MLK Day reminds us that change starts with care, compassion, and action. At Prompt Vet, we see this every day in the love and attention pets give us, and the care we give them in return. Whether it’s through routine checkups, vaccination, enrichment, or just spending quality time together, small acts of kindness can make a big difference in a pet’s life.
Today, honor Dr. King’s legacy by showing extra compassion—to your pets, your community, or animals in need. A little love and care goes a long way.

It’s Dress Up Your Pet Day—but for cats, less is more. Is your cat team bandana, bow tie, or absolutely not? Simple, lightweight accessories like breakaway collars, bow ties, or bandanas are usually better tolerated than full outfits. Always watch for signs of stress and keep it comfortable.

Those sudden bursts of speed—known as frenetic random activity periods (FRAPs)—are usually caused by excitement or extra energy. Daily exercise, mental stimulation, and consistent routines can help keep things balanced.
