Not all of your furry friends will fit in your luggage. Call us at 970-867-9477 to schedule your holiday boarding now! Even if you aren’t leaving town we can watch Fluffy while you entertain company. No one wants to have to explain why the cats on the table. 🤦🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️

The chickens noticed someone new in the barn. 🐔

He hasn’t moved, hasn’t fed them, and has been holding that pitchfork for an awfully long time.

They’re keeping a close eye on him. Happy Halloween from Fort Morgan Veterinary Clinic! 🎃👻

A Llama’s Guide to Scaring Humans 🦙🎃

That spit has a purpose. Llamas and alpacas use it mainly to communicate with each other—to protect food, maintain space, or settle a disagreement. They may also spit toward a person if they feel threatened, crowded, or unable to move away.

Before the “special effects,” watch their body language. Ears held back, a tense posture, or an attempt to retreat can all mean they need more space. Approach calmly, avoid cornering them, and give them a clear way to move away.

The real trick is recognizing when an animal is uncomfortable and responding before it feels the need to escalate. 👻

Things That Go BRAY in the Night 👻🫏

You’re walking past the barn after dark. Everything is quiet. Then, from somewhere in the shadows:

HEE-HAWWW!

Donkeys bray to communicate. One may be calling to a companion, reacting to a change nearby, or making its feelings about dinner time very clear. Softer sounds and body language can offer clues, too—but the best way to understand a donkey’s voice is to know what’s normal for that donkey.

If the calling suddenly becomes frequent or sounds different, check in on them. A change paired with pacing, a poor appetite, or other unusual behavior may signal stress or discomfort. Call Fort Morgan Veterinary Clinic at (970) 867-9477 if something seems wrong.

For the reel, though? Sound on. 🔊

Pick Your Poison: Farm Edition 🎃

The real farm frights aren’t ghosts. They’re the things animals might find around the barn or pasture:

🌾 Moldy hay or feed can contain harmful toxins. When in doubt, keep it out of the feeder.
🌿 Toxic plants like nightshade, hemlock, and wilted wild cherry leaves may be growing along fence lines.
💧 Blue-green algae can develop in ponds and troughs. Keep animals away from suspicious water.
🐭 Rodent bait belongs in secure stations animals can’t reach.
🚗 Antifreeze and shop chemicals need closed containers and prompt spill cleanup.
🍬 Chocolate, candy, sugar-free sweets, and wrappers belong in the house.
🔋 Old batteries, equipment, and peeling paint can hide lead hazards where animals graze or explore.

Actually, don’t pick any. 👻 Walk pastures regularly, check feed and water, and keep chemicals and bait out of reach. If you suspect an animal has eaten something toxic, call Fort Morgan Veterinary Clinic immediately at (970) 867-9477.

**The Great Pumpkin Livestock Debate 🎃**

Can the barnyard crew share in the fall fun? **Horses, cattle, pigs, goats, sheep, alpacas, and llamas can have fresh, plain pumpkin** as an occasional treat. The trick is serving it safely:

🔪 **Cut it up.** Chop pumpkin into small, manageable pieces, especially for alpacas and llamas. A whole, hard pumpkin is difficult for them to bite into.

🎃 **Keep it clean.** Skip pumpkins that are moldy, rotting, painted, sprayed, bleached, or covered in candle wax. Displayed jack-o’-lanterns should stay out of the pasture.

🥄 **Serve a little.** Start with a small amount rather than making pumpkin a meal. Portions depend on the animal and its usual diet.

And if your llama or alpaca turns up their nose? They may simply be unimpressed by the new menu item. 🦙

The Headless Horseman’s Pre-Ride Checklist 🎃🐎

He may have lost his head, but he still knows better than to skip the pre-ride check:

☑️ Pick out and inspect all four hooves.
☑️ Look and feel for swelling, heat, or tenderness in the legs.
☑️ Check that the saddle and tack fit comfortably and are secure.
☑️ Watch your horse walk for any stiffness or uneven steps.

If something seems off, let the spooky ride wait.

Meet the team behind the team. 🐈🐈🐈

Fort Morgan Veterinary Clinic has three feline staff members, each with a very important job:

🐾 Lucky Ducky, Practice Manager: Rescued during a blizzard, Ducky recovered from a shattered leg and promptly appointed himself supervisor of the clinic. His management style includes greeting clients, inspecting blankets, and appearing wherever you least expect him.

🐾 Second Chance, Assistant Manager: After surgery for a broken leg, Chance found a home here—and a job alongside Ducky. He monitors the windows, hunts bugs, accepts cuddles, and has mastered the leap into his brother’s hammock on three legs.

🐾 Patrick, Security and Barn Protector: Patrick came to us with an injured eye and stayed to guard the barn. He patrols the grounds, inspects the parking lot, and keeps the local squirrel population under close observation.

All three found a second chance here. Now they make every day at the clinic a little more interesting. Swipe to meet the crew! 🧡
