Many of you are preparing food for gatherings tomorrow, and we are too! Staff who are scheduled to work on Thanksgiving are hustling at home to prepare an on-shift feast that we’ll bring along to share with coworkers who often feel as close as family… and we are so thankful for each of them, every holiday season. 💕

So please, keep your dogs out of the desserts, your cats away from the candles, your ferrets out of… well, everything… and enjoy a safe and happy holiday!! We’re here if you need us, but we’d love a chance to sit down and enjoy our workday feast. ☺️

The change of routine associated with holiday festivities can invite trouble for pets!! Be sure visiting family & friends know not to leave potentially problematic foods or other items (human medications, gummies, v**e pens, etc) within reach of curious critters.

Ready for a Happy Thanksgiving!? For many of us, this holiday can be a busy day filled with entertaining guests, last-minute grocery runs, and preparing a delicious feast. It’s also a time to stay mindful of the Thanksgiving shenanigans our pets can get into.

Check out these tips from the ASPCA Poison Control Center to help keep the holiday happy and pet-safe.

🎄🎁Its never to early to start thinking about the holidays! This year give your pets what they really want, a portrait with Santa!!🎁🎄

Our Santa Paws fundraiser is back! We invite you once again to join us this holiday season for pet portraits with Santa! This event will be held at our Corner Clinic (228 Boston Turnpike, Bolton CT) on Sunday, December 7th from 11am-3pm.

All proceeds from this event will support the Allan Leventhal Memorial Fund. This charitable fund was originally created in memory of our founder Allan Leventhal, who first opened our doors in 1953. The donations within this fund go towards animals in need of assistance with medical costs within our community.

Photo sessions are offered for a contribution of $20 (cash or check only) and include 2 photos taken by a professional volunteer photographer. Digital images will be available through an event link that will be emailed to you within the week! Just in time to send out your holiday cards!

All species are welcome!! 🐩🐈‍⬛🐇🐀🦎 We do require that all animals must be up to date on relevant vaccines, and leashed at all times or be kept in a portable pet carrier for safety reasons.

This week we've been showering our staff (waaaaaayyyy more than the crew in this photo) with love, praise, catered lunches, free massages, etc.; trying to pack another whole year's worth of thanks into Vet Tech Week. Veterinary medicine is no easy gig, and these fine folks make our work possible 24/7/365!!
Oftentimes our doctors are thanked for their work, but it's this crew making things happen behind the scenes every minute of every day. We literally cannot thank them enough 💚🐾💚

Update: Tommy has been captured by FRIENDS OF BUDDY!! 🥳❤️🎉

A cat named Tommy escaped from his carrier in our parking lot before a scheduled appointment yesterday; he ran off in the direction of 6&44 x Cider Mill Road. Our staff is on the lookout, traps have been set, and we’re heartbroken for his family who has been devoted in their search efforts. Please let us know if you happen to see him around! He’s a street-smart cat and will likely be too skittish to catch by hand.

Fun fact: Our new software allows us to add co-owners and other authorized caretakers (folks who you grant permission to make medical decisions in your absence) for your pets. Email us at [email protected] if you’d like us to make any edits to your file!
