August 8 is International Cat Day, a time to recognize the unique, quirky, and lovable nature of cats everywhere. Whether they’re sunbathing on a windowsill, batting toys under the couch, or demanding dinner 10 minutes early, cats hold a special place in our hearts—and deserve the best care we can give them.

At Animal Works , we don’t just love cats—we’re here when they need surgical care to stay happy and healthy.

A Day to Celebrate—And Pay Attention to Your Cat’s Health

Cats are known for hiding discomfort, which can make it hard to catch problems early. International Cat Day is a great reminder to check in on your feline’s health:

  • Have you noticed changes in appetite, weight, or energy?

  • Are there any new lumps, bumps, or signs of discomfort?

  • Is your cat hiding more or hesitating to jump or climb?

These may be subtle signs that something’s not quite right.

When Surgery Is the Right Step

While we don’t offer routine wellness care, we offer surgical procedures for cats, including:

  • Mass removals

  • Orthopedic surgery

  • Soft tissue surgery

  • Dental cleaning and extractions 

  • Emergency surgical care (by referral)

If your primary care veterinarian recommends a procedure, we’re here to provide affordable surgical support in a stress-reducing, feline-friendly environment.

How to Make International Cat Day Special

Even if your cat isn’t big on parties, here are a few simple ways to celebrate them:

  • Try a new interactive toy or treat puzzle

  • Offer a safe elevated perch or window seat

  • Book a wellness visit with your general vet if it’s been a while

  • Snap a pic and share it with friends—or just admire their floofy magnificence

We’re Here for Your Cat’s Surgical Needs

If your cat has been diagnosed with a condition requiring surgery, your general vet may refer you to a clinic like ours. We’re committed to providing gentle, safe and comfortable care—because we know that cats are more than just pets. They’re family.

đŸŸ Happy International Cat Day from the team at Animal Works!
