In the picture below Cricket may appear to be nursing one of our patients after surgery but she is actually enjoying the heat of a post surgery warming disc. Our patient just got in the way.

Here Cricket is actually looking for food in Lilly’s cage. Lettuce is defiantly not her style. There is no doubt that Cricket is bunny safe. Never would she soil her paws injuring another animal. She would defiantly hire a hit man for any dirty work.

Kittens are fun.

Above is a mother cat from Open Door Animal Sanctuary that we were caring for.

So are baby bunnies

Above is a baby bunny born at Hope Animal Hospital. Missouri House Rabbit Society did a large rescue in Bellville Illinois and this Mom had her babies here. We fostered them until they were ready for adoption. What a joy to watch them grow.

Dr. B with a Borzoi puppy named Amber. Amber had a broken leg. Now she is an AKC Champion and also lure courses.

Nap time is serious business at Hope Animal Hospital.

Dr. B’s dog Gaze napping with Monkey. Monkey is actually a stuffed gorilla that Gaze likes to carry around.

Maybe Cricket won’t notice me and I can get some time alone.

Why do I try? It never works.

Now that’s a cute bunny face!

George was sleeping in the box minding his own business when Cricket comes along and lies on top of him. Now her weight is pushing George out of the box. Of course Cricket the Prima Donna is very unconcerned.

Cricket is pregnant and here are the kittens to prove it. Actually, Cricket loved this litter of kittens from Senior Dog Project rescue and enjoyed mothering them.
