Jester was found by a client as a stray at 6 weeks old in August of 2020 with an upper respiratory infection. He was just so cute we asked our client if we could keep him. Since then, he has provided the staff and our clients with a lot of love and entertainment.

Marie - The Resident Napper

Marie is our medium haired black and white cat. Marie came to us as an 8 week old stray wearing a collar in April of 2016. No one ever claimed her so we kept her. She spends her days sleeping in various places, such as on top of our freshly cleaned surgical equipment. You could say she hold things down around here.
