Kitties are waiting for you!!

One of our wonderful clients, while teaming up with local organizations, rescues and fosters kittens found around in community. He does an excellent job with their care and socialization. Even a few of our employees have adopted from him! You can find their fur babies on our employee pet wall 😻

Pictured here are kittens Sapphire, Jasper, Pearl, and Agate, as well as Binx and Spot who are a bonded-pair of 15 month old, sweet boys- all searching for a family to call their own.

If you are looking for some new additions to your home, or know of anyone else who is, please send us a facebook message directly for more information!

A bat has tested positive very close by in Wilmette, which is a great reminder that rabies is out there and pets need to stay current on their vaccinations to stay protected. Many people assume that if their pet is strictly indoors, most household cats for example, then they are safe from rabies. However, an astonishing fact is that some bats can fit through an opening 3/8 of an inch wide! That's tiny! An additional reminder is that rabies is not just spread by bats, it can be spread by multiple kinds of animals. All pets should be protected with a rabies vaccine. Rabies is nearly 100% fatal. Please speak with your veterinarian for further information.

A bat tested positive for rabies in the 200 block of Linden Avenue in Wilmette.

Ensure your pets are safe from rabies by staying current on their vaccinations. Cook County Animal and Rabies Control is hosting free rabies and microchips clinics through October to help keep your pets protected. See clinic details: http://cookgov.me/petclinics

It's that time of year when back to school is in full swing, which includes our wonderful summer assistants. They are an important part of keeping the clinic running smoothly during the busy summer season.

Happy 4th of July 🇺🇸

To keep your pets safe this holiday weekend, remember to:

1) Keep them inside so they don't get scared from loud noises and run off. Check that their surroundings are secure as well (i.e. fences).
2) Make sure they are wearing collars with updated ID tags.
3) Refill sedative or anxiety medications now to have on hand if necessary.
4) Make a comfortable and quiet space for them to retreat to if they get overwhelmed.
5) Provide plenty of fresh water to keep them hydrated in the heat.
6) Avoid ingestion of toxic foods (onion, chocolate, grapes) and toxic chemicals (bug repellents, citronella candles) while out barbequing and hanging with friends.

Stay safe and have fun!

Thank you to Halas and his family for sharing his 10th birthday celebration with us! 🥳

Halas is a an explosion of energy and will always be a puppy at heart. He comes equipped with a smile and wagging tail, and ready to chase the ball from wall to wall during his appointments. It’s always a great day when Halas comes to play!
