Educational Mondays: Charity Medicine *neutering*
As many will know, we work closely with local animal charities to provide health care to the animals they work tirelessley to help.
Every Thursday, Cat Rescue bring any cats that need veterinary treatment (non-urgently of course, any urgent cases are seen as required!). They often bring up to 30 cats in a morning, and we will health check them and provide any treatment needed.
Last week alone this included - 5 cat spays, 4 cat castrations, a umbilical hernia repair, three dentals with broken teeth extracted, x-raying and bandging a broken toe, blood tests for an unwell elderly cat, a major hip surgery for an old painful injury in a lovely stray, and 10 kittens to start their vaccinations.
These cats are either found as strays, or handed in by owners for many reasons usually out of their control.
Our rescue centres are busrting at the seams, but they will always help where they can. It is everyones responsibility as animal lovers to ensure that our pets are neutered (or, at least, not able to roam and breed if kept entire). FAR too many cats and dogs are waiting for loving homes, neutering prevents many more being brought into the world.
Many charities offer financial support to owners struggling with the cost of neutering, so please do reach out if you need help.
