By Jess CVT, on April 24th, 2012 Wouldn’t everyone love a cat that loves the little ones in our family? Marley and his sister Dixie are super sweet and get all the attention they can from their little girl sisters!

I couldn’t help but blog about this beautiful cat! Sampson came to us last week for his annual visit. His breed is a Bengal, who are known for their stunning appearance, (as you can see), intelligence and high energy levels.
Bengals are a medium to large domestic feline that originates from the crossings of the small Asian Leopard cat to the domestic cat in an attempt to create a companion with an “exotic” look but a domestic temperament. Bengals are a very energetic breed, so may not be for just anyone. They are a great companion for those owners who are willing to interact and play on a daily basis. Although they are happy to stretch out with you at naptime, they are very active for much of the day and can have very high activity levels.
I had a great time meeting Sampson and he turned out to be a healthy and HANDSOME young cat. He told me that he has a sister Bengal at home that I hope to meet soon!

By Jess CVT, on March 6th, 2012 Dr Rich attempts to keep Boo awake while he waits for his x-ray to finish processing. There must be a better choice than reciting from “The Anatomy of the Dog” because Boo looks like he is almost out!

By Jess CVT, on March 5th, 2012 In early February, Dr. Rich, Dr. Wass, and CVT’s Laura and Jess all attended the MVMA Conference for continuing education. This was Dr. Rich’s 20th year as a veterinarian and also his 20th MVMA conference…way to go for perfect attendance! Dr. Rich also spent the majority of his conference learning about orthopedic surgery from a board certified surgeon with many, many surgeries under his belt. Dr. Wass expanded her knowledge on endocrinology (internal medicine), while Jess and Laura attended a multitude of different lectures including fluid therapy, safety, bandaging and Laura is also now certified in Companion Animal CPR! Over all we had a great conference and learned many new techniques and procedures to better help care for your pet!
