🐾🎉 Happy Veterinary Practice Manager Appreciation Week! 🎉🐾

Behind every great veterinary team is a Practice Manager juggling 100 things at once… and somehow keeping it all together! 😂🐶🐱

From managing schedules and solving problems to supporting our amazing staff, keeping clients happy, and making sure the clinic runs smoothly — our Practice Manager wears MANY hats! 🎩💻🐾

They're part problem-solver, part cheerleader, part firefighter (not literally… most days 🔥😂), and 100% dedicated to making our hospital the best it can be!

💙 Here's to the organized chaos, endless multitasking, and the love that goes into keeping those tails wagging!

🐾 Happy Practice Manager Appreciation Week! 🐾

Check out that face! Michele is looking for a forever home! Looks like a good weekend to go visit the Champaign County Humane Society and see if you can find your newest furbaby. As always if you adopt from a local shelter or rescue we offer free first exams! 🐶🐱🦎🐇

5 year old Michele is looking for her new forever home!

Michele is an affectionate and playful girl! She loves to chase wand toys and then settle on your lap to be spoiled with pets. She loves watching the wildlife outside of the window and often likes to tell you about the things she sees.

Michele has Feline Eosinophilic Granuloma Complex on her upper lip, which has caused a cute looking permanent frown. Feline eosinophilic granuloma complex (or EGC) is a group of inflammatory skin and oral conditions in cats driven by an overactive immune response, most commonly triggered by allergies. Any additional treatment for EGC should be discussed with your veterinarian, as of right now, her lip is not bothering her!

Michele has a positive history with other cats in the home as well as children as young as 2 years old and up. She has never been around dogs, so we are unsure what she thinks of them.

If you are interested in adopting Michele, stop in and ask our front desk staff to meet her!

🐾💛 A LITTLE EXTRA LOVE FOR OUR GOLDEN-AGED PETS! 💛🐾
Our senior pets may slow down a little, but they still have so much love, life, and happiness to share! 🐶🐱
Here are a few ways to help your furry family members enjoy their golden years:
🐾 Schedule regular wellness exams – Senior pets benefit from checkups every 6 months to catch potential health concerns early.
🐾 Keep them moving – Gentle walks and light play help maintain mobility and muscle strength.
🐾 Watch their weight – A healthy weight can make a big difference in joint health and overall wellness.
🐾 Feed a balanced diet – Their nutritional needs may change as they age.
🐾 Pay attention to changes – Increased thirst, changes in appetite, stiffness, bad breath, or changes in behavior shouldn't be ignored.
🐾 Give them extra comfort – Soft bedding, easy access to food and water, and a warm cozy spot can make their days more comfortable.
❤️ Remember: Getting older isn't a disease, and senior pets deserve to feel their very best at every age!
Let's help our beloved seniors make the most of their golden years. Because they may be getting older, but they'll always be our babies! 🐾💕
