📢Canine and Feline Parvovirus (AKA Infectious Enteritis in cats) is widespread, life-threatening, and highly contagious. With recent outbreaks across the UK, could your pet be at risk?

Parvovirus spreads easily and can survive in the environment for over a year. Even indoor pets are at risk from contaminated items coming into the home.

Keep your pet safe this autumn and watch out for symptoms:

⚠️ Loss of appetite
⚠️ Lethargy
⚠️ Fever
⚠️ Vomiting
⚠️ Diarrhoea

Up-to-date vaccinations keep your pets safe.

📞If your pet needs to be vaccinated or you want to check if your pet’s vaccinations are up to date, call the clinic today.

According to a UK survey, pet obesity has risen sharply over the last decade. Nearly half of dogs and over 40% of cats are now overweight.

Extra weight doesn’t just slow pets down — it can shorten their lives and lead to serious health problems.

So, how do you keep track of your pet’s weight?

✅ Visit your vet for tailored weight checks and advice

✅ Control portions and choose healthy meals

✅ Add more movement with daily walks and play

✅ Track progress with feeding logs or activity charts

✅ Book a six-month healthy pet check to stay on top of your pet’s weight and overall wellbeing, and with Pet Health Club this is included in your plan
