☀️ HEAT WARNING: The weather is heating up this weekend! ☀️

Our pets cope with heat very differently than we do, and heatstroke can escalate incredibly quickly. Here is your quick guide to keeping your dogs, cats, and rabbits safe this weekend.

🚨 Signs of Heatstroke
Dogs: Heavy panting, excessive drooling, dark red/sticky gums, lethargy, or vomiting.
Cats: Panting (cats should never regularly pant), drooling, stumbling, or restlessness.
Rabbits: Extreme lethargy, breathing with an open mouth, very hot ears, or collapse.

🩺 Emergency First Aid (Act Fast!)
Call your vet immediately.
Move them into the shade or a cool room.
Pour cool (not ice cold) water over their body or lay them on a damp towel. Ice cold water can cause shock.
Offer fresh water (don't force them to drink) and use a fan to circulate air.

🐾 Top Prevention Tips
🐶 Dogs: Walk only in the early morning or late evening. Do the 5-Second Tarmac Test (if it's too hot for the back of your hand, it's too hot for their paws). Never leave a dog in a hot car.

🐱 Cats: Keep curtains closed to create cool zones. Place multiple water bowls or fountains around the house to encourage hydration.

🐰 Rabbits (Highly Vulnerable!): Move hutches completely out of the sun. Freeze plastic water bottles, wrap them in a towel, and place them in their enclosure for them to lie against.

👋 Need extra cooling gear or advice? Pop into our Brentwood Wellness Centre or our 24 hour hospital in Upminster, we stock cooling mats, hydration supplements, and are always here to help.

Stay cool and safe this weekend! 😎🐾

Hi everyone hope you’re all okay and your beautiful fur babies. Just a little update. Had biopsies and camera for women problems last week just waiting for results. Had my shoulder scan today and have an appointment with my consultant on the 5th May so hopefully not long to wait. Found out yesterday what was going on Christmas. I have 2 hiatis hernia so just need to make an appointment next week to make a plan with my doc as I am on medication for reflux but probably need to go up to help as this was a flair up at Christmas. I had camera down my throat yesterday.I will update everyone on the 5th May x missing you all loads and my furry friends ###🐶🐶

🚨PLEASE BOOK don’t leave it to late

Hi I will be putting some groomers on here for some groomers that have availability. The Ones that I have recommended are full so will not put these on.
Please be aware that most groomers will ask for a deposit please book and pay as soon as possible so you know they are booked in as once these spaces go you will find it hard to find a groomer because as it get hotter they will become full so please please don’t leave it💙🐶💙 xx if anyone need Grays or any other area send me a message as I have there number too x mobile groomer if anyone needs it but only WhatsApp her or txt please as she doesn’t use facebook messenger anymore 🐶🐶🐶xx

🚨Please read to the end sorry for long post 🚨

Hi everyone it’s with heavy heart that I have to take a long break 💔😢💔 will miss you all and my furry friends but hopefully it won’t be for too long 🙏🤞🙏 your not just my clients you have become my friends too so this is very heartbreaking for me 😢😢💔💔

As you all know I’ve been very poorly and I hate letting anyone down and moving everyone around to get you in also playing catch up with my daughter 😞 this makes me more stressed 😞

So as you all know I will need 3 op but I’m on a waiting list still. As I’m unable to work as I’ve decided it’s just to dangerous to groom with live animals and sharp tools. My arms can’t cope with the movement and finding it hard to pick dogs up as I don’t have no strength and grip 😢 also I have other things going on which you all know about so no need to put that on here as this is for you all to know not everyone else. I really not sure how long I will be out for but my shoulder recovery is 5 to 6 months once I’ve had surgery.😢

I will miss all my furry friends and I hope you have all booked in with other groomers. As soon as that sun comes out they will get booked up quick. I know a lot of you have booked already and some groomers are full x if you need any help I’m here. I will put some groomers on here in the next week or so but I think I’ve told everybody and everybody has a groomer in place. 🙏🙏🙏🤞🤞🙏🙏.

All my short hair dogs are safe to stay with me as my daughter will take over but the only thing is we have to work around her new veterinary job that she not started yet. congratulations to her. At least they get to come here still. 🥰 lucky them 🥰

I would like to thank all the groomers that are taking over my furry friends and hope you enjoy them like I do. You’re all been amazing in your support but especially Nina and Susan you have taken on so much and Nina coming to me with some of my furry friends that need a little bit more attentions I really can’t thank you enough.🥰🥰 ###

Will keep everyone updated and I really hope the can fix my arms quick
And find out what’s going on with my health 🙏🙏 You can always pop in to have a cuppa and see my girls too as they will be missing their friends too.If not I might see you all over the park 🙏 love too all my furry friends and my girls will definitely miss them too 💔😢💔 ###

Thank you for my flowers and chocolate. if I’ve missed anyone please message me and I do apologise if I have 😬sorry 🥰 ###
