The love we share with our pets stays with us forever. 🧡

In honor of October 27, a special day in Día de Mu***os traditions when beloved pets are to return to visit us, our GCVS NASA Parkway team created a beautiful ofrenda to welcome and remember our beloved companions who have crossed the rainbow bridge. 🌼🕯️

As veterinary professionals, we have the privilege of caring for so many beloved pets and forming meaningful connections with their families. This ofrenda is a special way for our team to honor the lives of pets we've loved, cared for, and said goodbye to along the way.

To all the beloved pets who have left paw prints on our hearts, you are forever loved, remembered, and missed.

It was a spook-tacular weekend for our GCVS NASA Parkway team! 👻

We had a fang-tastic time joining our friends at South Belt Animal Hospital for their Howl-O-Ween Open House!

Thank you, Southbelt Animal Hospital, for inviting us to join the festivities! 🧡

Our GCVS team had a great time supporting the American Heart Association annual Heart Walk in Houston this past weekend! ❤️

Members of our GCVS Houston Emergency team were on-site to provide CPR demonstrations and share the importance of knowing how to respond when an emergency strikes.

We're grateful to have been part of such a meaningful event, connecting with our community, supporting an incredible cause, and sharing a glimpse into the lifesaving work our team does every day

One year of GCVS NASA Parkway! 🎉

Over the past year, our incredible team has worked around the clock to provide compassionate emergency and specialty care, built meaningful relationships, and made a difference in the lives of the patients and families we serve.

Of course, we couldn't let this milestone pass without a little celebration! Our team is marking the occasion with a much-deserved caffeine-and-cake break! ☕️🎂

To our dedicated team members, referring veterinary community, and the pet owners who have welcomed and supported us, THANK YOU!

Here's to one amazing year and many more to come!

We love seeing our specialists share their knowledge beyond hospital walls!

A few weeks ago, Dr. Christopher Jones, board-certified internist at GCVS NASA Parkway, joined a referral relations panel at the Ethos Veterinary Health national meeting. Dr. Jones shared his perspective on building strong relationships between specialty and primary care teams to provide the best possible care and experience for mutual patients and their families.

We’re proud to have Dr. Jones representing GCVS NASA Parkway and contributing to important conversations across veterinary medicine!

Over the past year, Cash has become quite a familiar patient at GCVS Houston. 💙

His journey with our Surgery team began with care for a right medial patellar luxation (MPL). After reinjuring the leg, Cash needed a revision surgery, and just a few months later, he was back for surgery on his left knee.

Through it all, Cash has remained his sweet, cuddly self. He loves people, never turns down some extra pets, and has become a favorite with our North Treatment and ICU/IMC teams!

At home, this little 7-pound pup is a total momma's boy. He loves walks, traveling, watching TV, and keeping his mom close by. He even recently celebrated his recovery in Cancun with his family!

Cash's family has been right by his side through every surgery and setback, giving him all the love and support he needs along the way. We've loved getting to know Cash and are all rooting for him as he continues his recovery!

Not all heroes wear capes; some have whiskers and a little cattitude. 🐱

When Yuki, a 15-year-old Ragdoll, needed a blood transfusion during his hospitalization at GCVS NASA Parkway, an unexpected hero stepped up: Kitty, the cat of our Education Coordinator, Amber. Kitty became one of the first donors through our new in-house blood donation program, giving Yuki the blood he needed.

Yuki’s family stayed by his side throughout his hospitalization and even got to meet Kitty. After her donation, they gave this little hero plenty of love—and a well-deserved Churu while she recovered.

And the best part? Yuki is doing so much better! At his recent Internal Medicine recheck with Dr. Christopher Jones, he was brighter, more active, eating well, and showing significant improvement in his lab work.

Way to go, Yuki—and thank you, Kitty, for lending a helping paw! 🐾
