Yesterday, we enjoyed a visit with Dr. Michael Kay and Shannon Cole at Highway 5 Animal Hospital. It's always a great day when we reconnect with our supporters in the community. Michael went to school with Kirk, and his father, Dr. Jim Kay, was a well known and popular veterinarian we used with our fur babies until he retired. Great family!
