🦜 IMPORTANT NOTICE – AVIAN INFLUENZA

Avian influenza is currently on the rise in our area, so we are taking extra precautions to help protect all of our patients.

If you are bringing in a pet bird or have found a wild bird in need of veterinary attention, please do NOT bring them directly into the practice.

👉 All pet birds and wild birds MUST remain outside until they have been triaged by a member of our team.

Please wait outside and contact reception on arrival so a member of staff can come out to you and assess the situation before the bird enters the practice.

Thank you for helping us keep our avian patients safe💚

If you have any concerns or are unsure what to do, please speak to a member of our team before bringing the bird inside.

Your dog slowing down, or could there be something more going on?

Less enthusiasm for walks, stiffness after resting or changes in behaviour aren't always just signs of ageing. They could be signs your dog is living with chronic pain.

The good news? Recognising the signs early can help you get them the support they need to stay comfortable and active.

Use our online pain checker to help spot the signs and find out when to speak to your vet: https://ivc.co.uk/services/pain-management

🐹 HAPPY GUINEA PIG AWARENESS WEEK! 💚

And that’s a wrap on our Guinea Pig Awareness Week! 🐾

This week, we’ve been sharing helpful tips and advice on guinea pig diet, health, behaviour, housing and companionship – all to help our little furry friends live their happiest and healthiest lives.

Guinea pigs may be small, but they have big personalities and very special needs. From providing plenty of hay and a suitable companion to recognising the early signs of illness, understanding their care makes a huge difference.

A big thank you to everyone who has shared their gorgeous guinea pigs with us this week! 🥰

We’d love to see some more! 📸 Share a photo of your guinea pigs in the comments below and let us celebrate these wonderful little characters together.
