RFF (resident feline friend)

Chippy McNish

Chippy McNish has been with the hospital almost since the day it opened in 2007. Chippy got his name from a famous cat that traveled to the Antarctic with Ernest Shackleton. He likes to spend his days sleeping in cabinets. Other activities include sleeping in the sun, eating everything in sight, licking catnip, and casually letting dogs get a chance to meet a cat who does not run off while being sniffed. A word of caution though, he does not take kindly to being poked, prodded, brushed, or pet too vigorously, and he is very suspicious of Dave.
