🐾 A little update from the team! 🐾

We have lots of exciting things happening at the practice!

💻 Our online booking system has been updated! We've made it even easier and more convenient to book your pet's appointments online. Why not give it a try next time you need to book?

🇦🇺 Our lovely Australian locum vets are back! We're delighted to welcome them back to the team for the next 5 weeks. This means we have some additional appointment availability, giving you more opportunities to get your pets seen.

🩺 Don't leave those check-ups until December! December is always an extra busy time at the practice, so if your pet is due a routine health check, vaccination, weight check or medication review, now is a great time to get booked in.

Whether it's a routine check-up or something you've been meaning to get checked, we'd love to see you!

🐾 Maisie’s routine check-up! 🩺❤️

Our lovely Maisie popped in for her routine blood tests to make sure her long-term medication is continuing to keep her feeling her best. 🐶💉

Regular blood monitoring is an important part of caring for pets on long-term medication. It helps us check that treatment remains safe and effective, and spot any changes early.

Of course, Maisie deserved a little treat for being such a good girl! ⭐ Her lovely human rewarded her bravery with a brand-new toy to take home. 🧸❤️ We think that’s a pretty good reward for a trip to the vets!

🐾 Does your pet take long-term medication?

Please make sure you keep up to date with their recommended blood tests and check-ups. Even if your pet seems perfectly happy and healthy, routine monitoring can help us pick up changes before they become a problem.

If your pet is due their monitoring bloods, give our team a call to get them booked in. We’re always happy to help keep your furry family members feeling their best! ❤️

Well done, Maisie – we hope you enjoy your new toy! 🐾🥰

🐾 It’s Cat Day! 🐾

Yesterday we had these four gorgeous cats join us at our Burnley practice for their neutering. 😻

💙 Meet the boys — Toby & Timmy
🩷 And the girls — Millie & Lily

They were all absolute stars! ⭐🐱

Neutering your cat is one of the most important things you can do to help prevent unwanted litters, protect your cat’s health and reduce the number of strays.

Four beautiful cats, one very important day. ❤️🐾

Meet Poppy! Our amazing senior weight loss star! 🤍
Poppy began her weight loss journey in February 2024 and has since lost a whopping 7.7kg. Poppy is feeling much better after developing a condition that affects her mobility. The incredible achievement wouldn't have been possible without the dedication of Poppy's wonderful family, who have worked hard to maintain consistent feeding amounts and by providing exercise such as hydrotherapy as a low impact way to support mobility, build strength and keep our senior pets moving comfortably. Poppy's journey is a wonderful reminder that, with patience, consistency and the right support, weight management can make a real difference to our pets quality of life. Well done to Poppy and her family - We are very proud of you!
