Today’s Cat of the Day is Peanut Butter, submitted by Ben Butler of the Clinical Trials Office. “She jumped our fence one day and has been part of our family ever since.”
Today’s Dog of the Day is Ginger, submitted by Theresa Tucker of the Vanderbilt Heart and Vascular Institute Device Clinic. “As a puppy she was left abandoned with three other puppies. She came home for the ‘weekend.’ She’s 7 now and the sweetest girl.“
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 News newsletter, which is posted twice a week by VUMC News and Communications.
The pets are selected from the hundreds of entries sent to the VUMC Voice Pet Photo Contest.
For those who submitted a photo to that contest, watch MyVUMC News 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://news.vumc.org/section/voice/pets-vumc/.
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 News.
Peanut Butter and Ginger were featured in the Jan. 9, 2025, edition of MyVUMC News.
