What does Fear Free mean for your cat? Taking your cat to the vet can be a stressful event- for both the pet and owner. By having a seperate cat and dog waiting area we reduce the contact that our feline friends have with dogs. We also use pheromone therapy in the cat waiting area and provide towels to put over baskets to increase their feelings of safety. Once in the consult room, we endeavour to make the examination as stress free as possible. Pictured is lovely Boris who saw Fear Free Practioner RVN Jo for his health check. Boris loved playing with his cat nip toy and didn't mind Jo examining him at all. However, for cats that just find the whole process of visting the vet too stressful we offer discount home visit services where the vet can visit you at home for just an extra £60. For more information on our home visit service check out www.hawthornvets.co.uk/services/home-visits #fearfreecertifiedprofessional #fearfreepets #henfield #partridgegreen #vethomevisit #hawthornvets #

🐾❤️Today we were joined by our friends at @andersonmooresvetspecialists who kindly gave all our vets, nurses and animal care assistants a refresher on pet CPR using a specialist CPR simulation model that we nicknamed Karl. It’s so important, that should a pet suffer a cardiac arrest we are ready to act. Luckily, this isn’t a skill we need to use too often but we must practice regularly. 🐾❤️

‼️In October we are offering blood pressure checks in cats for only £20- or FREE if your pet is a member of our health plan ‼️

Did you know that a recent study found that approximately 23% of cats over the age of 9 have hypertension (high blood pressure). The early symptoms can be vague, such as changes in demeanour and behaviour, lethargy and reduced appetite. Unfortunately, left untreated, high blood pressure can have very serious consequences such as blindness. ‼️In October we are offering blood pressure checks in cats for only £20, or free of charge if your pet is a member of the health plan. ‼️

With recovery times that’ll have your dog back to their usual selves in no time 🐾❤️ Speak to the team about the benefits of laparoscopic ‘keyhole’ spays today! #lapspay #hawthornvets #crazycocker #henfield

Why do we recommend laparoscopic spays for higher energy dogs? Being able to get back to their normal routine quickly is one of many reasons! But if you watch the video, Elle’s waggy tail so soon after surgery speaks for itself… #lapspay #hawthornvets #henfield #partridgegreen
