Happy 6 year anniversary to our LVT, Kelly! ๐ Thank you for everything you do!!
We know youโre so excited to go on some autumn nature walks with your dog, but for this #FallSafetyTip, make sure you watch out for snakes, some of which can be venomous! Theyโre preparing for hibernation and may be a little crankier if disturbed by a curious pet! ๐
When walking or hiking, if something happens to your pet, be sure to contact your veterinarian as soon as possible. #VCApets
Today is Global Cat Day, a special occasion devoted to unowned, free-roaming โcommunityโ cats. These cats often get a bad rap but itโs important to understand that these cats arenโt so different from our beloved pets. As a matter of fact, many are living on the streets as a result of being abandoned by their families.
We've included some tips to help manage and care for the community cats in your neighborhood.
Helping these cats starts by being a responsible guardian! Spay/neuter your own cat and keep them indoors.
* In just seven years, a single pair of cats and their offspring could produce a staggering total of 420,000 kittens! #VCApets
Columbus Day is a U.S. holiday that commemorates the landing of Christopher Columbus in the Americas in 1492, and Columbus Day 2019 is on Monday, October 14, 2019. It was unofficially celebrated in a number of cities and states as early as the 18th century, but did not become a federal holiday until 1937.
Happy Columbus Day ๐บ๐ฒ
Veterans Day was originally called Armistice Day, commemorating the end of World War I. For a while, Veterans Dayโs date was changed, too, and it confused everybody. Congress signed the Uniform Holiday Bill in 1968 to ensure that a few federal holidays โ Veterans Day included โ would be celebrated on a Monday.
Aldrich is remembering all who served and fought for our country โค๐บ๐ฒ
