We've heard it all before. But we won't budge, the only costumes dogs should wear for Halloween are their birthday suit. 🎃

Dogs may not enjoy costumes because they can feel restrictive, uncomfortable or unfamiliar.

Read our advice on why pet costumes are never a good idea. 👉 https://bit.ly/4eWi5Ji

😻 This Halloween ‘Caturday’ is brought to you by wonderful ‘Wednesday’ who saw Vet Andrew for her second kitten vaccination this week 🐈‍⬛ 💉
🎃 We recommend keeping your cats in from early evening on Halloween as they may be spooked by the trick & treaters & the inevitable fireworks 🎆

Happy ‘Caturday’ from beautiful ‘Astrid’ 😻
This super chilled kitty was very relaxed when she visited RVN Carina earlier this week for her Pet Health club 6 month check!
Did you know that if you need any support with aspects of your pets home care, eg introducing tooth brushing or making dietary modifications to manage their weight, you can upgrade their 6 month check to a 30 minute HealthCheck360 for a small fee?

Gorgeous 18 month old Labrador ‘Juno’ was admitted last week for a laparoscopic spay with Vet Amelia. 😍
A laparoscopic bitch spay is a minimally invasive keyhole surgery that removes the ovaries only through three tiny cuts instead of one large open incision. A tiny camera (laparoscope) and special long instruments go inside the abdomen & the operating vet can see the organs clearly on a screen.
Key-hold surgery is reported to be less painful than traditional surgery with a lower risk of post-operative wound breakdown or infection & faster recovery & return to normal activity levels. Laparoscopic surgery is extremely useful for working dogs, large dogs and energetic dogs who are difficult to keep rested! ❤️‍🩹
Laparoscopic spaying is more expensive that a traditional surgery but pets on the Pet Health Club still benefit from the usual neutering discounts. For more information please speak to your vet

Best ferret friends, 6 month old ‘Slinky’ & 5 month old ‘Freya’ were admitted The Chapel Veterinary Surgery yesterday for surgery with Vet Tori & RVN Alice 😍

The breeding period for ferrets is between March and September & this long breeding season can cause serious problems for jills (female ferrets) who do not have the opportunity to mate as their high oestrogen levels can lead to a life threatening anaemia, Surgical neutering removes the risk of both this & of any cancers or infections of the reproductive organs.
There is now also the option of a slow release hormone implant as an alternative to surgery💉
We wish super sweet Slinky & Freya a speedy recovery ❤️‍🩹
