Veterinary marketing ideas and social media graphics for November

1. Adopt a Senior Pet Month: Strengthen your community ties in November by partnering with local animal shelters and offering free or discounted services to new parents of senior pets. Be sure to include a direct booking link in your social media caption so clients can book online without having to call!

2. Pet Diabetes Month: Raise awareness about diabetes in pets by sharing risk signs to watch for, such as excessive thirst, urination, weight loss, lethargy, and poor skin condition. Remind your community how important it is to maintain preventative care for their pets by encouraging them to book a wellness exam with you online, and by regularly sending automatic veterinary reminders when pets are due for routine care.

3. National Pet Cancer Awareness Month: Whether or not you offer oncology services, you can support the cause by sharing survivor stories, health tips, and the key signs of cancer to look out for as pets become older. This is also a great time to highlight the importance of early detection in pets, which you can do by encouraging pet parents to continue booking routine visits online and ensuring their pets’ health needs are met.

4. National Senior Pet Month: November is also dedicated to supporting the senior pets in our lives, so it’s your chance to show your community how much you value your older patients’ well-being. Focus on preventive care, getting those semi-annual check-ups, and making some lifestyle tweaks to keep them as healthy as possible. Remind your community they can easily book an appointment online if their pet is due or past due for routine check-ups and vaccines.

5. National Cook for Your Pets Day: Let’s get cooking on the first day of November! Download and share our pet recipe cards with your clients, or use them to craft up some treats for your patients in the clinic. Explain the importance of pets having consistent meal times, and how pet parents need to look out for any signs of an allergic reaction, which may indicate a need to switch their pets’ food.

6. International Pet Groomer Appreciation Day: November 1st is also for our hard-working pet groomers! Tell your community how much your team values pet groomers in their effort to keep pets happy, healthy, and well-cared for. Show your appreciation for those who keep pets looking and feeling great by sharing grooming tips, recommending products, and celebrating the importance of professional grooming. If your practice offers or partners with grooming services, consider supporting groomers with veterinary-specific grooming software built to make their lives easier.

7. Animal Shelter Appreciation Week: November 2nd to the 8th honors pets who have yet to find their forever homes. Boost your marketing in November by teaming up with local animal shelters and offering your clients online booking discounts when they bring their new pets in for initial wellness exams.

8. National Canine Lymphoma Awareness Day: Even if you don’t offer oncology services, you can show support this November 7th by sharing survivor stories, health tips, and the key signs of Lymphoma to look out for in pets. Emphasize the importance of early detection by encouraging clients to keep their pets’ care up to date, which they can easily do by booking appointments online.

9. Veterans Day: Take time this November 11th to honor all those who have served in the U.S. Armed Forces. Show your appreciation for their sacrifice and dedication by sharing stories on your custom veterinary website and social media, highlighting clients who are veterans (with permission), and giving thanks.

10. World Kindness Day: November 13th encourages kindness. Express your gratitude for the clients who trust their pets’ healthcare with your team, and share positive experiences from the pet parents you’ve served—whether it’s from an online veterinary review or an in-person testimonial.

11. Practice Manager Appreciation Week: The third week of November (the 16th to 22nd this year) is dedicated to the hard work of practice managers! Show your social media followers how much you appreciate their commitment to pet healthcare with photos of your team celebrating in the clinic. Ask your followers to share their favorite memories or stories of your practice manager(s), and don’t forget to use our free veterinary practice manager appreciation cards to show some extra love!

12. Thanksgiving Day: Give thanks to your team, clients, and patients this November 17th! Get your followers involved by asking what they’re most thankful for, and then share their answers to build a stronger community.
