The Best of 2017 NOVA Cat Clinic Instagram

What a tremendous year it’s been for NOVA Cat Clinic. From the revitalization of our Instagram in the spring – currently orchestrated by our veterinary assistants Sara & Sophie (Sophie speaking, hello!) – donating HUNDREDS of pounds of food to the DC Humane Rescue Alliance over the summer, solidifying our Chris Griffey Memorial Feline Foundation independent 501(c)3 in the fall, and moving to our new building on Cathedral Lane this winter we are extraordinarily proud of all that we have accomplished in 2017.

Our kitten foundation, run by our very own mother of cats Ellen LVT (@thecatlvt), rescued and cared for 44 critical care kittens this year alone! For many of the kittens, Ellen achieved what can only be described as miracles. From differently-abled (paraplegic) Dory, Dakota aka Princess Poops (unable to control her bowel movements), Stevie the eyeless wonder, Remi the vampire kitten (neonate blood transfusion recipient), the several litters of c-section kittens that Ellen expertly helped adapt to life in their new world, and many more – every single life deserved a chance. We are so incredibly grateful to all those who donated to charity over the year, for the Amazing Acrocats who helped raise money while they were performing at NextStop Theater in Herndon, and to Melissa Lew (@mlewjewelry) for designing jewelry for our kitten foundation. To everyone who donated, no matter how small, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Every single penny makes a difference for the critical neonates in our care. With a fully functional 501(c)3, an expanded network of foster homes, and broadened connections with other local rescue organizations we are eager to help even more kittens in 2018.

Over the year our doctors cared for cases ranging from routine prevention to dire emergencies. From upper respiratory infections to cats falling from balconies, each and every case received no less than 100% of our compassion and care. All of our doctors – Dr. Brown, Dr. Barron, Dr. Wootton, Dr. Health, and Dr. Anderson – have been nothing short of absolutely amazing. Our weekly Facebook live coffee talks with Dr. Barron and Ellen brought veterinary topics of all kinds to the table, allowing us to interact with YOU and answer your questions live as you ask them. We set the bar high in 2017, and we have no doubt that we will be pushing it to new heights in the year to come.
