These handsome brothers are Derf and Lucifer, two 1-year-old British Shorthairs who recently visited our Chichester hospital to be neutered. Both boys were absolute stars throughout the day and are now back at home recovering well ❤️

Neutering is an important part of preventative healthcare for cats. It helps prevent unwanted litters and can reduce behaviours such as spraying, roaming and fighting, which in turn lowers the risk of injuries and some infectious diseases. We generally recommend neutering cats from around four months of age, before they become sexually mature. Every cat is different though, so if you're unsure about the right time for your pet, our team will be happy to talk you through your options.

We hope Derf and Lucifer enjoy plenty of rest, cuddles and treats while they recover! 🐱

This little guy was too cute not to share... 🥰

He was recently brought into our Chichester Hospital by a member of the public after being found alone. At only around 10 days old and just starting to open his eyes, he was still incredibly young. Our team made sure he was kept warm, safe and well until the wonderful team at Brent Lodge Wildlife Hospital arrived to collect him. They'll now continue his care and give him the best chance of growing up healthy before returning him to the wild 🦔

There's nothing better than a day by the sea, but every summer we see pets needing emergency treatment after getting into trouble on the beach. Here are a few things to keep an eye out for.

🌊 Seawater: A splash around is great, but drinking too much seawater can cause vomiting, diarrhoea and dehydration. Take plenty of fresh water with you so your dog has something else to drink.

🏖️Hot sand: On sunny days, the sand can get hot enough to burn paws. If it's too hot for your hand, it's too hot for your dog's feet.

🦀 Things washed up on the beach: Seaweed, palm oil, crab shells and other beach finds might be tempting, but they can all make dogs poorly if eaten.

🎣 Fishing hooks and line: These are one of the biggest risks we see. They're often hidden in the sand and can easily become caught in a dog's mouth or be swallowed.

🪼 Jellyfish: Even if they're washed up on the shore, they can still sting noses and paws.

🌊 Waves and strong tides: Not every dog is a natural swimmer. Keep them close and don't let them venture too far if the sea is rough.

🐍 Adders: Keep your dog nearby when walking through dunes or long grass, as adders can sometimes be found in these areas.

Most beach trips end with a tired, sandy dog and happy memories, but if your pet doesn't seem quite right afterwards or you're worried they've eaten something they shouldn't, it's always worth getting them checked.

Six year old Miniature Dachshund Winston recently visited us after suddenly becoming lame on his left hind leg. Following an examination and X-rays, our team were able to rule out a cruciate ligament injury. Winston's signs are most consistent with a flare-up of hip dysplasia, so he's now on a period of strict rest, pain relief and a gradual return to exercise.

A special mention also goes to Winston's owners, who have helped him lose an incredible 1.7kg over the past year. Maintaining a healthy weight plays an important role in supporting joint health and reducing the strain on conditions such as hip dysplasia.

We hope you're feeling more comfortable soon, Winston 🤗

We've had a few questions about our new online pharmacy, so here are some quick answers:

❓ Do I need a written prescription?
No. Orders are reviewed and approved directly by our team.

❓ Can I still order through the practice?
Yes. You can continue to order through the practice as you always have, but many clients may find our online pharmacy a more convenient option for ordering prescription food and medications.
VIP Care Plan members: Prescription medications included in your plan should still be ordered through the practice for now. We're working on making these available through the online pharmacy in the future.

❓ What can I order?
Most long-term medications, prescription diets and selected healthcare products.

❓ Is it delivered to my home?
Yes, your order will be delivered directly to your chosen address within 3-5 days.

❓ Is the online pharmacy cheaper than buying from the practice?
In many cases, yes. Products available through our online pharmacy are often cheaper than purchasing in practice, even when delivery is included.

❓ Why are products often cheaper through the online pharmacy?
Products ordered through our online pharmacy are supplied and delivered directly by our trusted wholesaler. This reduces the need for us to hold and dispense stock in practice, allowing many products to be offered at a lower price.

Ralph is making fantastic progress! 👌

Ten year old Spaniel Ralph recently came back to see our team for his six week check up following TPLO surgery on his knee. The good news is that everything is healing just as we'd hoped. His implants are stable, his bone is healing well and he's now been given the go ahead to gradually increase his exercise over the coming weeks.

Alongside his surgery, Ralph has also been seeing our rehabilitation team Downs Veterinary Referrals for physiotherapy to support his recovery and help him regain strength and confidence. Keep up the great work, Ralph 🙌
