Happy International Family Day from The Gentle Vet 💕🐾

Family comes in all shapes, sizes… and species. From wagging tails to soft purrs, our pets are more than companions—they’re part of the family.

Just like any loved one, they deserve care, attention, and regular check-ups to stay happy and healthy. Annual exams help us catch concerns early and keep your furry family members thriving for years to come.

📅 If your pet is due (or overdue!) for their yearly visit, give us a call or text us—we’d love to see you both! 973-335-6500

Tell us below—who’s part of your pet family? 🐶🐱🐾

🌿🐣 It’s Baby Wildlife Season! 🦌🌿

During this time of year, you may start seeing baby wildlife out and about — especially fledgling birds and young fawns. While it may look like they are alone, most of the time their parents are nearby keeping watch. 💛

🐦 Fledgling birds often leave the nest before they can fully fly. This is a normal part of learning, and mom and dad are usually close by feeding and protecting them while they practice!

🦌 You may also spot a fawn resting quietly in your yard or another peaceful area. Mother deer intentionally leave their babies in safe spaces while they search for food during the day — and they DO come back for them.

Please remember:
❌ Do not touch or move baby wildlife
❌ Do not assume they are abandoned
✅ Observe from a distance and give them space

The best thing we can do for wild babies is let their parents care for them naturally. 💚

Happy World Veterinary Day! 🐾💙

Today, we’re celebrating the heart and soul of our hospital—our incredible veterinary team who work tirelessly to keep your furry (and sometimes tiny!) family members happy and healthy.

A special thank you to Dr. Dulude; our dedicated owner, and Dr. Gwiazdowski, whose compassion and expertise make a difference in the lives of every patient they see. From wagging tails to gentle purrs—and even the occasional pocket pet—they treat each animal with the utmost care and love.

We’re so grateful to be part of a community that trusts us with their pets’ care. Give your pets an extra hug today in honor of the people who help keep them thriving!

It’s Veterinary Receptionist Week, and we’re celebrating one of the very best—Roxxann! 🐾

If you’ve called our office, checked in for an appointment, or scheduled a visit, chances are you’ve been helped by Roxxann. She truly does it all—from answering phones and greeting clients, to checking patients in and out, scheduling appointments, scanning charts (making our transition to paperless a breeze!), submitting insurance claims, and so much more.

Her kindness, organization, and dedication help keep our days running smoothly and make every visit a little more welcoming 💙

We’d love your help celebrating her!
If Roxxann has made your experience here a great one, drop a comment below and share your favorite “paw-sitive” moment with her 🐶🐱

Thank you, Roxxann—we’re so lucky to have you!
