May 2024
It is with a heavy heart that we announce the passing of our beloved hospital cat, Funky.
Funky was diagnosed with an inoperable tumor on his heart last year and with the dedication and love from our staff, we were able to enjoy Funky for an extra year.
He will be missed more than we can express.

HOLLY

Holly Banno, our senior technician, has been with us since 2004.

Jodie Weston, our senior technician, was a client for many years before coming on board our staff in early 2004. She comes from an extensive background in retail customer service and her strongest asset is an excellent ability for dealing with the public. Jodie also excels in the fine art of handling our often anxious feline patients. She has a 5 year-old Boston Terrier named Jagger (pictured).
