Maverick arrived for his second vaccination in comfort tonight 🥰 He was an absolute joy for our Registered Veterinary Nurse, and he loved being fussed over.

Today we weren't sure if Vin was a cat or a parrot!
Vin came in today to be spayed (the term for neutering a female). She had a good anaesthetic & procedure, with a smooth recovery, we couldn't ask for a better day for her 😁

As you know, Michael Hamblin retired at the start of October. Thank you so much to everyone who signed his card and wished him well. Personally, I have worked with Michael for 10 years here at Chessington Veterinary Surgery, the practice he started and saw rise to a well respected part of the local community. It was extremely sad to see him leave, but he deserves a happy retirement after his years of dedication to the veterinary world.
Michael has asked for me to share this message -

Gorgeous girl Mabel came along to see our Registered Veterinary Nurse today for a post operative check following her spay earlier this week.
She has been recovering really well, with a wonderful tiny surgical wound that is healing super fast.
Not being able to interfere with a surgical wound is very important, and when you present wearing a donut anti-lick collar, we're obviously going to be impressed and need to share a photo with everyone 😁 What do you think?!

Last Sunday (almost all of) our fantastic team at Chessington Vets got to enjoy a wild adventure at Chessington World Of Adventures! 🐅🦏🦒
We are so thankful to our Head Veterinary Nurse and the Zoo Team for organising this treat for us 🙏
It was interesting to learn how the animals receive veterinary treatment too, when needed.
Feeding a tiger, brushing a rhino and standing tall with the giraffes - something we'll never forget 😁

I wonder if your small cat is as well trained as this beautiful tiger? 😄

How adorable is little kitten Roxy?!
Roxy came in last week for her second vaccination, therefore completing her primary vaccination course and now only requiring annual boosters 💪
Our vets keep an eye on which vaccinations are due each year, as some components are repeated annually, whereas some are only every 3 years.

Vet Kenza wanted a little cuddle with Roxy before she went home 🤗

Remi came to visit us last week. She loved exploring her cosy bed, and was very affectionate towards our team ❤️

This absolutely beautiful boy is Bertie ❤
Bertie's lovely owners had felt some lumps on his side and brought him in for them to be checked
Our fantastic vet Michael performed a Fine needle Aspirate or FNA of the lumps
This is a procedure where a small needle is put into the lump, a syringe is used to suck out (aspirate) cells from the lump 💉
These are then transferred to a microscope slide for the cells to be examined to determine what kind of lump it is
It looks very much from the samples taken today that these are harmless fatty lumps or "lipomas"
If you notice your pet has any lumps or bumps, please do get them checked out!

Hot Weather Alert for Pet Owners! 🐾
As temperatures rise, it's important to remember that our dogs feel the heat even more than we do. What might seem like a pleasant summer walk can quickly turn dangerous—or even deadly—for your furry friend.
🔥 Why It’s Risky:
Pavement burns: If the ground is too hot for your hand, it's too hot for their paws. Asphalt can reach 130°F (54°C) or more on a 90°F (32°C) day.
Heatstroke: Dogs can't sweat like we do. They cool down by panting, which isn't enough in extreme heat. Heatstroke can come on fast and can be fatal.
Dehydration: Long walks in the sun increase the risk of dehydration, especially for flat-faced breeds like pugs and bulldogs.
🚫 Avoid walking your dog during the hottest parts of the day (typically 10 AM – 6 PM). Opt for early morning or late evening walks when the pavement and air are cooler.
✅ Tips to Keep Your Dog Safe:
Walk on grass when possible
Always bring water
Keep walks short
Never leave your dog in a parked car, even for a minute
Watch for signs of heat stress: heavy panting, drooling, weakness, confusion, or vomiting
Your dog relies on you to keep them safe—let’s make sure summer is fun, not fatal. 🐶💛

🌈 Found Deceased Cat – Chessington Area 🌈

Late last night a kind member of the public brought a cat in to us that was sadly found deceased in the Chessington area.

He is an entire male tabby and unfortunately does not have a microchip, which makes locating his owners more difficult.

We are now trying to find his family to offer them some closure during this difficult time.

If you think this could be your cat, or know someone who is missing a male tabby in the area, please get in touch with us:
📞 0208 974 1197
📧 [email protected]

Please share this post to help us reach his owners. 🐾
