Hey there, Miso, Archey, Snickers, and Bing here to share some fascinating this !

Did you know our whiskers serve as an incredible built-in GPS?

These sensitive hairs, called vibrissae, allow us to expertly navigate tight spaces, detect even the slightest air currents, and identify nearby objects in the dark!

Typically, we have 12 whiskers on each side of our face, arranged in precise rows. They’re deeply rooted in our skin and linked to nerves that send vital signals to our brains.

Please never trim our whiskers—they are essential for our orientation and well-being!

Now you are smarter... you're welcome!

Join us in celebrating Arielle on her special day—Happy Birthday, Arielle!

Arielle plays a vital role in our veterinary family, bringing valuable skills and a compassionate spirit to our team. Her dedication to animal care and her friendly demeanor make her an essential part of our practice. We truly appreciate everything she does for our patients and their pet parents!

Delphinium's (not pictured) symbolizes Arielle's birth flower. Her birth flower symbolizes openness, lightheartedness, and strong bonds; those qualities begin to describe what a wonderful gift she is to our team. Arielle's laugh is incredibly contagious. Her intoxicating laugh has been known to stop any of us in our tracks just to soak in her smile and laugh with her. She is a joyful voice for all of our patients and helps pet parents achieve their health goals with each of their furry, scaled, or feathered family members. One of her many qualities is not just building but holding onto the relationships she forms. This is wonderful for our team and the community we serve.

When Arielle isn’t dedicating her time to All Creatures, she focuses intently on her education. Balancing her studies with her passion for animals, she excels as an animal nurse, providing compassionate care and support to pet patients. Her dedication and work ethic shine through in everything she does. Given her talents and commitment, we do not doubt that she will soon be extending her skills to helping humans as well, pursuing a career in healthcare with the same level of excellence and empathy that she demonstrates with animals.

Arielle consistently demonstrates exceptional compassion, which significantly enhances our team’s atmosphere. Today, let us take the time to celebrate her outstanding efforts and the positive impact she has on our community!

Whether you're firing up the BBQ, enjoying the sunny afternoon, or having a relaxing day, we want to help make it a safe and fun day for every member of your family.

Here are a few pet-friendly tips to keep in mind while you celebrate:

🎆Keep pets away from fireworks and loud noises: Create a quiet, cozy space inside with their favorite toys and a little background noise.

🌭 BBQ safety: Keep human food out of reach, especially onions, chocolate, and cooked bones, which can be harmful to pets.

🌞 Stay cool: Make sure your pet has plenty of shade and fresh water if you're spending time outside.

🆔 Microchips & ID tags: Ensure your pet’s microchip and ID tags are up-to-date, just in case they get scared and run off.

📸 Lastly, don’t forget to share your pet’s festive selfies with us through our mobile app! We’d love to see how you’re celebrating! https://app.myvet2pet.com/info-card/U2FsdGVkX191APhhkrligq48H7xsNA%2FW%2Fi9mi5pprx%2FloEIJ9P6eeZF5NmUGXppJ

Question: What do Marlo, Piper, Creechy, and Rosie all have in common?



Answer: They are microchipped!

May is Chip Your Pet Month!

Dogs and cats can get loose and become lost in the blink of an eye. Whether they are startled by loud noises, squeeze through a cracked door, or simply break free from their leash, it is something we never expect. Pets can become lost very quickly, and if they have no I.D. tag, a microchip may become their only chance of being returned home. If your pet is microchipped, it is VITAL that you register their I.D. number with your information and always be sure to update the account if you move. While microchips do not have GPS capability, shelters and veterinary hospitals carry universal scanners that allow them to look up the unique I.D. number if your pet is brought in. It is never too late to microchip your pet, and it can be done at any age!

April is National Heartworm Awareness Month! This month is to educate our clients on what heartworms are and the importance of heartworm prevention. Heartworm prevention plays a vital role in keeping our pets healthy. With climate change, there has been an influx in cases of heartworm disease in areas that used to not be affected as badly. While heartworm disease is treatable for dogs, there is not currently a treatment protocol for cats. This disease can cause chronic lung issues, heart failure, and even death if it is not treated properly.
