Some pets love to smother us with wet-nosed (or wet-tongued!) kisses, while others prefer to show us their love from a respectful distance.
Always let your pet decide how they show affection, and respect their boundaries if they’re uncomfortable.
Will you get kisses or hisses this International Kissing Day? �

🦷🐱 Cat Dental Care Matters! 🐾
Did you know that by age 3, most cats show signs of dental disease? 😿 Regular dental care can prevent pain, bad breath, and serious health issues like kidney or heart disease.

✅ Brush their teeth (yes, it's possible!)
✅ Offer dental treats or toys
✅ Schedule regular vet check-ups

A healthy mouth = a happy cat! 💛

Although we can often say that a dog or cat is lame from watching them walk, it is a very subjective assessment, and different people may consider the lameness to be more or less severe.
This is where LOAD scoring comes in. LOAD scoring is a reliable and repeatable way to identify if a dog has signs of joint disease.
You can find out more about the process here in our blog: https://bit.ly/4izopYY

Did you know? Human suncream is toxic to our pets.
Don’t worry though, pet safe suncream is available to protect your pets from sunburn.
We would recommend applying pet safe suncream to any parts of your pet that has pink skin showing on sunny days if they spend time outside
- white or black and white cats with white ears are a prime example!
Unprotected continued exposure to the sun can lead to skin cancer.

On Tuesday we had the beautiful Bracken in for the day for a pain assessment, as an anxious girl we had to take our time and be patient with Bracken but she was so brave and took the day in her stride ❤️

Sometimes what looks like “bad behavior” in dogs—like growling, snapping, or avoiding touch—isn’t disobedience at all. It might be pain. 🐶💔

Many dogs hide discomfort well, but changes in behavior can be one of the first signs something’s wrong. Before labeling your dog as aggressive or anxious, it’s important to rule out pain with a proper veterinary assessment. 🩺

👉 Watch for signs like:

Sudden irritability
Reluctance to play or walk
Difficulty jumping or going up stairs
Changes in appetite or sleep
A pain assessment can uncover hidden issues like arthritis, dental problems, or injuries that could be behind the behavioral changes.

Preventing ticks is always better than treating a tick-related illness.

Thankfully, there are lots of effective tick prevention options available,
including spot-on treatments, sprays, and long-lasting collars. These
can be used alongside or sometimes instead of your pet’s usual parasite
control, depending on the product.

Some treatments repel ticks, while others kill them after they attach.
Either way, reducing the time ticks spend on your pet lowers the risk of
disease. Even with protection, it’s still a good idea to check your pet for
ticks after walks, especially in areas where ticks are more common. If
you find one, it’s best to remove it promptly.

Not sure which product is right for your pet? Our vets and nurses are
always happy to help you choose the most suitable option.
Tick prevention is fully covered as part of The Healthy Pet Club
membership.

If you're used to your cat cuddling close to your face, you'll likely
notice quickly if their breath becomes unpleasant! 😽🤢

Bad breath can be a sign of dental disease. Just like us, our feline
friends need regular oral care.

CVS’ colleagues have selected StreetVet as our new Charity of the Year! 🐶💉🏢

Chosen after colleague nominations & a nationwide colleague vote, our fundraising will begin for StreetVet on 1st July. We know that you will put your heart & soul into this worthy cause!

StreetVet provides free, accessible veterinary care to pets of those experiencing homelessness across the UK. Founded in 2016, the charity has grown into a volunteer-delivered service, that takes the practice to the pavement, with over 300 vets & vet nurses delivering care to pets in 23 locations. The charity also champions pet-inclusive housing & support facilities for those experiencing homelessness with their pet, through its Accredited Hostel & Day Centre Scheme, helping ensure no one has to choose between a roof over their head & their beloved companion.

The money raised from the CVS charity partnership will help StreetVet to continue to deliver free veterinary care & expand its reach across the UK, provide essential medical supplies, preventative treatments, daily pet essentials as well as helping to support initiatives like the StreetVet Accredited Hostel & Day Centre Scheme.

To raise money over the next 12 months, our practices will host Pennies’ ‘digital charity boxes’ at our client payment points within 400 of our companion animal practices & referrals hospitals throughout the UK. Pennies lets our clients voluntarily add small donations to their purchases, when paying by card or mobile wallet.

And good luck to all colleagues holding numerous fundraising events. We hope that your sponsored walks, dog shows, cake bakes & donation days all go with a bang!

Can you believe Fern is 10 years old! what's her secret!!❤
On Friday the lovely Fern came to see us for her annual vaccines. Annual vaccines are important for rabbits because they protect against potentially fatal diseases. The main reasons for vaccinating rabbits annually include:

1. Myxomatosis

Caused by the myxoma virus, often spread by fleas and mosquitoes.

Symptoms: swelling, discharge from eyes and nose, lethargy, death.

Almost always fatal in unvaccinated rabbits.

2. Rabbit Viral Hemorrhagic Disease (RVHD)

Two main strains: RVHD-1 and RVHD-2.

Causes internal bleeding, liver damage, sudden death.

Highly contagious and persistent in the environment.

🐶Ollie🐶

Today we had the ADORABLE Ollie in for his castration and deciduous babyteeth removal🦷

Did you know puppies have baby teeth too? Just like humans, dogs develop deciduous (baby) teeth, which usually fall out to make room for adult teeth. But sometimes... they don’t!

❗ Retained baby teeth can lead to:

Crowding or misaligned adult teeth

Increased risk of dental disease

Pain and discomfort

That's why our team recommends removal of retained deciduous teeth, often at the same time as your pup's spay/neuter surgery.

Ollie was such an incredibly brave boy today, and an absolute joy to spend the day with ❤ Well Done Ollie!
