As temperatures rise, so does the risk of flystrike for our fluffy companions.
Flystrike, a potentially fatal condition, occurs when flies lay eggs on a rabbit’s fur, which then hatch into maggots and feed on their flesh.

🔍 Keep a close eye on your rabbit’s hygiene and living environment, especially during warmer months. Regularly check for any signs of soiled fur, wounds or unusual behaviour.

✅ Prevention is key: ensure your rabbit’s living space is clean and dry, and consider using flystrike prevention methods recommended by your vet.

❗️If you suspect flystrike, seek veterinary attention immediately. Early detection and treatment are crucial for the well-being of your fluffy companion.

Please contact us on 0161 764 4618 if you do have any concerns or queries regarding your rabbit’s health. ☎️

Missed your cat’s annual vaccination? 👀💉

We can get them back on track with a restart course for the price of a booster!
From 1st June - 31st July, we will be offering primary vaccination courses for the price of a booster. If your cat’s vaccinations have lapsed, or you have an adult cat who’s not had their vaccinations… contact us! ☎️

Vaccinations target serious and potentially fatal infections. By keeping up with routine health care, you can protect your cat from various different diseases.

To help maintain protection, your cat needs yearly booster vaccinations.

Contact our team on 0161 764 4618 to get booked in! ☎️

“Veterinary nursing is often a vocation that chooses us, rather than us choosing it. Often, I have found my colleagues over the last decade all say the same – they do this job because it runs deep within their core. We live and breathe our passion for animals, and often the industry is extremely difficult to work in. Long unsociable hours, varied pay, challenging medical cases, and dealing with difficult and distressing situations. Not to mention one of the highest industries for su***de. I don’t know any other job role in which you may be supporting a family through the euthanasia of their much-loved dog to calling in a couple with their newly adopted kitten. Switching from heartache to joy for the next consultation is the job's unexpected and often most difficult aspect. However, a vocation is not just a job – it makes us who we are”.
As ends, we wanted to finish with this honest quote from Rachel Davis RVN on the reality of being a veterinary nurse.

Thank you to our whole nursing team at Armac, as we’d be lost without you! 💚

Heatstroke cases in pets are all too common; share the below far and wide!

Many dogs get heatstroke when their owners take them out during high temperatures.
Together, we can prevent heatstroke by knowing when it’s safe to take your dog outside. Please remember to keep your pets hydrated and they are given plenty of shade.

Panting in hot weather can be normal, but there are fine symptoms you should never ignore if your pet has been exposed to the heat.

Stay safe and enjoy the weather! ☀️💚

❗️If you think your dog might have heatstroke, please contact us immediately on 0161 764 4618 so that we may further assist you. ☎️
