🐴 Fun Fact Friday: Did you know? 🐴

Horses have a unique way of communicating that goes far beyond just neighing! 🌟

While they do use vocalizations, their primary mode of communication is through body language—from the position of their ears to the way they swish their tails. For example, when a horse flattens its ears against its head, it’s usually a sign of irritation or annoyance. 🐾👀

Understanding these signals is crucial when caring for our equine friends, whether it's for general wellness or when they’re feeling under the weather. 🏥❤️

🐾 Helping Your Arthritic Cat: Tips for Comfort & Care 🐾

Does your cat seem to be slowing down lately? Arthritis is common in older cats, and it can impact their mobility and quality of life. But don’t worry, there are ways to help ease their discomfort!

Here are a few tips to help your arthritic cat feel more comfortable:

🛏 Provide Soft, Warm Bedding: A cosy spot with soft bedding will help reduce pressure on their joints and keep them warm.

🐱 Encourage Gentle Exercise: Keep your cat active with gentle play. Short sessions of low-impact activity can keep their joints moving.

🧑‍⚕️ Regular Vet Check-ups: Arthritis is progressive, so it’s important to check in with your vet for pain management options and treatments.

💊 Supplements & Medications: Consult your vet about joint supplements or medications that may alleviate symptoms.

🛁 Hydration & Nutrition: Make sure your cat is well-hydrated and eating a balanced diet to maintain healthy joints.

If you notice signs of arthritis like limping, stiffness, or trouble jumping, don’t hesitate to schedule a visit with us! We can help make sure your cat is as comfortable as possible. 💕

📅 Call us today to schedule a consultation and give your cat the care they deserve

🐔 Healthy Hens for Healthy Eggs! 🥚

Did you know that chickens need regular de-worming and parasite treatments? Just like dogs and cats, chickens can pick up internal parasites like roundworms and tapeworms, as well as external pests like mites and fleas.

The good news? There are many safe and effective products available—including those that are suitable during egg-laying periods!

Keeping your flock parasite-free helps ensure they stay healthy, productive, and comfortable. 🐓💛

🌟 Look who came in for a little pampering — meet Mayli! 🌟

This sweet Pekingese came in for a clip and some much-needed care for a pesky hot spot. 🐶✂️

Hot spots are irritated areas of skin that can pop up quickly. They can be itchy and uncomfortable, but with some treatment, Mayli is already feeling so much better! 🩺🛁

If your furry friend is licking or scratching more than usual, it might be time for a check-up.
