My Pets Vets My Pets Vets is part of Linnaeus Veterinary Ltd (A Mars Company). We offer 24 hour emergency care, and are the only vets in the Leigh area to do so.

The My Pets Vets Story:

We decided to open our own practice in order to provide the high standards and quality of care we feel every animal and their owner deserves. The welfare of our patients is always of highest priority, and we make every effort to ensure that the animals entrusted to our care are treated as we would treat our own pets. To enable us to do this we transformed an old pub into into a modern, flexible veterinary practice, and opened our doors on 19th September 2011. We always have staff on standby, even if it’s out of hours. We know emergencies don’t wait for a convenient time, and want our clients to know they can rely on us whatever the time of day. We knew having a new modern practice was only the first step, and set out to build the best nursing and support team possible. We now have a team who show the most friendly and compassionate service possible, while delivering the highest standards of medical care. We feel preventative healthcare is very important, not only for your pets'; but also for your family and your home. We endeavour to advise you of the best practices available to keep your pets' healthy and happy, and offer free clinics for a wide range of issues.

How can you prepare your dog for firework season? 🎇🐾

🐕‍🦺 Walk them earlier in the day, before the fireworks are likely to start.

🥎 Prepare enrichment activities to help keep them occupied.

🥰 Create a quiet, cosy and secure space where your dog can feel safe and relaxed.

🔖 Make sure their microchip and ID collar contact details are up-to-date, so they can be safely reunited with you if they escape and go missing.

💊 Speak to your vet - Ask about anxiety support and ensure any prescribed medication is given at the correct time.

🎆 Let’s make firework season a little less scary for our pups with extra love, comfort and preparation!

If your dog struggles with fireworks, it’s best to plan ahead 🐾

🐾🎆 Keeping your cat safe during firework season 🎆🐾

Fireworks can be frightening for cats, with loud bangs and sudden flashes of light causing stress and anxiety. Here are some top tips to help your feline friend feel safe and stay calm during fireworks season ❤️

🏡 Keep them indoors - Keeping your cat inside at night helps prevent them from becoming frightened. Remember to lock cat flaps to stop them from going outside.

🛏️ Create a safe space - A cosy hiding spot with food, water and a litter tray nearby.

🎇 Block out the noise - Close windows, curtains, turn on the lights and play calming music.

🏷️ Check their microchip and ID tag - Make sure your pet is microchipped and your contact details are up-to-date, so they can be safely reunited with you if they escape and go missing.

🐈‍⬛ Calming aids - Pheromone plug-ins or sprays, such as Feliway, can have a calming effect on anxious cats.

💊 Speak to your vet - Ask about anxiety support and ensure any prescribed medication is given at the correct time.

🐾 A little preparation can make a big difference to your cat’s comfort and safety this firework season 🎇

Meet Ion… one of our vets! 🐾

Ion previously worked with us as a lead vet before leaving for greener pastures… only to return after realising there’s no place quite like My Pets Vets! Needless to say, the team are very happy to have him back. 💙

Ion is a very skilled surgeon with a real passion for surgery, so much so that he has decided to pursue this further by studying towards a postgraduate certificate in surgery. When he’s not busy in theatre, you’ll quite often find Ion singing made-up, slightly strange tunes to our patients to help distract them during procedures! 🎶😂

He also has a real passion for teaching and particularly enjoys helping and teaching our students when they visit us on placement. With his skills, dedication and work ethic, there’s no doubt that having Ion back has made our team even stronger! 💪🐾

We’d say modesty is probably one of his strongest qualities too… but Ion actually wrote this last bit himself! 😉😂
