🚨🐾 National Animal Disaster Preparedness Day 🐾🚨
Disasters can happen without warning - and having a plan in place can make all the difference for your pets’ safety.
At NorthStar VETS & PASE, we’re reminding pet owners today to include their animals in every emergency plan. Whether it’s a storm, fire, or evacuation, your pets depend on you for protection and preparedness.
✔️ Have a pet emergency kit ready (food, water, medications, leash/carrier)
✔️ Make sure your pet is microchipped and ID tags are up to date
✔️ Know which hotels, shelters, or friends can accept pets
✔️ Keep copies of medical records accessible
✔️ Practice safe evacuation with your pets when possible
Being prepared helps ensure your pets stay safe, calm, and cared for when it matters most. 💙
Keep an eye out for our Pet Parent First Aid Nights - an opportunity to learn hands-on skills and be even more prepared for your pet’s health and safety.
If you need help building a pet emergency plan, our team is here to support you.

👁️✨ Spotlight On: Ophthalmology ✨👁️
This month, we’re shining a light on our Ophthalmology Department - the dedicated team focused on protecting one of your pet’s most important senses: their vision.
From diagnosing eye infections and dry eye disease to managing cataracts, glaucoma, and complex corneal conditions, our ophthalmology specialists use advanced tools and techniques to help pets see clearly and live comfortably.
Pets can’t tell us when something is wrong with their eyes, so subtle signs matter - squinting, redness, discharge, cloudiness, or changes in vision are all reasons to schedule an exam.
📅 The best part? You can get a same-week appointment at all four of our locations, making it easier than ever to get your pet the care they need quickly.
Our goal is simple: to preserve vision, relieve discomfort, and improve quality of life for every patient who walks (or is carried) through our doors. 💙
If you’ve noticed changes in your pet’s eyes, don’t wait - early detection makes all the difference.

Happy National Doodle Day!
Did you know?
When you mix one dog breed with a Miniature Poodle, Standard Poodle, or Toy Poodle, you get a doodle!
While some doodle breeds were thought to have been bred since the 1960s, the first Labradoodle on record was created in 1989.
Comment a picture of your doodle below - we love seeing their precious faces! Sending all the hugs and love from NorthStar VETS & PASE. 🫶🐕
