Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant. (a) Dismissal of Previous Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm On October 16, 2025, Inspire Veterinary Partners, Inc. (the "Company") dismissed Kreit & Chiu CPA LLP ("K&C") as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm. During the Company's two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the subsequent interim period through October 16, 2025, there were no "disagreements" (as defined in paragraph (a)(1)(iv) of Item 304 of Regulation S-K and the related instructions thereto) between the Company and K&C on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of K&C, would have caused K&C to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its reports on the Company's financial statements. During this same period, K&C advised the Company that there were material weaknesses in the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

The decision to replace K&C was approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company. The Company provided K&C with a copy of this Current Report on Form 8-K prior to its filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and requested that K&C furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether it agrees with the above statements and, if it does not agree, the respects in which it does not agree. A copy of K&C's letter, dated October 21, 2025, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. (b) Engagement of New Inde
