The increase in rain during autumn can cause an influx of wild mushrooms, as they thrive in damp climates. You may come across them on walks, or they may appear in your garden. It can be very difficult to determine whether a particular mushroom is safe to eat, as many can look very similar but have very different toxicity levels.

If you suspect your pet has ingested wild mushrooms, speak to a vet as soon as possible. Also, try and either take a sample or get a photo of the type of mushroom you think your pet may have ingested, as it may help the vet to identify the type of toxin and effectively treat it.

With Halloween prompting an influx of chocolate in the house, it is fairly common for pets to try and sneak a taste. Dogs in particular are likely to try and eat chocolate, but it is also toxic to cats.

The darker the chocolate and the higher concentration of cocoa (and therefore theobromine), the more severe the effects can be. Chocolate also contains caffeine, which is also unsafe for dogs and cats alike.

Even if you only suspect your pet has ingested a small amount of chocolate, the negative affects still need to be addressed.

Large amounts can be very dangerous, so either way it's best to speak to your vet for further instruction. If possible, have the packet available so the vet can calculate how much theobromine your pet has ingested.

November is Pet Cancer Awareness Month, a time to shine a light on one of the leading health concerns affecting our beloved pets. With one in four dogs and one in five cats developing cancer during their lifetime, early detection is key. Keep an eye out for signs such as unexplained lumps, weight loss, changes in appetite, or unusual behaviour. If you notice anything concerning, don’t wait: book a check-up with your vet. A timely visit could make all the difference in ensuring your pet gets the care they need.

Did you know? Antifreeze is toxic to cats. The smell and taste of antifreeze is very appealing to our feline friends, and they are likely to lap it up if they come across a spillage. So, as the weather starts to chill off, please be careful when topping up your cars with antifreeze and clear up any spillages made.

For cat owners, check out the symptoms of antifreeze poisoning to be aware of below.

People dressed in costumes and unexpected knocks at the door can be confusing and scary for many dogs. Here are our Halloween top tips:

🎃 Be careful when opening the door so your dog doesn’t accidentally escape
👻 If your dog is really worried, consider a sign saying ‘nervous dog, please do not knock’. You could still leave treats out for children to help themselves
🍬 Keep human sweets and chocolate safely out of your dog’s reach
🧛 Keep dressing up for humans only. Costumes can feel restrictive and prevent your pet from communicating their discomfort

Pet insurance or a preventative healthcare plan?

Pet insurance can cover unexpected accidents or illnesses which may come your pets way.

Preventative healthcare schemes, like our Healthy Pet Club, focus on keeping your pet healthy and protected on an everyday basis. For example, covering their vaccinations, parasite control and health checks.
