The HVC Team
Dr. Watson Clinic Cat. Dr. Watson arrived at the clinic in May of 2016. He came in as an injured stray and somehow became the clinic cat. His hobbies include: hunting flies, faking injuries for attention, stealing highlighters, opening bags of dog food, jumping over the reception desk like a ninja, taking naps, annoying the staff dogs, and really just being an overall nuisance. Dr.Watson has been a great addition to the staff. |
