🌊🐾 On World Oceans Day we'd like to remind you that beaches are beautiful, but they come with hidden risks for your dog!
Tides can change quickly, but there are other hazards to watch out for too:

🌊 Never let your dog drink seawater as it can cause salt poisoning
🚩 Check for blue-green algae warnings before letting your dog near the water
⚠️ Be aware of rip currents and keep dogs away from areas with strong surf

A little awareness helps keep every beach adventure safe and stress-free 🐶💛

🐱💛 It's Hug Your Cat Day and today’s the perfect excuse to give your cat a cuddle…
(…if they allow it 😅)

From head bumps to sitting on your laptop at the worst possible moment, our cats have a funny way of showing love and we wouldn’t have it any other way.

Give them an extra hug today (on their terms, of course).

- Lethargy or reluctance to move
- Loss of appetite or sudden weight loss
- Unusual lumps or changes in behaviour

A quick summer health check with our team can give you real peace of mind before the holiday season kicks in 💛

🔥🐶 National BBQ Week is here!
BBQs are great fun, but some tasty treats can be dangerous for our pets.

⚠️ Watch out for:
• Cooked bones (can splinter and cause injury)
• Fatty scraps (may lead to tummy upset or pancreatitis)
• Onions, garlic, and certain marinades (toxic to pets)

Keep plates out of reach and remind guests not to share food with your furry friends. A little caution can prevent an emergency visit!
