Today is National Hairball Awareness Day! Many of our feline friends will bring up a cat hairball at some stage in their lives. 🐱
The odd hairball is to be expected, especially during moulting season in long-furred felines. However, hairballs can sometimes indicate an underlying issue and are something we should be paying attention to.
If you are concerned about your cat, please contact us today and for further pet care and advice visit:

Meet Snacks!
Snacks is a lovely Maine C**n who came to see Dr Lauren Holmes because his owner had noticed pain, squinting and increased tear production in his right eye. Dr Holmes examined him and found that he had a condition known as Entropion in his lower right eyelid, where the eyelid is too long. This causes hairs to rub on the cornea (surface of the eye), which is very uncomfortable.
Dr Holmes performed surgery to shorten the overlong eyelid, so that the hairs no longer rubbed on the eye. After his surgery he is feeling much more comfortable, and was very well behaved for his sutures to be removed. We're sure you will agree that he is a very handsome boy. 😺

Photo 1: Snacks at his initial consultation
Photo 2: A close up of his right eye showing the Entropion
Photo 3: Snacks immediately after surgery with his buster collar
Photo 4: Snacks all recovered with his eyes open and clear

Good news, pets! Breakfast is coming early ⏰🐱🐶
The clocks spring forward this weekend, which means our furry friends get their breakfast an hour earlier (at least in their minds!) 🥓
While we might struggle with the lost hour of sleep, our pets will be thrilled with an unexpected early meal. Just be mindful that some pets have sensitive routines, so a gradual adjustment can help.

Pet insurance helps to cover the cost of veterinary fees if your pet becomes unwell or injured. It can give you peace of mind and ensure that you can afford the necessary care for your pet.
With so many pet insurance policies available in the market, it can be confusing as to what’s right for you and your pet's needs.
Find out from your vet if you're eligible for free cover and for more information about pet insurance:

Did you know that cats sleep an average of 15 hours per day? Some can even snooze for up to 20 hours! 😴 Dogs aren’t far behind them, especially seniors and puppies.
Just like us, pets need quality sleep for their health and wellbeing. Today, let’s celebrate the art of napping - whether it’s a cozy cat curled up in a sunbeam or a dog dreaming of their next adventure.
Share a picture of your pet in their favourite snoozing spot! 📷�
