🐾 Extern Spotlight: Meet Meghan Cochran! 🐾

We recently had the absolute pleasure of hosting Meghan, an incredible veterinary extern from the University of Arizona (), here at Orange Grove Animal Hospital! 🐻⬇️

Meghan brings a fantastic, well-rounded background to the veterinary field. She has worked across a wide range of specialties, including general practice, emergency medicine, shelter medicine, exotic birds, and wildlife! 🦅🐱

What’s next for Meghan?

The Near Future: Upon graduation, she is excited to jump into shelter medicine with PACC!

Career Passions: She plans to continue working with exotics and wildlife throughout her entire career.

Special Interests: Her absolute favorite species to work with are cats, reptiles, and raptors! 🐍🦖

We loved having her energy, passion, and expertise on the clinic floor with us. Please join us in wishing Meghan the absolute best of luck as she finishes up vet school and steps into a bright future! 👏👏

This Thursday, June 4th, is National Hug Your Cat Day! 🐱❤️

Here is our very own Dr. Holly Merker sharing a squeeze with her beloved cat, Melon, who absolutely rocked this iconic witch costume last Halloween. 🧙‍♀️✨

Melon recently crossed the rainbow bridge, making this year’s Hug Your Cat Day incredibly bittersweet for Dr. Merker and the rest of our Orange Grove Animal Hospital family. While we can't physically hug Nibbles today, remember to cherish every single purr, headboop, and late-night cuddle we get with our fur babies.

How you can celebrate with us this Thursday:

Squeeze them extra tight: Give your living felines an extra long, loving hug (even if they give you that classic cat attitude about it).

Honor their memory: If your favorite kitty is watching over you from the rainbow bridge like Melon, take a moment to look back at your favorite photos and celebrate the love they brought into your life. 🌈

Caring for your furry family members means being there for them—and you—through every single chapter, including the hardest ones. 🤍

We are deeply moved by these incredibly kind words from James and April. Saying goodbye to a beloved pet like sweet Oreo is a heartbreaking journey that no pet parent wants to face.

At Orange Grove Animal Hospital, our mission is to provide an environment of absolute comfort, dignity, and love when it matters most. Whether it’s quiet reverence or ensuring a family has unlimited, unhurried time to say their final goodbyes, we stand by your side with compassionate care.

Thank you, James and April, for trusting our team during such a sacred moment.

Meet the heart of our team, Angela H.! 🧡

For over 15 years, Angela has been a valued part of the Orange Grove Animal Hospital family. A Tucson local since she was five, Angela’s lifelong dream was to work with animals. She joined us in 2008 while studying at Pima Medical Institute and has loved every moment of caring for our community's pets ever since.

Outside of work, she stays busy with her wonderfully supportive husband of 17 years and their three children. And, of course, her life is complete with her two household-running dogs, Ducky and Dio! 🐾 Stop by and say hello to Angela next time you’re in with your fur babies.

We’re continuing our Exotic Animal Series with Vaccine 101 for ferrets! In our latest blog post, "Protecting Your Small but Mighty Companions," we cover exactly what your slinky friends need to stay protected.

Ferrets are highly susceptible to two very serious diseases: Canine Distemper Virus (CDV) and Rabies. Distemper is incredibly contagious and, sadly, almost always fatal in ferrets. Since the virus can easily be tracked indoors on shoes or clothes, even 100% indoor ferrets are at risk!

The absolute best way to keep your ferret safe and healthy? Proper, annual vaccinations! 🩺

Want to learn more about the specific vaccines your ferret needs? Head to the link in our bio or visit orangegroveah.com to read our full guide. 📖

We’re breaking down Vaccine 101 for your furry exotic friends—starting with rabbits!

It’s a common misconception that indoor bunnies don't need to be vaccinated. However, they are still at risk for serious, highly contagious illnesses like Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease Virus (RHDV2). This virus can easily be tracked indoors on shoes, clothing, or even by mosquitos and flies. The good news? It is entirely preventable with a safe and effective annual vaccine!

Keeping up with preventative care ensures your long-eared companions live their happiest, healthiest lives. 🥕🤎

Say hello to our newest friendly face at the front desk, Lyra! 👋

Lyra is a true Tucson native, born and raised right here in Arizona. Her lifelong passion for animal care began early, inspired by watching her aunt work as a veterinary technician. She graduated from Carrington College in 2019 as a certified Veterinary Assistant and has spent a few years working as a clinical technician, training in various areas across the hospital. 🩺 That means she has a deep understanding of veterinary medicine to support our patients and their people. While she loved working directly with the animals, she found her true calling was in connecting with clients like you!

When she's not here, Lyra is an outdoor enthusiast who loves hiking, traveling, and spending time with her daughter and friends. Her home is also shared with a very sassy orange tabby named Tito! 🐈🍊 (A perfect fit for the Orange Grove crew!)

We are so excited to have you on the team, Lyra! Come say hi next time you bring in your furry friend.
