Snagglepuss
Mount Vernon, Washington
Status: Retired
Snaggle Puss was born in
July of 1990. She came to the Parker Way Veterinary Clinic in poor shape.
Her teeth were bad and 70% of her fur was gone due to the fleas that were
living with her. Everyone fell in love with her and we decided to fix her
up. After a little dental work, a bath, some flea control, and a lot of TLC,
she blossomed into a very beautiful cat. She loves to be up front. She'll
sunbathe on the counter by the window; sleep in the recycle bin; help with
typing and the billing (much to our office manager's dismay); but one of her
favorite things to do is to greet the clients. She figures everyone comes
in just to see her. Her passion is to eat whatever she can find. Whether it
is someone's lunch or food that we've sold to clients (she sits on the bag
of food daring anyone to take it from her). If she can get into it she will.
She has even tried to leave with the drivers that deliver the food. Even with
all the trouble she gets into, we still spoil her rotten and it's never dull
with her around. Both Sammy and Snaggle have their
own ways of helping. Sammy will stay near the animals and seems to offer some
moral support and Snaggle will stay near the clients and offer a comforting
nudge. One way that both have helped is that they are our blood donors. They
share the joys and sorrows that we've all experienced in working at the clinic.
They have become an important part of our team and our lives. (Pictures by
