It’s a Nutcracker Christmas this year for our annual entry into the Lawrence Festival of Trees, going on now at Liberty Hall. We are so appreciative of Karen Bayouth’s time and talents in creating these beautiful trees!
Yesterday was a very difficult day for us at the Animal Hospital of Lawrence as we had to say goodbye to our best friend, Hotrod. Hotrod was rounding the corner to 19 years young. He has been in our family since 2008. Hotrod stole the hearts of everyone who walked in our doors and imagining life without him is unbearable. We will all miss his purring cuddles and silly ways. We love you Rod!

Attention Clients,
An update on our plans for scheduling moving forward:
Thank you all for your patience with our current system of reduced staffing, reduced doctor availability, limited appointments, and curbside service. We will continue as is for another two weeks. At that time we should return to our normal scheduling with full staff and doctors and able to accommodate more appointments and surgeries. We plan to continue curbside service awhile longer with a yet to be determined date to allow people into the building.
If possible, please consider emailing [email protected] with questions, prescription requests, and to schedule appointments. With the curbside service, our phones lines are often times completely full! It's easier for us to call you back if needed once receiving an email.
We greatly appreciate everyone making their flea/tick/heartworm, pet food, and prescription purchases through our office. Most often we offer the best prices and rebates and you are supporting your local business!
We appreciate all of you and thank you again for being patient with us through this confusing time.
Best,
Animal Hospital of Lawrence
Attention clients,
An update on pets and Covid19: There have been a few animals potentially exposed and testing positive in the US and around the world. This is still very rare. It does not appear pets are actively transmitting the virus, but can pick it up from their human or potentially other animals. The news release from KVMA and AVMA below is long but provides helpful information and recommendations from the CDC:
Confirmation of COVID-19 in Two Pet Cats in New York
Washington, D.C. April 22, 2020 – The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the United States Department of Agriculture's (USDA) National Veterinary Services Laboratories (NVSL) today announced the first confirmed cases of SARS-CoV-2 (the virus that causes COVID-19) infection in two pet cats. These are the first pets in the United States to test positive for SARS-CoV-2.
The cats live in two separate areas of New York state. Both had mild respiratory illness and are expected to make a full recovery. SARS-CoV-2 infections have been reported in very few animals worldwide, mostly in those that had close contact with a person with COVID-19.
At this time, routine testing of animals is not recommended. Should other animals be confirmed positive for SARS-CoV-2 in the United States, USDA will post the findings at www.aphis.usda.gov/aphis/ourfocus/animalhealth/.... State animal health and public health officials will take the lead in making determinations about whether animals should be tested for SARS-CoV-2.
In the New York cases announced today, a veterinarian tested the first cat after it showed mild respiratory signs. No individuals in the household were confirmed to be ill with COVID-19. The virus may have been transmitted to this cat by mildly ill or asymptomatic household members or through contact with an infected person outside its home.
Samples from the second cat were taken after it showed signs of respiratory illness. The owner of the cat tested positive for COVID-19 prior to the cat showing signs. Another cat in the household has shown no signs of illness.
Both cats tested presumptive positive for SARS-CoV-2 at a private veterinary laboratory, which then reported the results to state and federal officials. The confirmatory testing was conducted at NVSL and included collection of additional samples. NVSL serves as an international reference laboratory and provides expertise and guidance on diagnostic techniques, as well as confirmatory testing for foreign and emerging animal diseases. Such testing is required for certain animal diseases in the U.S. in order to comply with national and international reporting procedures. The World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE) considers SARS-CoV-2 an emerging disease, and therefore USDA must report confirmed U.S. animal infections to the OIE.
Public health officials are still learning about SARS-CoV-2, but there is no evidence that pets play a role in spreading the virus in the United States. Therefore, there is no justification in taking measures against companion animals that may compromise their welfare. Further studies are needed to understand if and how different animals, including pets, could be affected.
Until we know more, CDC recommends the following:
Do not let pets interact with people or other animals outside the household.
Keep cats indoors when possible to prevent them from interacting with other animals or people.
Walk dogs on a leash, maintaining at least 6 feet from other people and animals.
Avoid dog parks or public places where a large number of people and dogs gather.
If you are sick with COVID-19 (either suspected or confirmed by a test), restrict contact with your pets and other animals, just like you would around other people.
When possible, have another member of your household care for your pets while you are sick.
Avoid contact with your pet, including petting, snuggling, being kissed or licked, and sharing food or bedding.
If you must care for your pet or be around animals while you are sick, wear a cloth face covering and wash your hands before and after you interact with them.
While additional animals may test positive as infections continue in people, it is important to note that performing this animal testing does not reduce the availability of tests for humans. The U.S. government remains committed to increasing nationwide COVID-19 testing for Americans. In fact, the United States has conducted more than four million COVID-19 tests for humans, which is more tests than the following nations combined: France, the UK, South Korea, Japan, Singapore, India, Austria, Australia, Sweden, and Canada.

Good morning friends and clients of Animal Hospital of Lawrence,
WE ARE STILL OPEN!! We are taking all precautions necessary to keep our clients and staff members healthy during this time of COVID-19. To ensure everyone stays well, we are only allowing staff in the building starting today at 1:30 PM. Below are directions for appointments and picking up medications or food.

Staff of Animal Hospital of Lawrence
Dear Clients,
We understand the uncertainty and chaos we are all facing right now. We want everyone to know our current hours and staffing will remain the same. It is important to factor in pets to your increased health regimen. Below is information and a link to the American Veterinary Medical Association concerning COVID-19.
Infectious disease experts and multiple international and domestic human and animal health organizations agree there is no evidence at this point to indicate that pets become ill with COVID-19 or that they spread it to other animals, including people.
However, out of an abundance of caution, it is recommended that those ill with COVID-19 limit contact with animals until more information is known about the virus. Have another member of your household take care of walking, feeding, and playing with your pet. If you have a service animal or you must care for your pet, then wear a facemask; don’t share food, kiss, or hug them; and wash your hands before and after any contact with them. We will be sure to post updates on this subject as they become known. Stay safe.
