This lovely skunk initially came in for investigation of fur loss, but it soon became apparent that she had an extra issue of a lump on her front leg. The lump has been surgically removed under anaesthesia, and skin biopsies collected to investigate her skin condition. She has returned home on pain relief to heal up while laboratory results are completed.

Happy birthday Liz! 🎈 πŸŽ‚πŸŽˆ
Wishing a very happy birthday to our head nurse Liz today. With a very appropriate cake baked by the keepers at Wild Zoological Park and a day of zoo cases, interspersed with regular tea breaks, it has been the perfect day for her!

Another hectic day of zoo visits and clinic appointments!
As a practice specialising in zoo medicine we balance attendance on site at collections for regular health checks of animals with our in clinic appointments and it can get a little hectic! Fortunately we work with some lovely animal keepers who keep our sugar and caffeine levels up when we're flagging, and it's always great to get out in the sunshine and see some baby animals!

Rabbit awareness week is coming!
RAW runs from 22nd to 26th of June and during this week we will be offering reduced price vaccination for the VHD2 variant. A health check and Yurvac vaccination will cost just Β£35.
This vaccine is used in addition to the annual triple vaccination and can't be given within two weeks of the other vaccine being administered.
We are happy to provide vaccination as a standalone service to owners registered at other clinics if their practice does not stock this second vaccination, but we would need your vets consent to administer the vaccination and we would not be providing any services other than vaccination health check and administration.
Please call us on 01299887177 or email on [email protected] to book a vaccination appointment.

It has been a week of little animals!
A tiny bantam chick with a toe injury, the smallest species of lemur in existence, a 40g gecko with a sore tail and the tiniest guard dog in the world introduced to our own collection of rescue animals, waifs and strays 🐣 🐭 🦎 πŸ•β€πŸ¦Ί

Vet nurse awareness month is nearly over, but we can't let it pass without acknowledging our vet nurses - the power houses that keep our practice running smoothly! Not only do they care for hospitalised patients, but they are anaesthetists, radiographers, phlebotomists, nutritionists, lab technicians and client care experts. Exotic animal medicine in particular takes a special kind of nurse who can think on their feet, show no fear and deal with any kind of patient!
Liz, our head nurse, is an expert on all things parrot, tortoise and anaesthesia and can cope calmly in any emergency situation (except when we are out of tea!). As well as managing complex clinical cases each day she oversees hospital patient care and multitasks as practice manager, keeping on top of the dull but essential aspects of rotas, ordering and scheduling meetings. 🐒 πŸ“„ β˜•
Annabel works with us part time and has vast experience with companion exotics, particularly with mammal and bird hospitalisation, and has a soft spot for a stray. She is often found managing wildlife cases or kitten rearing! 🐈 πŸ‡
A special nod to Sam as well who helps us out with complex woundcare cases ❀️

We're hiring!
We're looking to add a new vet to our team, but are struggling to find the words to explain why they'd want to join us.
Obviously we have the clear attractions:
βœ… A close knit team who have fun as well as work hard
βœ… The opportunity to work in the most beautiful part of the country (in our opinion!)
βœ… The uplifting presence of chicks (plus lambs and piglets) and their ridiculous hilarity that makes every day cheerful
βœ… A full snack cupboard thanks to our lovely clients (plus an orchard for healthier vets to pick their own!)
What else should we be passing on to new potential vets to really show them what we're about?

Time for a refreshing snack on a hot day! The oldest turkey chicks are happily tucking into a melon while they stay cool in the shade

Business as usual!
Just to reassure you all that as well as complaining about brownie deliveries and taking park in military assault courses, we are still carrying on with clinical work! This week has already seen a huge range of species visit us from budgies to Savannah cats, as well as five separate visits for zoos and inspections squeezed in around our clinic work. We're grateful to have Sara, a very experienced avian and exotics vet, helping us to keep up with the caseload and make sure we continue to provide a high standard of care for all patients even in these busy times!

Great news!
We have had safe delivery of replacement brownies! Our lovely client has arranged for a repeat delivery after DPD helped themselves to the original order. We can confirm they are indeed delicious and though we now fully understand the thievery we still cannot condone it
