Sally and I loved the video! Thanks! xoxo

Thank you so much for working Murphy into the schedule at such short notice, so he could be seen before our trip. Dr. Watson and his entire team are the absolute best - trust them completely with our fur babies!
We are here!! Great staff! They give all sorts of free things on the first visit! So far, we are happy!!!
Thank you for supporting the Children's Business Fair by helping spread the word Kids Business Fair - Fairfax😊😍
I just saw a FB posting about Simparica and seizures. Reportedly it causes this very serious and life long reaction in 20% of dogs. This was prescribed for Murphy on our last visit. We haven’t used it yet, and I’ll be returning it this weekend for refund. Please let us, your clients know of information you have concerning this medicine.

Shout out to Rachel for going above and beyond so our Lucy can get her medicine. This is why we love VCA university Vet Clinic! 👍
Dear VCA Staff, I was so very touched to receive the card with your handwritten sympathies for the passing of our Mylo. I know our time knowing you has been short and under sad circumstances, but I am so grateful for the entire staff. Thank you for loving words and I appreciate your kindness more than you know.
Happy Howloween!
Your team is absolutely AMAZING!!!! We could actually feel how much you all love and truly care about Waffle after our first visit. The follow up calls and card were even more reassuring. Then to receive a card regarding my daughter just shows that you listen and care about Waffles family as well. Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful words! I have definitely been recommending your practice and will continue to do so. We will see you all on Sat morning!

Today reminds us how much we love our friendly, furry, kitty companions.
In fact, we love them even if they’re not that furry — or friendly, for that matter! And since we’re responsible for their health and wellbeing let's be sure they are getting their annual and semi-annual check-ups!

Adult cats should see their veterinarian at least once yearly, although senior cats and cats with medical conditions may need veterinary care every 3–6 months.

Today is a day to celebrate one of man’s most common and ancient pets. They have even been worshiped as gods (we see you, Egypt.) Well, it is not surprising, Cats are one of the coolest beings on the planet: they are independent, inquisitive, adventurous, have an amazing physiognomy, and the power to heal by themselves — at least most of the time.

Happy National Watermelon Day🍉
Lots of summer cookouts end with cool, refreshing watermelon. Watermelon is fun for pets; the high-water content hydrates them, and the glucose gives them energy. The folly is that pets often swallow the seeds or eat the rind and both can block the GI tract. To avoid GI blockages, cut the melon from the rind and remove the seeds before sharing this classic summer treat with your pet.

Has your cat been itching more often? Atopic dermatitis (atopy) is a common cause of skin problems in cats. When a cat with allergies encounters an environmental protein to which it is allergic, it sets off a reaction leading to skin problems. If you suspect your cat has a new skin problem, call your veterinarian to schedule a visit 🐾

Aging cats are prone to a number of diseases, but the three most common are chronic kidney disease (CKD), diabetes mellitus and hyperthyroidism.

These conditions can be difficult to distinguish clinically because all three tend to cause weight loss, increased thirst/urination and a generally unkempt appearance. Blood tests and urinalysis are often required to determine the cause of a cat’s illness and formulate an effective treatment plan.
