🐾 Furbaby Friday Feature 🐾

Meet Kolby, an adorable 3.5-month-old tabby kitten who recently found his forever home! 🧡🐱 This sweet boy came in to get established with our team, and he arrived wearing bat wings that had everyone completely obsessed! 🦇🥹

Kolby was an absolute sweetheart during his visit. He recently had his rabies and FVRCP vaccines and was neutered, so he's already off to a great start on his kitten wellness journey!

We also tested a f***l sample, which is an important part of kitten care. Intestinal parasites can be common in young cats, even when they look perfectly healthy. Thankfully, Kolby's results came back negative! 🎉

Between his adorable costume and his sweet personality, Kolby definitely stole the show. We're so happy he's settling into his new home and can't wait to watch him grow! 💙🐾

🦎💚 Happy Reptile Awareness Day!

While reptiles aren't among the patients we see here at West Park Animal Hospital, we still think these fascinating animals deserve a little appreciation today!

Bearded dragons, snakes, geckos, turtles, and other reptiles have incredibly unique needs. Proper husbandry is essential to keeping them healthy, including the right:

🌡️ Temperature and heating
💡 UVB lighting
💧 Humidity
🏡 Enclosure setup
🥬 Nutrition
🩺 Veterinary care

Reptiles are experts at hiding signs of illness, which makes knowing what is normal for your individual pet especially important.

If you share your home with a reptile, make sure you have access to a veterinarian who is experienced in caring for that species.

Today, we're celebrating these scaly, shelled, and seriously cool members of the animal kingdom! 🦎🐢🐍💚

🐾 Furbaby Friday Feature 🐾

Meet Bailey, a sweet 4-year-old Golden Retriever with a whole lot of energy and an even bigger heart! 💛🐶 Bailey has a special way of showing affection by wrapping his head around your leg for a hug. Fair warning: once he starts handing out hugs, you might not want to leave!

Bailey came in for his routine vaccines, and during his visit, our team also checked out an ongoing issue with his left ear. He had some waxy buildup and yeast and bacteria on his ear testing, so we cleaned his ears and sent him home with medication and an ear-cleaning routine to help keep things under control.

Chronic ear irritation can sometimes be associated with allergies, so if Bailey's ear troubles continue, further investigation may help us find the underlying cause. Regular ear care and keeping an eye out for redness, odor, head shaking, or scratching can help catch flare-ups early! 🩺

Between his high-energy personality and his signature leg hugs, Bailey definitely knows how to make an impression. We loved having this handsome boy visit! 🥰

🎉🐾 Happy National Boss's Day!

Today, we're celebrating the five incredible partners who lead West Park Animal Hospital with dedication, compassion, and a shared commitment to exceptional veterinary care. ❤️

This year is especially meaningful, as four of our five partners are celebrating major career milestones with WPAH! 🌟

👏 Dr. Borys Pakush and Dr. Kane Henderson are approaching 30 years with West Park Animal Hospital.

👏 Dr. Kari Swedenborg and Dr. Megan Culler recently celebrated 25 years with WPAH.

👏 Dr. Scott Zielinski, who joined the team in 2003, brings more than two decades of experience and dedication to our hospital.

Since opening in 1996, our partners have helped guide WPAH through two major expansions, first moving into a larger facility in 2003 and then opening our state-of-the-art hospital in 2024. Their leadership has helped shape not only our hospital, but also the team and community we've built along the way. 🏥❤️

Thank you for investing in our team, supporting our growth, caring for our patients, and continually working to make West Park Animal Hospital a place where people and pets feel welcome. We're grateful for your leadership and proud to be part of the team you've built. Happy Boss's Day! 👏🎉

🎾🐕 Ready, set, FETCH!

It's National Fetch Day, which means it's time to celebrate one of the most classic games in the dog playbook.

A good game of fetch can provide exercise, mental stimulation, and quality time with your favorite four-legged friend. ❤️

But remember, fetch doesn't have to mean endlessly throwing a ball as far as possible!

🐾 Try different toys.
🌳 Change up the location.
🧠 Add simple training cues like "drop it" or "wait."
👃 Let your dog sniff and explore between throws.
💦 Take breaks and offer water, especially on warmer days.

And if your dog brings the toy back approximately 0.3% of the time before running away with it... well, that's still fetch, right? 😂

Go enjoy a game with your favorite ball-obsessed pup today! 🎾🐶

🐾 Today is National Pet Obesity Awareness Day⚖️

Do you know what a healthy weight looks like for your pet?

It can be surprisingly difficult to tell! We're used to seeing our pets every day, and sometimes a few extra pounds can be easy to miss. That's why body condition scoring can be such a helpful tool.

Our graphic shows the range from "too thin to obese" and some of the physical characteristics to look for along the way.

For a pet at an ideal body condition, you should generally be able to:

🐾 Feel their ribs without pressing through a thick layer of fat
👀 See a noticeable waist when looking from above
🩻 See an abdominal tuck when looking from the side

But every pet is different. Breed, body type, age, muscle mass, and medical conditions can all affect what a healthy weight looks like.

If you're unsure where your pet falls on the scale, ask your veterinary team! We can help assess their body condition and create an appropriate nutrition and weight-management plan if needed.

A healthy weight isn't about making your pet look a certain way. It's about helping them live a healthier, more comfortable life. ❤️🐶🐱
