Think you know your feline facts? 🐱🧐

Two of these are true, but one is a lie. Did you guess it right?

🥁 The lie is… cats have more taste buds than dogs!

Cats actually have far fewer taste buds than dogs, and unlike dogs and humans, they can’t taste sweetness.

How’d you do? Tell us in the comments! 👇

An annual exam is more than just a checkup. 🐶

During your dog’s wellness visit, our team may assess weight, heart and lung health, teeth and gums, joints and mobility, and recommend bloodwork based on age and risk factors. This National Pet Wellness Month, schedule an exam to support early detection and lifelong preventive care.

💙 Ask any of our veterinarians, and you will hear the same thing. The care a patient receives depends just as much on the technician standing beside them.

Help us celebrate the people who make quality veterinary care possible this week. 🎉 🐾

Cozy season has arrived, and cats know exactly how to make the most of it. 🐱🧡 Whether it’s curling up in a favorite blanket, snuggling into a sweater, or finding the warmest spot in the house, we love seeing how cats stay comfortable during cooler days. Share your cat’s coziest moments with us and celebrate the little things that make them happiest. ✨

Turn dinner into playtime! 🐈 Puzzle feeders and food games encourage natural hunting behaviors, slow down fast eaters, and help indoor cats stay active. A simple change can make mealtime healthier and more fun.

Cooler weather doesn't mean fleas, ticks, and heartworm are gone! As the seasons change, many pets are still at risk, making year-round prevention just as important in the fall as it is in the summer. Staying on schedule with flea, tick, and heartworm prevention helps keep your pet protected no matter the season. Have questions? We're happy to help! ❤️🐾

Cats are naturally designed to drink less water than many other animals, thanks to their desert-dwelling ancestors. 🐱 That low thirst drive can make staying hydrated a challenge, increasing the risk of urinary and kidney problems over time. Encourage healthy hydration by providing fresh water daily, offering moisture-rich wet food, or trying a pet water fountain. During National Pet Wellness Month, ask our team how to support your cat's kidney health.

Could adoption myths be keeping you from your perfect match? 🐶💙

The right dog may not be the age, breed, or personality you originally pictured. Puppies aren’t always the easiest option, older dogs can learn new skills, and a dog’s time in a shelter doesn’t define how they’ll behave in a home.

Keep an open mind, ask questions, and focus on finding a dog whose needs, energy level, and personality fit your lifestyle. Your perfect match might surprise you!

Fall fun can sometimes lead to unexpected emergencies. 🍂 After hikes, yard work, or outdoor play, watch for signs like repeated vomiting, trouble breathing, difficulty walking, or possible toxin ingestion. When in doubt, give us a call.

Fall is here, and we want to see your pets dressed for the season! Whether they're rocking a cozy sweater, a festive bandana, or a full autumn look, share their fall style with us. From playful pups to fashionable felines and every pet in between, we love celebrating the personalities that make each companion special!
