Happy Veterinary Receptionist Week! 🥳

We have four fantastic client care specialists who keep things running smoothly, answer your questions, organise the diary and welcome all our lovely clients and patients with a smile 😃

Kelly, Nicola, Nic and Kelly B do so much around the practice that we would be lost without them and all the amazingly hard work they do every single day 👏🏼

Thank you so much, you guys! 😊

Show them some extra love this week! ❤️

🚨 Hairballs: Gross but Normal, Right? 🚨 Well... not always! ❌

Regular grooming is important, but digestive support like Laxapet helps get rid of those hairballs for good! 🙌🏼

🐾 Laxapet is a tasty, meaty treat that helps your pet’s digestive system move hairballs through safely and comfortably.

👉🏼 Stop by when we’re open and pick up a tube—no appointment needed! 📍
Give your pet the digestive support they need and say goodbye to hairballs! 😁

Getting older doesn’t mean slowing down on care! Keep your senior pet happy & comfy with these simple tips:

🦴 Support their joints – Omega-3s and joint-friendly diets help with stiffness.
🏠 Make home pet-friendly – Rugs stop slipping, and ramps help them their favourite spots.
🚶‍♂️ Exercise wisely – Keep walks short & easy, avoiding uneven ground.
🩺 Vet check-ups – Every 6 months helps catch problems early!
⚖️ Watch their weight – Less activity = fewer calories needed.
🦷 Dental health matters – Keep teeth clean to prevent pain & infections.
🛏️ Prioritize comfort – Orthopaedic beds & warmth make a big difference!

Give your golden oldie the best care in their golden years! 💛 Need advice? We’re happy to help! WhatsApp us on 07893947106 or call 028 90419374 📞 🐶🐱

✨Fun Fact Wednesday 🤓😺 Did you know? A cat’s purr can actually help heal bones! 🦴

The vibrations from a cat’s purring range between 25-150 Hz, which research suggests may aid in tissue regeneration and promote bone healing! 🤯

So next time your cat is purring on your lap, remember, they're not just being cute—they're literally sending out healing vibes! 😻

✨ Meet Dexter ✨

Dexter visited us today for a comprehensive grooming session, including a pawdicure, fur tidy-up, and a thorough brush through. After shedding quite a bit of fur, it was almost like we found an extra dog hidden in there! 😄

Comfortably sedated for the procedure, Dexter is now basking in the sun, showing off his fresh, shiny coat and feeling like a million dollars. 🌞😎

🐾 Meet Delilah! 🐾

The friendliest and most gorgeous Bull Mastiff pup around! 😍 Delilah has a heart as big as her paws, and today, she was the star of the show! 🌟

Although she’s got a bit of an eye infection, Delilah was an absolute champ during her visit. 🐶💉 Vet Niall started her on some eye drops, and we’re confident she’ll be back to her playful self in no time! 💪

Now, we’ve got a fun challenge for you... Can you guess Delilah’s age?! 🤔 Leave your guesses in the comments! 👇
