It\u2019s hard to believe it\u2019s time to start planning for October, but now is the time to get your veterinary social calendar sorted for the next month. Planning ahead enables you to create quality content pieces<\/a> that encourage engagement. They might even help you reach a few new followers on the way. Here are some spooky and savvy veterinary social post ideas for your October calendar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The Month of Adopt, Don\u2019t Shop<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

October is not only Adopt a Dog Month and Adopt a Shelter Dog Month, but it\u2019s also Black Cat Awareness Month, and National Pet Wellness Month. Why not make everything easy on yourself by combining these topics and creating a few different pieces of content from them? Consider doing a highlight on the dogs (and black cats) at your local shelter to help them get exposure that could get them adopted. Give some tips on wellness care for first-time pet owners, or have a special for pet owners who just adopted their furry friend from the local shelter. Not only will these topics help you fill your social media planning calendar and expand your local reach<\/a>, but they\u2019ll also do really good things for local pets in need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These Paws Were Made for Walking<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The first full week of October is National Walk Your Dog Week, and it provides the perfect opportunity to ask your followers to engage with your page by sharing photos of their walking buddies. Highlighting your followers on your page makes them feel connected to you. Building these relationships is an important element of social media marketing. It gives you a new avenue to humanize your veterinary hospital, and gives local pet owners more motivation to visit you when their pets need some medical attention. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Dog and Cat Days of October<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
