VUMC Pets of the Day: Izzy and Otto

Today’s Cat of the Day is Izzy, submitted by Lara McClintock of Occupational Health and Scott McClintock of Plant Services. “We are the proud parents/caretakers/who-knows-what-she-considers-us of  2 year old Countess Isabella, Invader of Oxford. Most of the time, we just call her Izzy. She came into our lives when she walked into the basement of Oxford House like she owned the place, decided she liked Scott, and ended up coming home with us. She has been running the show at home ever since.”

Today’s Dog of the Day is Otto, a 7 year old Cavapoo, submitted by Brad King of Health IT.  

Pets of the Day — what you need to know

The Vanderbilt University Medical Center Pets of the Day are included in regular editions of the MyVUMC newsletter, which is posted twice a week by VUMC News and Communications.

The pets are selected from the hundreds of entries sent earlier this year to the VUMC Voice Pet Photo Contest.

For those who submitted a photo to that contest, watch MyVUMC for Pets of the Day, and in addition, regular collections of pet photos are posted to the VUMC Voice site. You can see them all here: https://voice.vumc.org/tag/pets/.

If you have a pet you would like to nominate for Pet of the Day, the next Pet Photo Contest submission period is coming up later this year, and will be announced in MyVUMC.

Izzy and Otto were featured in the March 26, 2024, edition of MyVUMC.
