Today’s Dog of the Day is Lucy, submitted by Vicki Wahl of Health IT. “Lucy is a rescued lab chow mix who loves walks and chicken. And, based on this photo, she knows where the latter is kept.”
Today’s Cat of the Day is Simba, submitted by Anna Gentle of Acute Rehabilitation. “Simba, the 6-year-old lynx point Siamese, is full of personality and sass. His favorite activities include sleeping in a sunny window and random sneak attacks from his tunnels!”
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.
Lucy and Simba were featured in the Dec. 5, 2024, edition of MyVUMC News.
