Is This Your Postcard ?

We've received a postcard which was addressed to our mailbox but not to us.  It was addressed, cryptically, to "K & R" and signed "Doug & Marilyn".  So if you have friends of that name who have been on holiday in Hawaii (Kauai), it is probably yours. Give us a call if so - 250 246 1509

Next Veterinary Visit ~ Rabies Alert

Rabies, in bats, has been identified this autumn in the Cowichan Valley. I was personally involved with one such case in a bat caught b a domestic cat. Clients are therefore urged to update their animal's rabies vaccination status. Vaccinations are normally administered at 3 year intervals as adults and 1 year after initial inoculation.

The next veterinary visit will be on Wednesday, December 21st. Please email erskine2814@outlook.com or hone 250 436 0045 for an appointment.

Missing Cat Found

Edith Hyatt is pleased to inform you that her new cat has been found!  Lilly had been hiding in the house the whole time, and eating the visiting foster cat’s food and using the litter box, so had not been starving or cold…just very shy.  Edith thanks you for your concern.  (The live trap they put outside with cat food bait worked well for a greedy and embarrassed raccoon.)
