💙 HAPPY BOSS’S DAY, ASHLEE! 💙

At Grant Veterinary Care, we are fortunate to have Ashlee as our clinic manager! She is essential to our daily operations, supporting our team, welcoming our clients, and ensuring our patients receive the care and attention they deserve.

Ashlee brings 16 years of veterinary experience to GVC. She began as a Client Service Coordinator at Banfield before working as a Veterinary Assistant at BluePearl and VEST. She gained experience in both general practice and specialty medicine.

Dr. Turner and Ashlee first met at Banfield, and life brought them back together at GVC. Now, they’re working together again, turning ideas into action and building a clinic they’re proud of! 🐾

You may recognize Ashlee as one of the friendly faces greeting you in the morning, but much of her work happens behind the scenes. From keeping our clinic clean and organized to coordinating maintenance for our specialized equipment, she helps keep GVC running smoothly. She’s thinking of ways to improve the client experience and support the people around her.

Her work touches every part of our clinic, and we are grateful for her dedication every day.

💙 Here is Ashlee’s WHY:

“My “why” in veterinary medicine is rooted in doing something I truly love while making my son proud. My passion comes from advocating for animals who cannot speak for themselves and providing them with the care they deserve. One of the most rewarding parts of this career is working with a wide variety of animals, from sea turtles to dogs, knowing that every day brings a chance to make a difference.

I’m so grateful to step into my role as clinic manager and work alongside an amazing team of women who share a passion for veterinary medicine and patient care. I’m excited for what the future holds, both for our clinic and for the growth we can achieve together as a team. I look forward to continuing to learn, lead, support those around me, and make a positive impact on the lives of our patients, their families, and our team.”

Ashlee, thank you for everything you do for our patients, clients, and team. GVC wouldn’t be the same without you! 🐶🐱💙

🌶️🐾 What’s in a name? Let’s talk about PEPPER! 🐾🌶️

We were fortunate to meet 2 Peppers in the day day!

Sweet, spicy, and full of personality! ❤️ The name Pepper is a fun favorite for dogs with a little extra zest. Whether your Pepper is a tiny firecracker, a playful troublemaker, or a sweet snuggle bug, this name definitely has some flavor! 🐶

🐾 Did you know? Pepper ranked #25 among the most popular pet names in the U.S. in 2025! It’s a recognizable favorite, but it still has its own special charm.

🏆 Curious about today’s top dog names? According to U.S. News & World Report’s 2026 rankings, the top three are:

🥇 Bella
🥈 Luna
🥉 Max

But we think every Pepper deserves a spot at the top of the pack! 🐕❤️

📣 Do you have a Pepper at home? Share a picture of your spicy pup in the comments! 🌶️🐾

🐾 HAPPY WEDNESDAY! 🐾

Sometimes we get a little divine company at GVC! ✨

Meet Thoth and Horus, two handsome kitties named after Egyptian gods! 👑🐱

🌙 Thoth is associated with wisdom, writing, magic, and the moon.
☀️ Horus is associated with the sky, kingship, protection, and healing.

These boys lived up to their legendary names and were SUPER good for their exams and vaccines today! 💙

We also discussed annual dental cleanings to help keep their mouths comfortable and their smiles so fresh and so clean! 🦷✨

Even Egyptian royalty needs a little preventive care! 😉

10/13/2026

Meet Kitty, a handsome 10-year-old Ragdoll who recently came in for an exam.

During his visit, Dr. Turner noticed that Kitty’s upper canine teeth were super erupted, giving him a little saber-tooth tiger appearance! 🐯

While this can look unique, super erupted canine teeth may be associated with underlying dental disease, including periodontal disease, inflammation, infection, or tooth resorption.

Kitty underwent a thorough oral examination along with full-mouth dental radiographs, which allowed us to evaluate the teeth and roots below the gumline. His upper canine teeth showed signs of infection, so extraction was recommended and performed.

Kitty went home with pain medication, an e-collar, and instructions to eat soft food for the next 10–14 days while his mouth heals. We also include a complimentary 7-day recheck after dental extractions so we can make sure the surgical sites and sutures are healing properly. ❤️

Going forward, we’ll continue to monitor Kitty with routine exams and recommend regular dental cleanings to help protect his remaining teeth and overall oral health.

Dental disease can often be hidden beneath the gumline, which is why full-mouth dental X-rays are such an important part of a complete dental procedure. 🦷🐾

🐱 Feeding outdoor cats shows you care. Getting them spayed or neutered helps protect their future! 💙

A huge shout-out to Pasquotank County Animal Services, SPAY HR, and Feral Affairs Network for their tireless work helping community cats!

At Grant Veterinary Care, we support their Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) efforts by spaying and neutering cats and providing a one-year rabies vaccination. After recovery, community cats are returned to their outdoor home.

Why is this work so important? Cats can reproduce much sooner—and faster—than many people realize!

🐾 Female kittens can become pregnant as young as 4 months old.

🐾 Pregnancy lasts about two months, and cats can have multiple litters in a year.

🐾 A mother cat can become pregnant again while she is still nursing her kittens.

🐾 Cats are “induced ovulators,” meaning mating usually triggers the release of eggs. They do have heat cycles, and repeated opportunities to breed can quickly lead to more kittens.

Before long, those kittens can have kittens of their own. Shelters and rescues have limited space, funding, and foster homes to care for them all.

Food helps a cat today. Spaying and neutering help prevent the next unwanted litter. Both matter. 💙

Spaying and neutering can also reduce mating-related roaming, fighting, and urine spraying. Your cat does not need to have a litter before being spayed!

If you feed outdoor cats, please connect with a local TNR group to help get them fixed. If you have a pet cat, contact us to discuss scheduling their spay or neuter.

🎁 With the holiday season approaching, consider donating to these hardworking organizations. Your support helps fund surgeries, vaccinations, and the supplies needed to keep this work going.

Give the gift of care—and help stop the cycle, one cat at a time. 🐾

We spayed and neutered over 40 feral cats last Tuesday!!!

Meet Mae. ❤️🐾

This beautiful girl is incredibly special to us.

Mae was adopted from Reba’s Animal Rescue by a wonderful family who decided to take a chance on her—and what an amazing decision that turned out to be. Mae came with a heartworm diagnosis, but her new family saw past that and simply saw a dog who deserved to be loved.

And trust us… Mae is the BEST dog you could ever ask for. 🥹❤️

Seriously, look at that face. How could you NOT fall in love with her?!

One of the absolute best parts of veterinary medicine is getting to watch animals like Mae receive their second chance. Seeing a rescue pet go from an uncertain beginning to being completely loved, spoiled, and living their BEST life is something that never gets old.

Thank you to the rescues who save them, the families who take a chance on them, and everyone who helps give these deserving pets the lives they were always meant to have. 🏡❤️

Mae, you hit the jackpot—and we think your family did too. 🐾

🐱💗 ONE CAT CAN MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE… BUT SO CAN WE! 💗🐱

Meet Binx! We will be recommending her spay surgery when she’s a bit bigger! Here’s why we recommend spaying/neutering.

Did you know that one unspayed female cat and her offspring can potentially produce hundreds of kittens over her lifetime? Under favorable conditions, estimates suggest that a single breeding female and her descendants could contribute to thousands of cats over several years! 😿

Cats reproduce quickly, and without intervention, the number of homeless and community cats can grow rapidly. More kittens mean increased competition for food and shelter, greater risk of illness, and more cats in need of loving homes. 🐾

❤️ That’s why our mission matters!

Our goal is to help reduce the number of unwanted and homeless cats in our community through education, responsible pet ownership, and spaying and neutering. By preventing unplanned litters, we can help break the cycle of overpopulation and give the cats already here a better chance at healthy, happy lives.

🐾 ONE SURGERY. MANY LIVES IMPACTED.

Spaying and neutering is one of the most effective ways we can make a lasting difference for cats in our area.

💬 Help us spread the word! Share this post and encourage friends and family to make spaying and neutering a priority.

Together, we can make a difference — one cat at a time. 🐈❤️

HAVE WE SAID IT LOUD ENOUGH FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK?! 📣🐾

Spaying and neutering your pets is one of the best things you can do for their health—and for your sanity! 😄

Here are a few of our TOP reasons:

🐾 Prevention is much less expensive than an emergency.
Spaying helps prevent pyometra, a serious and potentially life-threatening uterine infection. Neutering can also reduce the risk of certain prostate problems. Treating these conditions—especially through an emergency hospital—can cost thousands of dollars.

🐾 Say goodbye to heat cycles and unwanted behaviors.
No more bloody heat cycles that seem to last FOREVER, and neutering may help reduce urine marking and other hormone-driven behaviors.

🐾 No accidental litters!
Spaying and neutering helps prevent unplanned puppies and kittens and reduces the number of unwanted pets needing homes.

Now, meet our AMAZING Spay & Neuter Rockstars from last Friday! 🌟

Archy, Austin, Rosie, Kash, Doug, Freya, Kali, Hans, Sugar Bear, Luna, and Max! ❤️🐶🐱

Give these babies a round of applause for officially joining the spayed-and-neutered club! 👏🎉

Sometimes our patients are NOT interested in having their picture taken… but if Dr. Turner is around, they really don’t have much of a choice! 😂📸

Meet Lola! ❤️

Life really does come full circle. Lola was actually one of Dr. Turner’s patients way back when she worked at Banfield many moons ago—and Lola is extra special because Dr. Turner is the one who named her!

Well, Lola’s mom finally found her way back to Dr. Turner, and it was such a sweet reunion. 🥹 Lola was absolutely perfect, just like always.

And somehow… Lola has not aged one bit. Dr. Turner, unfortunately, cannot say the same. 😂

And then there is Hendrix… possibly the BEST cat in the world! 🐱

He is basically a dog trapped in a cat’s body—super chill, easygoing, and just happy to hang out with everyone.

We love getting to see both longtime patients and new faces every week! ❤️🐾

10/07/2026

We have to admit… we did NOT do a great job taking pictures last Wednesday! 📸😂

Dr. Turner was feeling a little under the weather, so we only managed to capture a few of the many adorable faces we saw. We promise there were plenty more cuties in the building! ❤️

Meet Benji! 🐶
He was absolutely wonderful and so well-behaved for his visit. We got him updated on his vaccines and heartworm prevention. Benji is a big fan of Simparica Trio, a monthly preventive that helps protect against heartworms, roundworms, hookworms, fleas, and ticks.

Meet Odin! 🌎🐾
This handsome guy is quite the world traveler—he originally came from Spain, so of course we like to say he is bilingual! 🇪🇸 He did wonderfully for his exam and was such a sweet patient.

And meet Aspen! ❤️
We have been seeing this handsome boy since he was just a baby, and he continues to be such a good boy. He LOVES his treats, which always makes visits a little more fun! Aspen was updated on his vaccines and received his ProHeart 12 injection, which provides 12 months of heartworm prevention.

Preventive care may not always be the most exciting part of a veterinary visit, but keeping pets current on vaccines and parasite prevention is one of the best ways to help keep them healthy all year long. 🐾
