🎉🐾 Happy 16th Birthday, Mosey! 🐾🎉

Today we celebrate a very special boy – Mosey, who turns 16! 🥳 Mosey is the beloved companion of his best friend, Terry, and the two share an unbreakable bond. Whether it’s napping the day away or enjoying his favorite treat (tuna, of course! 🐟), Mosey fills Terry’s life with love, comfort, and joy every single day. 💛

Mosey visits us every two weeks for cold laser therapy – a gentle, non-invasive treatment that uses light to stimulate healing, reduce inflammation, and ease pain. It’s one of the many ways Terry helps keep Mosey feeling his best in his golden years. 🌟

Mosey is not just a patient – he’s family to us here, and his calm, loving nature warms everyone’s heart. 🐱💖

Join us in wishing this sweet boy the happiest of birthdays! 🎂🎈 Here’s to many more cozy naps, tasty tuna dinners, and cherished moments with Terry. ❤️

Happy Birthday, Mosey! 🎉🐾

Here are some purrfectly fun cat facts to celebrate:

🐾 A group of cats is called a clowder.
😻 Cats sleep for 70% of their lives — true professionals at napping.
🧠 They have excellent short-term memory — so yes, they do remember you stepped on their tail…

📸 We want to see your cats! Drop a photo of your feline friend in the comments and tell us something special about them. Are they a lap cat? A diva? A master hunter of hair ties? Let’s celebrate all their quirks today!

🚨 Air Quality Alert: Keep Your Pets Safe! 🚨
Wildfires in the region have caused a drop in air quality, and just like humans, our pets can be affected too. If you’re feeling the effects—itchy eyes, coughing, or difficulty breathing—your pets probably are as well.

🐾 Tips to Keep Your Pets Safe:
🌫️ Limit outdoor time – Short potty breaks only when necessary.
🏠 Keep windows closed and use air purifiers if possible.
🐕‍🦺 Avoid vigorous exercise – Save the long walks for clearer days.
😷 Watch for signs of distress like coughing, eye irritation, or lethargy.
🐱 Small animals (especially birds, cats, and brachycephalic breeds) are more sensitive—monitor them closely.

If your pet is showing signs of respiratory issues, don’t wait—give us a call.
📞 603-279-8158 | 🌐 meredithanimalhospital.com

💬 Let us know in the comments—how are your pets handling the smoky skies? Drop a pic of them staying safe indoors! 🐾💙
