Cats are remarkable athletes! 🐈 Their superiority in speed, precision, and flexibility are only matched by their extraordinary ability to sleep 12 to 16 hours a day. When they aren't sleeping, these little speed gymnasts can sometimes accidentally get into potentially hazardous situations. One instance could be their collars catching on protruding objects, trapping or injuring them. Cats may also try to escape their collar and catch their leg or their lower jaw in the collar, making it hard for them to move. If anything like this happens to a cat without anyone around, it can be extremely dangerous for them.

Some people think collars are not necessary for cats that don't go outside or that they won't tolerate them. But cats can get out accidentally so for their safety, inside or outside, we recommend getting them used to wearing one. Breakaway collars save cat lives! ❤😸

⚡️🐶 Polo’s Shocking Snack 🐾

Meet Polo—the pup who thought a battery looked like a tasty treat! 😳🔋

This curious boy landed in our ER after helping himself to a chewed-up battery (10/10 do not recommend). Radiographs confirmed the chewed up culprit, and our team got right to work. Polo was sent home with tummy-protecting meds and a gourmet plan of frequent canned meals 🍽️—because who doesn't love an all-you-can-eat wet food buffet while waiting to pass some mystery metal?

Feel better soon, Polo! And maybe next time… stick to chew toys. 💙🐾

Meet Moxie 🐾

Moxie came to our ER when she was having trouble delivering her puppies. During her exam, our team noticed she had a fever and abnormal discharge—indicators of potential complications. She was immediately taken into surgery for an emergency C-section.

Thanks to the quick action of our emergency team, Moxie did great under anesthesia and is now back home recovering comfortably. 💕 We're thrilled to share that four sweet puppies were safely delivered and are now getting lots of love and care.

We’re so proud of this strong mama and grateful to have been part of her journey. 💪🐾
