For those looking to schedule appointments this week, please utilize the "Book an Appointment" tab on our website. We do anticipate a higher-than-normal call volume to our office this week as we work to accommodate everyone following the unexpected closure. We appreciate your patience as our team works through the increased demand.

I also want to personally acknowledge how frustrating and inconvenient this entire process has been for many of you. I completely understand those frustrations, and I want to make myself available to anyone who would like to discuss the situation with me directly. Simply let the staff member you speak with know that you would like to talk with me, and I will do my best to connect with you. Please understand that, given the anticipated call volume and other responsibilities, it may take me a few days to personally reach everyone who requests a conversation.

On behalf of our entire team, thank you for your patience, understanding, and, most importantly, the concern and kindness you've shown toward our staff throughout this process. Your support has meant a great deal to all of us.

We look forward to welcoming everyone back tomorrow!

All the best,

Nathan W.
Practice Manager

***UPDATE: A Little More Time Needed! 🐾💛***

Attention, WAFV family!

We just received word that, unfortunately, we will not be able to reopen the clinic this Monday, November 9th, as originally hoped. Due to some delays in completing the renovations, we will need a little more time before we can welcome everyone back through our doors.

Our team is truly saddened to have to extend this closure. We miss our clients, our furry friends, and getting back to doing what we love most — caring for the pets in our West Asheville community!

We will continue to share updates on the progress of our building and our anticipated reopening as we receive more information. Please know that we are just as eager as you are to get back up and running, and we cannot wait to see you all in person SOON! ❤️

To our wonderful West Asheville community, thank you for your continued patience, kindness, and understanding. Your support means the world to our entire team, and we are so grateful to have you in our corner.

Sending lots of love and belly rubs until we see you again! 🐶🐱💛

With gratitude,
Your WAFV Team

***Original Post***
Attention clients and furry friends:

I wanted to take a moment to provide you all with an update regarding the building project at WAFV.

Our building recently experienced some vandalism that resulted in a fair amount of damage to the interior of our facility. Repairs were initially expected to require the clinic to close for two days. However, once our contractors began the tear-out process, they discovered that the damage was a bit more extensive than we had initially anticipated. As a result, our clinic will need to remain closed until next week.

Our goal is to reopen on Monday, November 9th. In the meantime, we will utilize our social media platforms to keep you all informed as we receive updates.

I want to stress that our entire team understands how important access to your pet's care is and how challenging disruptions like this can be. We are just as eager to get back to work and welcome you all back through our doors. Unfortunately, given the extent of the damage, we are at the mercy of our amazing contractors as they work to get us back up and running as quickly as possible.

If your pet needs immediate care during this time, please reach out to East Asheville Family Vet, Carolina Family Vet, or MedVet Asheville. Their teams can assist with appointments for sick or urgent care needs.

We sincerely appreciate your patience and understanding, and we look forward to seeing you all very soon!

All the best,

Nathan W. Practice Manager
