Victor
The BVC Clinic Cat 🐾
Bradford Veterinary Clinic adopted Victor from Central Vermont Humane Society in October 2018 after he came in for oral surgery. He is one of the sweetest cats you could ever meet, and won over the entire team from the moment he put all four paws inside of the building. He has made the clinic his home and can often be found laying on the top of the reception desk greeting everyone that comes in.
Victor enjoys spending his time chatting with our loyal clients, stealing cat treats from a not so secret stash, and supervising team lunches. Additionally, Victor is known for his ability to not-so-subtly request pats on his head and bottom.
