What a year! In our 2024 Report Card, we reflect on 365 days of incredible work to help make the world a safer place for pets.
Here are a few highlights from 2023:
- We heard from pet parents and veterinary clinics all over North America this year – especially in Texas, California, New York and Florida.
- Our most common call was chocolate (which reigned supreme in 2022 & 2023, too)! Unlike 2023, we have seen a decline in Marijuana calls but an increase in Psychedelic Mushrooms.
- We served a variety of species this year – 99% were cats and dogs, but we had calls about cattle, horses, goats, pigs and exotic animals (just to name a few), too!
- We hosted and shared lots of education efforts in 2024. 42 articles were written, 7 webinars were hosted, 23 tox courses were taught, and we lectured for 26 hours at veterinary conferences around the country.
- Toxin Tails were a hit in 2024. Our patient’s stories were picked up by news outlets like People Online and Veterinary Practice News. Those stories were viewed over 46,000 times!
Our staff worked 24/7 to keep your pets safe and we are thankful for your trust in us all year round to do just that. Cheers to a great year behind us and an even better year ahead!
