Today’s Cat of the Day is Lilbit, submitted by Kami Davies of the Vanderbilt Eye Institute. “Twelve-year-old Lilbit isn’t quite so little but is definitely ruler of the house. The meows for food and constant conversations (They can talk, right?) are the highlight of each and every day.”

Today’s Dog of the Day is Millie, submitted by S. Bobo Tanner of Rheumatology. “This is Millie on the Potomac River in Washington, D.C.”
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.
Lilbit and Millie were featured in the June 10, 2025, edition of MyVUMC News.
