As many of you know, I have a house full of pets, and all of them make periodic trips to the vet for things like check-ups, shots, spayings, neuterings, teeth cleanings, and treatment of any medical problems. So, they each have a file at the vet with their name and date of birth on it. Every year, on every birthday, our vet sends an animated online birthday card to our dog and each of our 10 cats. The card is personalized, of course. Today our cat Samantha got her birthday card for her 16th birthday. The card showed a house with the name Samantha on the mailbox. It showed cars driving up to the house that had balloon decorations on it. Then it shows inside the house with a big birthday cake that says "Happy Birthday Samantha." A group of cats are around a table with birthday hats on. Samantha is the guest of honor and as she blows out the candles on the cake, it shows a balloon over her head with various "cat wishes" going through it like a scratching post, catnip mice, treats, cat toys, etc.. At the end, it shows Samantha surrounded by all her wishes that were given to her as gifts. The last page says "Happy Birthday to Samantha from the staff of X veterinary hospital. May all your birthday wishes come true." The card has music to it too. I thought the card was really cute and neat that it was personalized. What I like is that each of our pets gets a different card and the office doesn't just send out generic cards for all pets, but a different card for each. Does your vet send birthday cards to your pets?

You spend enough there a year so that is the least they could do.
Samantha is gorgeous. Pastel tortie, I think.
Happy Birthday to Samantha girl! (forgive me for being late.)
