VUMC Pets of the Day: Cooper and Clarice

Today’s Dog of the Day is Cooper, submitted by Toni Kolokythas of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. “Cooper is a 13 year old Yorkie, spoiled and pampered, always picture-ready.”

Today’s Cat of the Day is Clarice, submitted by Caitlyn Nicholson of Green Hills Primary Care/ Rheumatology. “Clarice is 3 years old. She loves cuddles and her lobster costume.”

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.

Cooper and Clarice were featured in the Feb. 4, 2025, edition of MyVUMC News.
