Surprise! We have another staff feature Friday for you!

Today we excited to introduce our summer receptionist, Allison!

When she's not working her magic at our front desk, Allison attends Vancouver Island University - she'll be headed into her third year of Biology this fall. You can catch her playing for the VIU Mariners basketball team! 🏀

Allison loves to spend her free time watching sunsets, baking, and of course spending time with her friends and family.

She is grateful to have the opportunity to gain valuable experience working with the River Path team, and we are grateful to have her fantastic support until we have to wave her off to school again.

Thanks for all your hard work Allison! 🐾

We got a kick out of this photo of one of our patients, Watson.

He came in the other day for a nail trim, and ended up with a new 'do!

Despite how stylish his new look is, we don't think we'll be adding hair styling to our list of services!

Be aware of lilies and members of the lily family (such as tulips!) in your flower arrangements if you have a cat at home.

If you suspect your kitty has come into contact with any part of a lily, it’s important to contact an emergency clinic immediately for treatment. The quicker action is taken, the better the chances for a full recovery.

Keep lilies (and all parts of the plant) out of reach and consider safer flowers, such as roses, carnations or sunflowers, to brighten your home without putting your feline friend at risk!

Parasites are always ready to get a little too friendly with your pet, and with the temperature warming up, there are more creepy crawlies out and about! 🦠

Fleas, ticks, worms, and mites can transmit diseases, cause gastrointestinal problems, and skin issues.

But don’t worry – we’ve got you covered! Your pet deserves safe and effective protection from those pesky tagalongs. We offer tailored parasite prevention options based on your pet’s lifestyle and needs.

Call us today to purchase your preventions or book an appointment with your vet and learn which protection is right for your furry friend!📞🐶

✨ Meet Amber! ✨

For staff feature Friday, we're excited to introduce the newest member of our team – Amber! 🐾

Amber joined the RPVC family with a background in both small and large animal medicine. Originally from Saskatchewan, she spent 10 years in Ontario before the beauty of the mountains called her to Alberta.

As a practicing RVT for 6 years, Amber's passion is for working with small animals. 🐶🐱 She particularly loves radiography, lab work, and providing top-notch nursing care to ensure your pets get the best possible treatment.

When she's not caring for your furry family members, Amber enjoys outdoor adventures with her husband and dog, as well as reading, painting, and traveling.

Help us give Amber a warm welcome to our clinic family! ❤️
