Today’s Dog of the Day is Tennyson, submitted by Grace Hastings of the Vanderbilt Bill Wilkerson Center. “He is a beagle mix who was adopted as a puppy from Nashville Humane Association.”
Today’s Cats of the Day are Fiona and Penelope, submitted by Ginny Fowler of the Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center. “Fiona and Penelope are sisters from litters about 6 months apart. They are both brown tabbies and are absolutely inseparable!”
Pets of the Day — what you need to know
The Vanderbilt Health Pets of the Day are included in regular editions of the MyVUMC News newsletter, which is posted twice a week by Vanderbilt Health News and Communications.
The pets are selected from the hundreds of entries sent to the 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 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.
Tennyson, Fiona and Penelope were featured in the March 12, 2026, edition of MyVUMC News.
