Ask the Vet
I have 2 wonderful cats at home, but it seems as though they get very bored during the day while I’m away at work. Can you recommend some toys that they could play with by themselves?
This is a great question and actually something I do discuss with owners in the exam room on a regular basis. Play time is an important aspect of a cat’s well being, much like good nutrition and regular health check-ups. Play time can reduce boredom, provide exercise and reduce unwanted bad behaviors. I will discuss what to look for and how you might utilize toys you may already have.

Katie is described by her fellow employees as positive, focused, determined, reliable and easy going. She is always willing to learn something new and help out whenever needed. Katie is most knowledgeable about horses, dogs, fish and reptiles . When she is not working Katie enjoys spending time with her boxers, training horses or running. Thank you Katie for all of your hard work and dedication.
Mounds Success Story
Our success story is about Friday, our 65lb 11 month old Goldendoodle. Friday had a sensitive stomach when we brought him home. At 12 weeks of age, he suffered from diarrhea and a vomiting. Over the next couple of months, we wormed him and tried several foods but his problems persisted. We were told that a lamb and rice food was usually better for dogs with sensitive tummies so, we went in search of just such a food. We found the Mounds Dog Power Lamb and Rice and decided to give it a try.
Warm Fuzzy Salute
The Dane County Sheriff’s Office has used canines since 1901. The current K-9 program has been in place since 1982, making it the longest serving K-9 Unit in Dane County. Many dedicated deputies and canines have served on the Unit. The K-9 Unit currently has five teams: Each team consists of a handler (deputy) and their canine partner. There are three patrol teams, one explosives detection team, and one search/rescue team.
