Cat overpopulation is a community problem and it doesn’t take long for just a few unaltered cats to turn into a whole lot more cats needing food, shelter, medical care, and homes.

Operation Tom Cat Takedown is our way of doing something about it. By making neutering more accessible, we’re hoping to prevent unwanted litters before they happen and help reduce the number of stray and community cats struggling on our streets.

Even if you don’t have a tomcat who needs our services, you can still help! Please SHARE this post. You never know who in your neighborhood, friend group, rescue circle, or community has been caring for an intact male cat and just needs an opportunity like this.

Every neuter matters. Every litter prevented matters. And every share helps us reach one more cat. 🐾

Let’s tackle cat overpopulation together, one tomcat at a time.

Great veterinary care shouldn’t have to feel like a financial surprise.

We know pet parents want to do everything they can to keep their pets happy and healthy, but we also realize that veterinary expenses don’t always fit neatly into the monthly budget.

That’s one of the reasons we offer Pet Centric Care Plans along with other financial options.

Instead of paying for your pet’s routine and preventive care all at once throughout the year, a Care Plan bundles their recommended annual veterinary needs into simple, predictable monthly payments.

Depending on your pet’s plan, that can include things like:

🐶 Routine exams
💉 Vaccinations
🩺 Preventive screenings
🔬 Recommended testing
❤️ Other routine preventive care

It’s not pet insurance, it’s a way to plan ahead for the care you already know your pet will need.

We’re always looking for ways to make veterinary care more accessible and manageable for the families who trust us with their pets. Care Plans are just one more way we can help take a little of the stress out of being a pet parent.

Want to learn more? Visit our website and click “Primary Care Plans” under the “For Pet Owners” tab to explore the available options.

And, of course, you can always ask our team at your next visit or give us a call, we’d be happy to help you find a plan that makes sense for you and your pet.

🐈‍⬛ It’s Black Cat Appreciation Day!🖤

For centuries, black cats have gotten a bad rap, tangled up in superstitions, spooky stories, and the old myth that crossing paths with one means bad luck.

We’re here to set the record straight: the only thing unlucky about a black cat is not having one in your life!

Black cats are every bit as loving, goofy, snuggly, mischievous, and full of personality as any other cat. And can we talk about those gorgeous coats and bright, beautiful eyes?!

Today we’re celebrating all of the little house panthers who deserve WAY more love and a whole lot less superstition. 🐈‍⬛✨

Have a black cat at home? Show them off in the comments! We want to see those beautiful faces. 🖤

Did you know it's not normal for your pet to be itchy?

Occasional scratching happens, but if your dog or cat is constantly scratching, licking their paws, chewing at their skin, shaking their ears, or developing recurring ear infections, it could be a sign of an underlying medical condition, not just "normal" pet behavior.

The good news? Relief is possible. The sooner we identify the cause, the sooner we can help your pet feel comfortable again.

If you've noticed any of these signs, don't wait for them to "work themselves out." Give us a call and let's help your pet get back to feeling their best. 💙🐶🐱
