#NationalCatDay

Misty is doing Friday right by enjoying this beautiful weather! What a sweet girl she is 💕

Thank you for this wonderful review. We truly love our patients!

Happy Purrrrsday from Mel! 😍

Our clients have told us again and again-our hospital is something truly special. We are now thrilled to welcome another special, caring and bright doctor to our five-star team.

Dr. Im first attended school in Korea and then completed her studies at the stellar Veterinary Clinical Sciences program at the Oklahoma State University. She will be joining our team for a 6 week externship starting on August 20th and then will be starting with us full-time as a veterinary associate in mid-October.

She has done rotations in a specialty hospital in both internal medicine and dermatology and brings passionate dedication, and invaluable knowledge to our practice. She looks forward to getting to know our clients and creating a relationship with them as she helps your pets live the longest, fullest life possible.

Join us in giving a warm welcome to Dr. Im!

Melody said she likes to explore when she comes to the vet, and that is exactly what she did! We love you sweet girl! 💕

30 Of The Most Adorable Photos Of Cat Dads And Their Furry Friends

In honor of Father's Day this weekend, check out these hilariously cute Cat Dad photos!

Have a fun photo of your own? Share below!

boredpanda.com There are plenty of stereotypes out there when it comes to guys and cats; they are sensitive, deep and caring, more likely to fancy staying home reading James Joyce and puffing moodily on a cigarette than be out and about exploring the world like those adventurous dog guys.

Unlike dogs, cats are not the typical host for heartworms, and most worms in cats don't survive to the adult stage. If infected, cats typically have just one to three worms. However, worms can still cause damage to your cat, such as heartworm associated respiratory disease (HARD), immune system issues and more. It is important to note that there is no approved drug therapy for heartworm infection in cats. So it is crucial to give your cat monthly heartworm preventives.

Moreover, the medication used to treat heartworm infections in dogs cannot be used in cats, so prevention is the only means of protecting cats from the effects of heartworm disease. To learn more about heartworm prevention and testing feel free to contact us or stop by.

Each June is Adopt-A-Cat Month! It coincides with the peak of "kitten season," when tons of kittens are born and often end up in animal shelters. This month will you consider giving a new cat a forever home?!

Be safe this summer and please remember to never leave your pet unattended in a parked car for any period of time. Temperatures in enclosed cars can rise quickly in just a few minutes, even on a mild day and with the windows cracked. Your pet can quickly suffer brain damage or die from heatstroke or suffocation.

Many cats prefer to stay home, but if you must take your pet with you in your car, do so safely: cats should ride in pet carriers and never be unattended.

We've been known to share videos and articles about awesome cat cafes across the US - but did you know there was one in DC?! Get your coffee and cat cuddles at Crumbs & Whiskers!

Meet Tarot, our psychic cat! 🙀 Just kidding, she’s not a fortune teller, but she can foresee the *near* future of everyone who visits her. First, you’ll see her and fall in love.😻 Then you’ll follow her upstairs to her perch. Lastly, you’ll melt into a puddle when she purrrrs up against your leg and headbutts you for pets. 🥰 When Tarot first came to us, she spent most of her time alone in our “cats only” area. Now, she enjoys cuddle sessions in our upstairs cushions, and allows both cats and humans to join in! 😸 If you’re in DC, come meet Tarot at our cat café!

If you're happy and you know it say "meow" 😸

May is Lyme Disease Prevention Month. Lyme disease affects both humans and pets and is the most commonly reported vector-borne illness in the United States. It is carried and transmitted mainly by the deer tick - tiny black-legged ticks found in forests or grassy, wooded, marshy areas near rivers, lakes or oceans.

We know it can cause significant disease in people and dogs but that doesn’t necessarily hold true for cats. However, it is still very important to keep your cats on a tick-preventative product for protection from other parasitic diseases and spreading ticks and potentially Lyme disease to dogs and humans in the home.

Make sure you are taking extra precautions for your pets by using reliable tick-preventive products, avoiding areas ticks may be found and checking for ticks once indoors. Contact us for more information and preventative product recommendations.

To all the great mothers all over the world, happy mother's day!
