We don’t play favorites at CMAC… but if we did, Piper would’ve been at the top of the list. We lost her a few months ago, and her absence has been deeply felt.
Today, we welcomed a new little soul who will be following in her pawprints — and we’re already smitten. Meet Pinky! 💕 Rescued from a hoarding situation, she’s just beginning to learn what it means to feel safe and loved… and she’s already making incredible progress.
This sweet pup hit the jackpot — and honestly, so did we. 🐾

Meet Bear! 🧸🐱What's missing in this photo???

In April of 2020, Bear's mom had noticed that he was having trouble eating. He was only 2 years old at the time and had no previous medical issues. She took him to the vet and he was diagnosed with stomatitis, which is a painful condition that caused severe inflammation and ulcers to form in his mouth. They tried medications first but he did not respond well. The next step was to do a dental cleaning! Bear went through multiple procedures throughout this process, the first one with Dr. Gaddis at the Animal Dental Specialists. He received a dental cleaning as well as dental X-rays which helped us come to the conclusion that he needed multiple teeth removed. His following two procedures were performed by Dr. Ezell while she was working at VCA Becker animal hospital. They decided as a team to split the procedures into two additional sessions to try and allow Bear to keep some of his teeth but his condition was so severe that he needed a full mouth extraction. This process happened over the course of 7 months. By May of 2021, Bear was fully recovered and living his best life as a gummy boy! He is now 7 years old and thriving, still eating dry food like nothing ever happened!

Clementine was found this summer digging through some trash that contained chick-fil-a scraps 🥺
One of our clients brought her in (pictured left) and we discovered her degloved chin. She was terrified and hungry but warmed up fast! Pictured right is her recheck; she's a gem! 😻

Woodchip came in for his big boy rabies appointment (with his camera shy sisters) 😸
They came in as a litter found in the woodchipper and we have loved watching them grow!!
Woodchip (pictured below as a wee baby last year and today all grown up) was definitely born with some photogenic genes 😊
