Having some laser fun with Asha, a sweet Great Pyrenees dog. 😎 Treating her arthritis with it and some veterinary medical manipulation. Such a good patient!

Here is the most recent info from AVMA about bird flu.

Since the U.S. outbreak of avian influenza A (H5N1) in dairy cattle began in March 2024, dozens of cats are known to have contracted the virus, including barn and feral cats, indoor cats, and big cats in zoos and in the wild (e.g., mountain lions, tigers, leopards, and bobcats).

You may have seen the news story that one of the microchip companies has gone out of business This is NOT the company that we use so if we implanted your microchip, you have nothing to worry about and this is just a reminder to make sure your information is up-to-date with AVIDID.com

However, it is Save This Life microchips that has gone out of business, so any microchip registered with them will no longer be functional. I would recommend registering any of those microchips with a different company as soon as possible.

There are several microchip registries where you can update your pet’s information, although I’m not sure of the cost:
HomeAgain – https://www.homeagain.com
AKC Reunite – https://www.akcreunite.org
PetLink – https://www.petlink.net
Found Animals Registry – https://www.foundanimals.org/microchip-registry/

It might be a good idea to check the status of your chips by going to the Universal Pet Microchip Lookup Tool: https://www.petmicrochiplookup.org.

Again, we have always used AVID microchips, so our chip registry is still secure and available.

Reach out if you have any questions. The microchip numbers are listed on your vaccination certificates or any exam notes we have emailed to you.

After scanning lost pet, enter the number into the microchip registry tool to search for the manufacturer of the chip.

We will be closed this afternoon and tomorrow for Christmas. If you have an emergency, you can reach out to Dr. Heather on the ER cell phone. Otherwise, leave a message or email and Sarah will get back to you on Thursday. We hope that you all have a peaceful and merry Christmas! 🎄 🎅🏻 🎁

I have been asked a few times about a sad local story about avian influenza causing death and disease in wild captive cats at Wild Felid Advocacy Center of Washington

I didn’t hear about this place until last night, but I assume the infections were from raw meat, either fed directly or maybe they caught wild birds. There are cases of domestic cats infected from raw meat and raw milk. 😞 Definitely make sure all meat is fully cooked before feeding it and milk is pasteurized for yourself and your pets.

This is a good resource: https://www.avma.org/resources-tools/animal-health-and-welfare/animal-health/avian-influenza/avian-influenza-companion-animals

“Cats and dogs may become infected if they eat sick or dead infected birds, drink unpasteurized milk or cream from infected cows, or eat undercooked or raw meat, and there might be other ways the virus spreads. Although the likelihood of dogs catching avian influenza continues to be very low, several barn/feral cats have become severely ill from H5N1 infection since the outbreak in cattle began.”

Learn how avian influenza affects companion animals and backyard poultry, and how to prevent it from spreading.

How fun! We need to make one for the truck! 🙂 So generous of them to do this for Steven's Animal Sanctuary! I hope lots of people attend!

Come out December 4th and Craft for a Cause! For $30/crafter you’ll grab a drink and settle in with friends to raise money for Steven's Animal Sanctuary. Tickets are available behind the bar on Thur/Fri when we are open or you can swing by and grab a ticket at the door.

It’s Thursday morning and we still don’t have any power, and not much cell service. I have internet only when the generator is running, but not much fuel. I assume most of the rest of you are struggling, too, in this area. We are hunkering down and rescheduling things for yesterday and today but may have to wait until next week to clarify. Sarah is trying to get in touch with folks via phone or text or email as she can. I would think I can get to cobbers tomorrow, but we shall see and if you can’t, let us know. Be safe!

11/20/2024

Well, we’ve all survived the crazy windstorm, but the whole area is out of power. We have a generator to get the well working and some power, but no heat aside from the wood stove. Truck is staying home while the crews take time to clean up and make the roads safe for everyone. Sarah doesn’t have a generator or power so she won’t be able to get in touch with everyone today, most likely. Will see how the day goes and when PSE might estimate we have power again, but I’m not holding my breath. Stay safe out there, everyone!
