Today is National Wildlife Day: a time to celebrate and protect the incredible animals that share our planet. Whether it's the foxes in our fields or the birds in our back gardens, wildlife plays a vital role in our ecosystem. 🦊🐦

As animal lovers, we know how important it is to support conservation efforts and promote coexistence with nature. 💚🍂

Let’s take a moment to appreciate the wild ones and do our part to keep them safe and thriving! 🥰

Cruciate disease refers to partial or complete rupture of the cranial cruciate ligament. The primary symptom of cruciate rupture is limping on the affected hind leg. In most patients, this limp appears suddenly, and is such that the leg is not used at all. As cruciate disease is usually a degenerative process, sometimes the ligament becomes gradually weaker, which may be seen as an intermittent limp or stiffness.

Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day is observed annually on August 28th. It's a heartfelt day dedicated to honouring and remembering beloved pets who have passed away.

For the pet owners among us, it offers a special moment to reflect on the unconditional love, joy and companionship our furry friends brought into our lives.

While the day may stir feelings of sadness, its true purpose is to celebrate the lives of these cherished animals: reminiscing the happy memories, silly habits and unique bonds that made them a part of the family.

Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day encourages us to keep their spirit alive in our hearts forever. 🌈❤

Unlike us, pets have no understanding that hot weather can be harmful. We control their environment, their access to water and their exercise, and they can’t speak up if they start feeling unwell. Heat stroke can rapidly progress and, even with veterinary treatment, is often fatal. ☀🌡

Here are some top tips on how to help your rabbit stay cool during a heatwave.

Why do cats love cardboard boxes? Because they’re cosy, enclosed and just the right size to feel safe and warm - the perfect feline hideaway. They’re also a great place to pounce, play and scratch. 🐾

So why do we keep buying expensive fancy toys and beds, expecting a different reaction...? 😹

Remember, if your cat is ever a little less playful than usual, or hiding more, these small changes can say a lot about their health. Contact us if something’s amiss so we can help keep them happy and healthy! ❤️‍🩹
