Springtime in Victoria means cherry blossom season along Government Street, pollen in the air around Beacon Hill Park, and yes, itchy pets.

Seasonal allergies in dogs and cats rarely show up as a runny nose the way they do in humans. Instead, watch for paw licking, ear scratching, red skin around the belly and armpits, and rolling on carpets more than usual. These are some of the early signs families often miss.

If you've noticed any of these changes over the past few weeks, our team at 691 Burnside Rd E can assess what's going on and help put together a care plan that fits your pet and your routine.

Book through the Pet Portal at midtownvets.ca or call (778) 775-8387.

Overgrown nails are one of the most common things we see at Midtown.

When nails grow too long, they press into the ground with every step, changing how your dog walks and putting extra pressure on their wrists, elbows, and shoulders.

Cats with long nails can catch them on carpets, fabric, and furniture. Over time, chronic overgrowth can curl back into the paw pad itself.

Call (778) 775-8387 or book at midtownvets.ca.

Ticks are already showing up on trails across Vancouver Island earlier than many pet owners expect. Even a short walk through grass or along trail edges can be enough for a tick to hitch a ride home.

If you ever find a tick, aren’t sure how to remove one safely, or want to review your pet’s protection plan, we’re happy to help.

Call us (778) 775-8387.

Not every visit starts with smiles… but we always aim to end with one.

Pomen, a 6-year-old cat, came in with vomiting and diarrhea.
With the right care and attention, she’s now feeling much better.

Moments like these remind us why we do what we do — because every pet deserves comfort, care, and a chance to feel better.

If your pet isn’t feeling like themselves, don’t wait. We’re here to help.

Spring weather often means opening windows to let in fresh air.

Falls from windows and balconies are more common this time of year and can lead to serious injuries. The good news is that many of these incidents are preventable with a few simple precautions at home.

If your cat has experienced a fall or you are concerned about their safety, contact us. Our team is here to help.

Easter fun can turn risky for pets faster than many people expect. Bright treats, decorations, and seasonal plants may look harmless but can lead to unexpected emergencies if pets get curious.

If something doesn’t seem right, early attention can help prevent more serious problems.

Sometimes hair loss in cats isn’t just normal shedding. It can be a sign that something isn’t quite right, whether it’s skin irritation, stress, or an underlying issue.
