🚨 RED CARD ALERT 🚨

What foul would your pet get called for during the World Cup? 😂

⛈️🧨Anxiety doesn't just affect humans—our pets can experience it too! And summertime brings extra stressors like travel, fireworks, and thunderstorms. We are here to help you and your pet enjoy the season.

If you notice signs of stress or anxiety in your pet, schedule an appointment so we can discuss ways to help them feel more comfortable and supported. 🩵

Psst…tell your cat to get ready cause it’s National Hug Your Cat Day! So now they HAVE to let you give them a snuggle. 😻
How did it go with your cat? Let us know in the comments!

A couple of our recent and very adorable patients! This is Maizie and Brewer!

As flowers bloom, so do risks for our pets, with plenty of opportunity for them to breathe in particles, scratch an eye, poke a paw, or even get snagged by a branch or thorn, all of which could potentially lead to infections.

Infections can be sneaky subtle—If your pet is not acting right and you are not sure what it is, get them checked! Like with most conditions, the sooner we treat an infection, the better your pet will feel.

🍔 A burger… made their way 🐾
Today is National Hamburger Day, but your pet doesn’t need the drive-thru version to feel included.

In fact, many classic burger ingredients—like onions, garlic, and heavy seasoning—can upset their stomach (or worse). The good news? You can still treat them—just a little differently. Think:
🥩 Plain, lean protein
🥕 Pet-safe veggies
🚫 No added salt, spices, or toppings

Because the best treats aren’t the ones we share…they’re the ones we choose with them in mind. ❤️
If you’re ever unsure what’s safe, we’re always here to help!

Memorial Day Closure

In observance of Memorial Day, our hospital will be closed today, May 25 to honor and remember those who have served our country.

We will resume regular hours on Tuesday, May 26, 2026. We hope you have a safe and meaningful Memorial Day.

If your pet has a medical emergency please call Animal Medical Center of Plainfield at (815) 436-8387

🤩Does your pet resemble a certain celebrity or character? Maybe a green one with pointy ears, that wears a robe, and eats frogs? 🙃 ​
