Meet Gerry ๐Ÿพ This handsome lad recently visited us to be neutered and microchipped.

Castration helps prevent unwanted litters, while microchipping gives pets the best chance of being reunited with their families if they ever go missing.

Gerry was a model patient and is now back home, enjoying life with a little extra peace of mind for both him and his owner.

Every day, your support helps us provide essential veterinary care to pets like Gerry across Ireland. Thank you for making stories like his possible ๐Ÿ’™

We have some fantastic news to share ๐ŸŽ‰HUGE congratulations to our Veterinary Nurse Fiona, who won the IVNA (Irish Veterinary Nursing Association) Veterinary Nurse of the Year Award! ๐Ÿ†

We're also incredibly proud that our Head Veterinary Nurse, Michelle, was shortlisted for this prestigious award, recognising her dedication, professionalism and commitment to animal welfare.

Fiona joined The Irish Blue Cross as a locum in June last year before becoming a permanent member of our veterinary team, and we couldn't be more delighted to see her hard work recognised in this way.

Having two of our Veterinary Nurses acknowledged at these awards is a wonderful achievement and a testament to the exceptional care they provide to the animals and communities we serve every day.

Please join us in congratulating Fiona on her well-deserved win and Michelle for being shortlisted! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ’™

With temperatures set to rise over the coming days, we are pleading with pet owners to help keep cats and dogs safe in the heat.

Dogs can be at risk of heatstroke in temperatures over 20ยฐC, especially during exercise. Flat-faced breeds like Pugs and Bulldogs, overweight dogs, and pets with underlying health conditions can be vulnerable even in cooler weather.

๐Ÿšซ Never leave a dog in a hot car
๐Ÿšถโ€โ™‚๏ธ Skip walks during peak heat or walk early morning / late evening
๐ŸŒณ Ensure pets have access to shade indoors and outdoors
๐Ÿ’ง Always provide plenty of fresh water

Please keep pets cool, safe, and comfortable during warm weather: https://www.bluecross.ie/whats-happening/pet-tips-for-hot-weather/
