Post a photo of your pet doing what they love most. ❤️

Sleeping in a ridiculous position, exploring outside, chasing a ball, stealing your seat… we want to see them!

Caring for a senior pet is about helping those golden years feel comfortable and enjoyable. 💙

Simple changes can make a big difference, from providing softer bedding and non-slip surfaces, to adjusting exercise, keeping nails trimmed and making food, water and litter trays easier to reach.

Every senior pet is different, and their needs change as the years go by.

For Senior Pet Month, take a fresh look at your pet’s daily routine. Is there one small change that could make life a little easier for them?

The shoes go on; the lead comes out… and suddenly they’re at the door before you’ve even called them. 😅🐕

Fireworks tonight? Remember that your pet may experience the evening very differently from you.

Keep them safely indoors, close curtains and windows, and give them access to somewhere they feel safe. Background music or the television may help reduce the impact of the noise outside.

If your pet chooses to hide, let them. If they come to you for reassurance, it’s absolutely fine to comfort them too. 💙

And be extra careful when opening doors, as frightened pets can try to escape unexpectedly.

How does your pet deal with fireworks? Tell us in the comments.

It’s Halloween, the season where there are plenty of sweets and chocolate around the house, but some of our favourite treats can be dangerous for our pets.

Keep these safely out of reach:

🍫 Chocolate

🍬 Sweets containing xylitol

🍇 Grapes and raisins

🗑️ Sweet wrappers and packaging, which can cause problems if swallowed

Keep Halloween treats for humans and give your pet something safe and suitable instead.

Questions are always welcome. 🩺

No question about your pet is ever "too silly". Whether it's about diet, behaviour, a strange habit, or a worrying symptom, our team would much rather you ask.

Understanding your pet's health helps us all give them the best care possible.

Dinner. A walk. A leaf. Literally you, breathing.

Imagine finding that much joy in the little things. Honestly? They might be onto something. 🥰
