With summer in full swing, heatstroke is a common - and preventable - seasonal emergency we treat in our hospitals. Because pets rely primarily on panting rather than sweating to cool down, high humidity and heat can overwhelm them in just a few minutes.
Critical signs of heatstroke to watch for:
☀️ Heavy, uncontrollable panting or drooling
☀️ Bright red or pale gums
☀️ Wobbling or sudden collapse
☀️ Vomiting or diarrhea
☀️ Body temperature above 104°F
What to do if you suspect heatstroke:
Immediately move your pet to an air-conditioned area. Wet their paws, belly and underarms with lukewarm water and offer small sips of fresh, cool (not cold) water. Do not use ice or submerge them in cold water.
Heatstroke is a true medical emergency that can quickly cause internal damage. If your pet is showing signs of distress, do not wait for the symptoms to improve - transport them immediately to your nearest emergency pet hospital.

Happy Father’s Day to all the cat dads out there.

As a cat, I feel it’s important to recognize the sacrifices you’ve made:
🐾 You scoop my litter.
🐾 You buy the expensive food I sniff and reject.
🐾 You surrender your chair the second I look at it.
🐾 You wake up at 5:00 a.m. because I yelled at a wall.

I suppose you’ve earned a little appreciation.

So, Happy Father’s Day to my favorite human servant. You’re… acceptable. Try not to let it go to your head. I’ll still pretend I don’t know you when company comes over.

Now, I demand treats in honor of YOUR special day.

If your cat has you completely trained, post their best snarky Father’s Day photo in the comments. Let’s see which feline has the most obedient staff.

P.S. The cat council has reviewed this message and agreed it’s the maximum amount of affection legally allowed.

Reflecting on the sacrifice that our service men and women and their faithful canine companions made for our country. We are closed today in observance of Memorial Day and will reopen tomorrow at 8:30 AM.

Memorial Day

Memorial Day is set aside for remembering those who have died in the defense of this country. It's important for all of us to pause, remember, and honor the sacrifice that others have made to enable our freedom.

Tens of thousands of dogs have served and protected American troops in war zones. Their service has saved countless American lives. Many of them did not make it home.

Sgt. Stubby, an early Boston Terrier, served heroically in WWI. He was one of the lucky ones and came home.
Today, let's honor our forgotten four-legged heroes too.
