Foster homes are great for so many reasons, one being that they sometimes end up adopting their foster animal! Congratulations to Swiss Roll, who went home with this kind gal and her husband a while back. Swiss Roll needed to be in a home to recover from a urinary tract infection (he’s all better now). He was crying in pain and we hated the idea of him holding in his bladder as he sat in the cage at our shelter. Emily reports that Swiss Roll is a great house guest and gets along well with her cat too! Thank you for fostering and adopting him!
Dr. Phil Good, owner of Town & Country Veterinary Clinic, received his Bachelor of Science with highest honors in Chemical Engineering from Georgia Tech in 2006. Phil finally came to his senses, realizing he’d much rather work with animals than in a chemical plant. Dr. Good obtained his doctorate in veterinary medicine from UGA in 2011.
It’s all about Thyme! He was hand-picked by this duo to be their new furkid. And Thyme’s new mom can take him to work with her too — she works at a doggie day care center. Great perks! Congrats and thank you for adopting!
This couple saw Pancia online and fell in love. They weren’t able to come to our adoption event on Sunday, so they made arrangements to meet her on Monday at our vet office. They decided that they couldn’t leave without her and signed on the dotted line. Happy purrs to Pancia and her new mom…
Pepe went home with this nice couple for a trial adoption. It didn’t take long for him to melt their hearts. It’s now official, he is part of the family. Happy purrs sweet boy!
