🚨 Please SHARE to find his home! 🐱

This chilly morning, this sweet orange kitty wandered into Herman Motors, looking for a warm place to hang out! With his happy motor running, we think he might be missing home!

Thankfully, he’s now safe and warm at our clinic while we try to track down his family! He has no microchip or collar.

Does he look familiar? Do you recognize this handsome fella or know where he might live?

📞 Please call Rock Veterinary Clinic at 507-283-9524 if you have any information!

PLEASE SHARE! Let's help this little guy find his way back home where he belongs. ❤️

Small business. Big impact. 💛

Local businesses don't just fill a need in your neighborhood, they create jobs, build connections, and fuel the kind of community that people actually want to live in.

The ripple effect of choosing local is bigger than most people realize. Thank you for choosing our small business!

Did you know fleas can sneak in your home and live year-round? If they do get inside, it can take up to THREE MONTHS to fully clear out all stages of their life cycle to eliminate them from your home! 😱

We tend to see a lot of flea infestations this time of year. 🍂 It is a common misconception that flea/tick preventative isn’t needed past summer, however these cooler days are when fleas are looking to hitch a ride inside! All the more reason to consider continuing preventative year-round!

We do require pets to be current on flea/tick preventative for boarding and grooming at Rock Vet Clinic for this reason.

We currently carry multiple flea and tick preventative options at our clinic. We also carry a variety of products to help treat your home if you are dealing with a flea problem.

Feel free to stop in or call at 507-283-9524 and we can discuss options for your pet!

𝙒𝙤𝙧𝙡𝙙 𝙍𝙖𝙗𝙞𝙚𝙨 𝘿𝙖𝙮: 𝙆𝙣𝙤𝙬 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙍𝙞𝙨𝙠

Rabies is a serious but preventable disease and our wildlife plays an important role in its spread.

According to the Minnesota Department of Health, 𝙗𝙖𝙩𝙨 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙨𝙠𝙪𝙣𝙠𝙨 𝙖𝙧𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙣𝙖𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙖𝙡 𝙘𝙖𝙧𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙧𝙨 𝙤𝙛 𝙧𝙖𝙗𝙞𝙚𝙨 𝙞𝙣 𝙈𝙞𝙣𝙣𝙚𝙨𝙤𝙩𝙖. When rabies levels in skunks decrease, rabies in domestic animals tends to decrease as well, because many domestic animals are exposed through encounters with rabid skunks. 🦨

Bats are especially important to watch this time of year. In late summer, bats become more active as they prepare for winter, and young bats are leaving maternity roosts for the first time—meaning the chances of encountering a bat increase.

⚠️ A bat encounter can be a rabies exposure even when you don't see a bite. Bat bites can be very small and may go unnoticed.

If you:
• Wake up to find a bat in your bedroom
• Find a bat in the room with a sleeping child or vulnerable adult
• Or have any physical contact with a bat
The bat should be captured and submitted for rabies testing. 🦇

This World Rabies Day, let's keep our pets, families, and communities safe by knowing the risks and taking rabies seriously.
