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
🎉 It's a great end to a week of celebrating the hard work that our amazing technicians do for Tech Week! 🎉 A week full of food, gifts, and appreciation was in order!

In an unprecedented time like this, we couldn't have been luckier to have the team that we do.
Thank you to Jami, Jessie, Nicole, Kailey, Lindsay, Emma, Sara, Tori, and Hannah! 💕You all deserve to be celebrated every day!
