One of our beloved hospital cats, Fred, is turning SWEET 16 this August! He's been at AVH since 2018, and since then he’s been supervising the lunch room, climbing on the shoulders of unsuspecting employees, and napping in the most inconvenient places possible. 😹

To celebrate one of our favorite felines, we’re giving all of his fellow cats a special birthday treat: 🎁 $10 OFF all primary care cat visits for the entire month of August! 🎁

Help us celebrate Fred, leave him a birthday message below!

Summer days on the water can be a blast, here are a few things to remember before you leave the dock:

🦺 Life Jackets for EVERYONE. Even if your dog is a strong swimmer, a well-fitted pet life jacket can help keep them safe in unexpected currents or if they get tired.
💧 Make sure your pet has access to fresh, clean water. Salt water and lake water aren’t safe for drinking, and pets can dehydrate quickly in the sun.
🌞 Boats can heat up fast. Make sure your pet has a spot in the shade to relax when they need to. Bring a shaded area or pop-up canopy if your boat has no cover.
👀 Pets can slip or jump overboard, so keep a close eye on them at all times and avoid letting them roam unsupervised near the edge.
🌊 Watch for seasickness or stress. Pets can get nauseous or anxious on the water, start with short trips and see how they do. If they seem overly stressed or disoriented, it might be best to leave them on land next time.
