Our week just got a little bigger 👀

Apparently five days without seeing your pets was simply too long for us. And judging by these two, the demand was getting… ✨aggressive✨

We’re easing Thursdays into the rotation with technician appointments throughout September, giving you more flexibility for vaccines, nail trims, bloodwork, and other tech services. Then, starting in October, we’re going all in with doctor appointments too! 🩺🐾

More availability, more flexibility for our clients, and most importantly, another day each week for us to pretend we’re capable of maintaining professional boundaries when someone brings in a cute puppy.

Swamp Rabbit Animal Hospital is now OPEN THURSDAYS from 8 AM–1 PM! 💚

📅 September: Technician appointments
🩺 Starting in October: Doctor + technician appointments
⏰ Thursday Hours: 8 AM–1 PM

Give us a call to schedule — Thursdays are officially part of the crew. 💚🐶🐱

Hearts Of Valor Rescue is an amazing rescue to support. Bianca goes out of her way to say so many animals especially the ones in need and finds them a wonderful home.

It’s been a minute since we’ve checked in with the actual management team around here. 🐾

Our clinic pet crew has grown a little since our last roll call, so here’s a peek at some familiar faces — plus our newest additions:

👂 Boberry Van Gogh Earnhardt (Bo) — one ear, several names, zero concerns.
👁️ Stormy — one eye, full surveillance capabilities.

Despite having slightly fewer original parts than usual, these two have fit into our already-questionable crew suspiciously well. They’ve settled right in, claimed their territory, and clearly found their people.

Between them and the rest of our resident crew, we’re starting to think Swamp Rabbit Animal Hospital may be less of a veterinary clinic and more of a very niche collection we’re accidentally building.

We’re not planning to acquire another clinic animal anytime soon…

…but historically, that has meant absolutely nothing.

Stay tuned. Apparently they just keep finding us. 🐾💚

Higgins came in for a regular exam and very generously left behind enough hair to qualify as a second patient. 🐻

To be clear, this was not a grooming appointment. Dr. Sam just sees a hairy dog with a loose undercoat and considers it a personal invitation. ✨

Higgins remained completely unbothered while she brushed… and brushed… and somehow kept finding more. Akitas apparently come with an unlimited fur supply.

Just a routine exam with a complimentary de-Higgins-ing. 🤍🐾

🐾🌟 Pet of the Month: Chica! 🌟🐾

This month, we’re celebrating a very special girl— Miss Chica! 💚

Chica has been part of the Swamp Rabbit family since she became our very first emergency patient, and she continues to remind us what resilience looks like. No matter what she’s facing, she greets us with a wagging tail, a happy heart, and excitement to see her friends at the clinic.

One of our favorite things about Chica is her incredible spirit. She has a way of brightening everyone’s day with her sweet personality, and she’s a wonderful reminder to appreciate the little moments.

A huge shoutout to her amazing family, whose love and dedication to her never go unnoticed. Watching the bond they share is just as inspiring as Chica herself.

We’re so lucky to know you, sweet girl. Congratulations on being our Pet of the Month, Chica! 💚🐾

🌟 Employee of the Month: Halley! 🌟

This month’s Employee of the Month is someone who helps keep Swamp Rabbit Animal Hospital running smoothly every day—Halley! 💚

Halley keeps our team organized, handles every task with care, and never lets the little details fall through the cracks. Her reliability, attention to detail, and willingness to jump in wherever she’s needed make her an invaluable part of the Swamp Rabbit family.

We also want to recognize the incredible effort she put into organizing our recent Paws for a Cause event. From coordinating vendors and rescue partners to making sure every detail came together, Halley played a huge role in making the event a success for our community and the cats we were able to help.

Thank you, Halley, for everything you do for our team, our patients, and our community. We’re so grateful to have you as part of the Swamp Rabbit family. Congratulations—you’ve earned it! 🐾💚
