Lily Lily came to us from an owner that could not keep her. She is super sweet, but super shy. Her favorite hobby is serenading Dr. Ezell at lunchtime.
Hobbs (October 2009 - October 2024) Hobbs and his brother Calvin were abandoned at our front door when they were kittens. Hobbs is a very special kitty. He is our very own "professional greeter", and he loves to supervise check in and check out at reception. He is quite the prankster, and nothing pleases him more than to hear Callie Mae scream. He likes to hide and ambush her, but she gives it right back with a good "left hook". One of his main hobbies is lizard watching at the front window or exit door. He also likes his daily sun baths at our front windows. We had to say good bye to Hobbs 10/22/2024. He will be greatly missed.
Miss Daisy (May 2005 - January 2024) Miss Daisy came to us because her owner had to enter an assisted living facility and was unable to take her along as planned. She loves to take her daily naps in a basket on our front lobby shelves. She often startles new clients when she pops her head up. She will make time in her busy day of napping to leave her basket and greet clients. She makes them feel welcome and loved! We had to say good bye to Miss Daisy 1/22/2024 due to her progressed renal failure. She is dearly missed.
Callie Mae (September 2007 - December 2020) Callie Mae came to live with us because her elderly owner passed away. She quickly assumed the role of "PRINCESS" and ruled over her subjects. She could be found napping in many spots around the clinic. She loved to supervise Kacie at reception and Kim in her office. She was beautiful, and boy did she know it. We had to say good bye to her 12/26/2020 due to cancer. She will be dearly missed.
