☀️ Making the most of the long weekend?

While you're enjoying the Bank Holiday sunshine (hopefully!), it’s the perfect time to have a quick look at the summer calendar. With the schools breaking up at the end of June, the big summer getaway is just around the corner!

To make sure your holiday starts with a smile and not a scramble, here’s your summer checklist:

🛂 For the Humans
Passport Check: Now's the time to check the expiry date! Make sure yours has enough time left for your destination.
Sun Cream: An essential for everyone, but particularly for those of us with a "Scottish" complexion! Grab your SPF now to avoid those eye-watering airport prices

🐾 For the Furry Family
If your pets are heading to the kennels or catteries while you’re away, they need to be holiday-ready too:

Kennel Cough (Don't miss the window!): This is the big one. Most boarding facilities require this to be done at least 2 weeks before they arrive. Booking it in the next few days ensures they are fully protected in time.
Flea, Tick & Worming: Check they are up to date so they stay comfortable and itch-free during their stay.
Booster Jabs: Take a quick peek at their vaccination card to ensure all their annual boosters are current.
Top Tip: Snap a photo of your pet's vaccination record on your phone today. It's a lifesaver if you get to the kennel doors and realise the paper copy is still sitting on the sideboard!

Enjoy the Bank Holiday! If you need to book a wee appointment or top up on treatments, send us a message on PetsApp or call us on 0141 771 5565 when we re-open on Tuesday! 📞

As much as we love spending time out on the water in Scotland, it actually ties into a couple of really important updates we wanted to share with you all today.

There's been a fair bit in the news about flea and tick treatments lately, and we want to help you keep your pets safe and our rivers clean:

1. Watch out for dodgy fakes online ⚠️

There's been a nasty spike in counterfeit flea treatments being sold by unscrupulous online sellers. These fake meds can make pets properly poorly. We know you want the best for your furry friends—and so do we! Please take extra care and only buy from reputable, trusted retailers, or directly from us at the surgery.

2. Protecting our lovely waterways 🌍💧

The government has just launched their "Be Spot On Aware" campaign. Traditional liquid spot-ons can easily wash off a pet’s skin when they go for a swim or even just get caught in the rain, which sadly pollutes our rivers and harms wildlife.

If you do use spot-ons, you can find the government’s handy guide on how to use them responsibly here:

👉 https://bespotonaware.campaign.gov.uk

Why we do things a bit differently... 🌿

This is exactly why our first-line choice for flea protection here at the practice is systemic tablets (the chewable ones). Because it works from the inside, there’s absolutely zero risk of it washing off into streams, lakes, or down the plughole at bath time. It keeps the protection inside your pet where it belongs, whilst keeping local nature safe.

If you ever want to check a product you've bought, or fancy chatting about switching your pet over to eco-friendly oral care, just give us a ring or pop into the clinic. We're always here to help! 🐾❤️

🐾 A Bit of Peace and Quiet for Our Feline Friends 🐾

We all know that for most cats, a trip to the vet isn't exactly their idea of a grand day out. In fact, it can be a bit of a stressful business for everyone involved! That’s why we’ve been busy making some changes to our waiting room to ensure our feline patients feel as calm and comfortable as possible from the moment they step through the door.

We are absolutely chuffed to unveil our brand-new Cat-Friendly Waiting Area. 🐱✨

Gone are the days of having to pop the carrier on the floor; there's a dedicated table so your cat can settle in at a safe height, well away from any inquisitive noses. To keep things extra peaceful, we’ve added physical privacy screens so they don't have to lock eyes with any bouncy dogs across the room. We’ve also got plenty of fresh blankets on hand to cover their carriers, giving them a cosy, dark spot to tuck themselves away while they wait for their turn.

It’s all part of our commitment to being as feline-friendly as possible, alongside our long-standing Dedicated Cat Ward, where our patients can recover in a quiet, dog-free zone.

We’re really proud to be making the vet experience that much kinder for our local kitties. Do have a look at the photos below to see the new setup, and we look forward to seeing you (and your feline friends) very soon!
