Using parasite control is important to keep your pet safe from unwanted friends, but it's important we protect the environment too. DEFRA are conducting a survey to better understand how parasite control in the UK is purchased, applied and disposed of. Follow the link to complete the survey before January 1st 2026.

***FRIDAY FELINE***

Bodhi is a young boy who came to stay with us for the day to be neutered and microchipped. He was very brave and very keen for lots of snuggles and playtime! He certainly kept the nurses busy and entertained!

If you have a kitten that needs to be neutered, microchipped and vaccinated contact us about our kitten package which provides everything you need to give your little bundle of fluff a good start to feline life!

****FRIDAY FELINE****

11 year old Ginge came in recently for a dental procedure after it was noted at his health check tartar was building up on his teeth.

Ginge was a superstar when he came in for the day and took everything in his stride enjoying lots of fuss and some yummy food after his anaesthetic.

Regular health checks ensure your cat is in tip top condition and any concerns can be addressed promptly.

Our nurses are able to perform dental checks too so if you'd like to discuss home dental care for your cat or have their teeth checked book a nurse clinic - available most days between 10.40 and 12.20.

Did you know that our Veterinary Nurses offer a range of nurse clinics?

Weight checks - Weight clinics allow us to create an appropriate weight loss plan for your cat. We also offer weight clinics to check that kittens are gaining weight appropriately.

Adolescent checks - The aim of an adolescent check is to check on your kittens progress between neutering and their first booster vaccination, to discuss behaviour, parasite control, teeth, body condition score and much more.

Dental checks - Dental checks are designed to allow us to check on how your cat’s teeth are doing following dentistry. We will check their teeth thoroughly for signs of dental disease and will provide you information on management and home oral care.

Giving injectable medications - Following from your consultation with one of our Vets we can then inject your cat their required injectable medication.

Post-operative checks - Whether your cat has been neutered recently or has any other surgery or procedure, we are on hand to check that all wounds are healing as they should be.

Microchipping - From 10 June 2024 all cats are required to be microchipped from 20 weeks of age. This can be done during a nurse clinics if your cat has not already been chipped.

Grooming - Sometimes cats are unable to groom themselves efficiently so they may require our help to brush their coat and to remove any matts.

Nail Clips - We are more than happy to assist with clipping your cat’s nails. This could be regular visits or showing you how to clip them yourself.

If you are signed up to our Preventative Healthcare Plan nurse clinics are included!

Feline Lower Urinary Tract Disease can be caused by various things including infections, blockages or can be idiopathic (the cause is unknown - although stress is believed to play a large part in this condition).

Sudden cases where a cat is unable to pass any urine can quickly become an emergency situation and so contacting your vet to discuss any symptoms is very important.

Cats love to have safe spaces to watch the world go by. It might be a windowsill with a favourite blanket, a cosy den under the bed or a cat tower with different levels. Where is your cat's favourite spot?
