This month we are raising money for a charity which important to us all.. The Bristol Children’s Hospital Charity 💙

Last year Alice (one of our Nurses very brave daughter) was taken to intensive care after her health declined rapidly. Alice was in intensive care for a month, some of this time she was barely conscious and was placed on a ventilator. It was at Bristol Children’s Hospital that they diagnosed her with Guillian-Barre Syndrome, where they were able to give the best possible treatment.

We would like to give something back to the hospital by raising as much as we can at our family fun day, please visit the link if you would like to donate ..

Bailey came in to see one of our nurses Cecilie for a ‘desense’ appointment.

Desensitisation is a technique used to change an animal’s response or reaction to someone or something of which it is afraid.

This is the process of reducing a response by presenting the trigger in its least intense form and gradually building up the intensity over time. It can help build their confidence with us before their next visit with the Vet.

The ultimate end goal of desensitisation is to reach a point whereby the dog is no longer sensitive to the trigger at all.

Bailey’s owner said that Bailey loves selfies.. so ofcourse Cecilie couldn’t resist 🥰

Lulu 🐱

Lulu was seen this month for inappetence and vomiting. She was admitted and stayed with us on fluids, anti-sickness and imaging as she also vomited up part of a nerf gun pellet at home!

There were concerns that she had a foreign body so we went ahead with surgery. There was a foreign material found in her ileum (final part of intestine), which looked like part of a nerf gun pellet. We performed an enterotomy; this is surgical incision into the intestine to remove an obstruction.

Lulu stayed in hospital for a few days after surgery for pain relief and ongoing monitoring for any surgical complications. She has now been discharged and is recovering well at home 🐱❤️

Today is National Take Your Cat to the Vet Day 🐈

This is the perfect opportunity to schedule your pets checkup. Ongoing regular check-ups are important for your cat and can help detect signs of early illness or disease. Catching these signs early is the best way to help your cat live a long, healthy life.

We now offer cat only appointment times at our Tetbury branch every Wednesday morning to help reduce stress in our feline patients. We are hoping to be able to provide cat only appointments across all our branches and hospital in the future 😻

Please see below for tips on how to make your cats visit to the vet as stress-free as possible⬇️

May undewent surgery to remove the diseased digit and after lots of dedication and care from her owner, she is recovering well as the video shows. Well done May!

Henry 🐶

Henry had been seen earlier this week for ongoing retching and struggling to swallow. We carried out a general anaesthetic and bronchoscope to see if there were any signs of foreign material.

We scoped his trachea and couldn’t see anything and then placed the scope up his nose to examine his nasopharynx. We were able to see two long pieces of grass and we were able to remove them. We do love a satisfying scope case!

Henry is now recovering at home on pain relief and anti-inflammatories ❤️
