We’re currently mourning one of our own.

James’ own dog, Kia, sadly crossed rainbow bridge early on Friday morning after an incredible 15.5 years on planet earth, just 7 or so years living here in Cheshire.

Kia was a rescue dog when Millie sadly passed, in order to keep our other special girl, Bella, company.

Being a vet did not make the decision, or action of having to let her go any easier.

Fly high, baby girl. 💔💔

The Last Battle
If it should be that I grow weak,
And pain should keep me from my sleep,
Then you must do what must be done,
For this last battle cannot be won.
You will be sad, I understand;
Don't let your grief then stay your hand.
For this day more than all the rest,
Your love for me must stand the test.
We've had so many happy years -
What is to come can hold no fears.
You'd not want me to suffer so;
The time has come, so let me go.
Take me where my needs they'll tend
And please stay with me until the end.
Hold me firm and speak to me
Until my eyes no longer see.
I know in time that you will see
The kindness that you did for me.
Although my tail its last has waved,
From pain and suffering I've been saved.
Please do not grieve - it must be you
Who had this painful thing to do.
We've been so close, we two, these years -
Don't let your heart hold back its tears.

Our vet, James, has recently been awarded the Peaceful Euthanasia Certificate by the Companion Animal Euthanasia Training Academy.

After 10 hours of structured study and even more of background reading and studies, this cements his committment to providing your pets the most peaceful end-of-life experience.

Our home visit end of life service is run alongside full-time vet work, but we will always do our best to accommodate same day requests at no additional charge.

The quickest way to make contact is to text 07377 518829

FOUND CAT

I have just got back after attending a cat who has been involved in an RTA on Knutsford Road, Cranage.

The cat has a microchip, but sadly the only phone number on file doesn’t appear to be up to date.

The cat is with me, but please share to help find the rightful owner.

Until the admin team at the microchip database are open on Monday, I can’t access any further details.

Many thanks.
