Dogs and cats are notorious for not getting along, but sometimes, they actually form a perfect duo and become great partners in life.

We understand how hard it can be for a pet to be diagnosed with a life-limiting condition. If this happens, palliative care can be a great option.

Palliative care focuses on easing pain, preserving dignity, and treasuring good days when a cure is not a possibility.

We treat each pet individually and tailor pain relief, appetite boosters, and anti-nausea medicines, and may show you how to give fluids or tablets at home.

Keeping a daily “good moments” diary can be helpful to spot subtle changes and assess your pet’s quality of life, and it can also be very useful when making difficult decisions.

Remember to take breaks, accept help, and that choosing comfort is an act of love. We are here to walk this path with you, with regular check-ins to provide medical guidance and answer any questions you might have. ❤️

Cat whiskers are rich in nerves and are connected to muscles, letting felines measure gaps without their bodies touching the surroundings. Have you ever seen your cat pause and assess a doorway or a narrow space before gliding through? 🐱

Lyme Disease Awareness Month is a great reminder of how important tick prevention is for our pets. 🐶

Lyme disease is a tick-borne illness that can affect dogs and that can cause serious health problems if left untreated. As the weather gets warmer and we spend more time outdoors, it’s a good time to stay extra vigilant after walks in grassy, wooded or rural areas.

Checking your pet regularly for ticks and keeping up to date with parasite prevention can make a big difference in helping to protect them.

If you ever find a tick on your pet or notice anything unusual, our team is here to help.

Bees may be tiny, but their impact is enormous. 🐝

This World Bee Day, we’re celebrating these amazing pollinators and raising awareness of the challenges they face.

Without bees and other pollinators, many fruits, nuts, seeds, and flowering plants would struggle. Pollination is crucial for food production, biodiversity, and the health of ecosystems.

Sadly, bees are under threat from habitat loss, pesticides, disease, and climate pressures. That is why even simple actions matter, like choosing pollinator-friendly plants, avoiding pesticides, and creating small safe spaces for bees in gardens and outdoor areas.

Did you know the adder (Vipera berus berus) is the only venomous snake native to the UK? 🤔

Adders are a protected species and are usually not aggressive, only biting when they feel threatened. They are most commonly found in areas such as dry, sandy heaths, sand dunes, rocky hillsides, moorlands and woodland edges, although they can appear elsewhere, too.

Pets are often bitten on the leg, head or neck, so it is important to stay alert when out walking, especially in areas where adders may live.

If you think your pet may have been bitten, even if you did not see the snake, get in touch with us immediately.

Behind every wagging tail and content purr there is a veterinary team giving their all. Long hours, complex cases and the constant wish to do the best for each patient can take a heavy toll. Burnout is real and many vet professionals carry it quietly. 💙

Kindness goes a long way. A simple thank you during your visit can lift our team’s spirits more than you realise.
