Today’s first Dog and Cat Pair of the Day are Annabelle and Tink, submitted by Heather Green of Monroe Carell Float Pool Administration. “Tink loves to get in Annabelle’s bed to snuggle, even though she has own bed.”
Today’s second Dog and Cat Pair of the Day are Clover and Big Boy, submitted by Kandi Carter of the Vanderbilt Eye Institute. “Both of these fellows are rescues. We got Clover as a puppy. Big Boy found us, but did not trust people. Clover won him over and then we were able to gain his trust.”
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.
Annabelle, Tink, Clover and Big Boy were featured in the Dec. 18, 2025, edition of MyVUMC News.
