Update: Individual came forward. We’d like to focus our energies on finding this sweet cat a forever home now. Please apply for her through our website (alanimalservices.com) and mention that you are interested in Lottie.

We need your help identifying this individual. She threw an adult cat into our veterinary clinic, shut the door and drove off in a fury, causing a vehicular wreck in the process. The time stamp on the video is incorrect. This occurred at about 11:50am on 6/26/25.

Any information is appreciated.

We lost an incredible team member and friend this weekend due to a tragic car accident. Many of you know Deb McMurtrey for her vivacious smile and infectious laugh. She was a servant for the Lord all her days, taking care of all of us and many of you.

Please allow us time to celebrate her amazing life this Wednesday afternoon. If you’d like to join us in paying your respects to her family, her celebration of life ceremony will be at 2pm at Emanuel Baptist Church, this Wednesday, July 3rd.

The clinic and animal shelter will be closing to the public at noon this Wednesday. They will also be closed to celebrate Independence Day.

God bless the McMurtrey Family and all those who loved her.
