We know you’re 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! They’re preparing for hibernation and may be a little crankier if disturbed by a curious pet! 🐍
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 “community” cats. These cats often get a bad rap but it’s important to understand that these cats aren’t 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

The holidays are full of food, fun, and beautiful decorations! 🌿 Make sure to avoid houseplants that are poisonous for pets, like lilies.
While lilies are beautiful, they pose certain risks for your cat! If the toxic petals or pollen are eaten by your pet, it can cause kidney failure or be fatal. 🌺🚫🐱
If your pet has ingested a toxic plant, call your veterinarian or Animal Poison Control (888-426-4435) right away.
