🐾 It’s National Take Your Cat to the Vet Day! 🐱💉

Cats are masters of disguise—especially when it comes to hiding illness. Just because your feline friend seems fine doesn’t mean they’re not silently dealing with health issues.

Regular vet visits help catch problems early, keep vaccinations up to date, and ensure your cat lives a long, healthy, and happy life. Whether it’s a kitten, a senior snuggler, or your aloof little panther, they all deserve the best care.

This lovely puppy's first visit left our staff smitten. It's not often that we meet a Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever.... and it's even more exceptional to meet a puppy!

Another danger to look out for during this heat wave

🦠 Beware of Blue-Green Algae! 🦠

As temperatures rise, blue-green algae is more common. Blue-green algae, also known as cyanobacteria, thrive in warm lakes, ponds and other slow-moving waters. This heatwave creates ideal conditions for these deadly blooms to form and persist.

Why is it dangerous❓

Toxic Ingestion❗
If dogs drink or swim in contaminated water, they can ingest these toxins, leading to severe liver damage or neurological problems.

Symptoms: Excessive drooling, vomiting, diarrhea, disorientation, collapsing, pale gums, paralysis, seizures, and difficulty breathing.

🌍🐾 Happy World Veterinary Day!🐾🌍
Today, we celebrate and honor the incredible veterinarians who dedicate their lives to the well-being of our beloved animals. At FVAH, we are privileged to work alongside some of the most compassionate, skilled, and selfless individuals in the profession.

However, we also want to shed light on an important and serious issue within this field: veterinarians have one of the highest su***de rates of any profession. The combination of immense responsibility, compassion fatigue, student debt, and emotional strain can take a toll on their mental health.

Let’s come together to show our vets the appreciation, understanding, and support they truly deserve. 💖
If you know a veterinarian, take a moment to thank them today. Kind words can mean the world. 🌟
