El Sobrante Veterinary Hospital

Oona Here!

What a crazy week! Usually I head into the office on Thursdays, but this week mom said it was something called "Thanksgiving" and so the hospital was closed! No one ran that by me! However, I also learned that "Thanksgiving" is a day that means my siblings and I get Turkey on on dinner so I got over it pretty quick!

As usual, I try to learn as much as I can - and the thing I heard the most from everyone I met on Thursday was reciting what they were thankful for! I LOVE that idea! I am thankful for SO many things! I am thankful for turkey and I am thankful for all my beds and the big box that transports me and mom to work and hiking trails... but I am MOST excited for the staff at ESVH.

This crew is something special! There have been a lot of crazy events and set backs since we opened - but the one constant since we opened is the care and compassion the radiates from each and every staff member. This team is the real deal! They love the patients and clients and they work so hard to make sure everyone receives the best care.... and we have so much fun! Also they are all A+ tummy scratchers! I am going top share some of my favorite shot from moms camera roll!

From all of us, we hope that you found someone or something to be thankful and celebrated with your furry family members!

Missing from Kelvin Rd and Rincon Rd in El Sobrante.
A third cat that went missing with these two on the same night was found in Hercules.
Please contact the numbers on the flyer if you spot either of these kitties 💔

Today, we remember Dr. Lisa Franck, who passed away one year ago. Some of us learned from her, while others are learning about her. Some were fortunate to learn skills that they didn’t have before, because she was willing to teach them.

Dr. Franck impacted thousands of lives, both animal and human. She fought for human rights as well. Her passion, s***k, sass, knowledge, and dedication is deeply missed. It is our goal to help more in the feline community, to fill the void that she left behind. Her compassion for helping neglected and homeless cats is irreplaceable. Please spay and neuter your pets, in honor of Dr. Franck. We are sending hugs to her sister Sharon and her family today.

*For each cat that comes through the clinic, we think of how she would threaten to give them “kisses on the lips” because of how cute they are. 🐈🐈‍⬛🐈🐈‍⬛🐈
