The autumn equinox falls on Monday 22 September and marks the start of autumn, when day and night are equal. It’s a seasonal shift that can affect your pet’s routine, energy levels and outdoor habits.

How does the autumn equinox affect your pet?🐶🐱

As the seasons shift, your dog might enjoy longer walks in the cooler weather. While you're out and about, keep an eye out for seasonal hazards like mushrooms, antifreeze and ticks.

Cats, on the other hand, may start spending more time indoors, seeking warmth and comfort. With less outdoor roaming, it’s important to keep them mentally stimulated: think cosy hideouts, interactive toys or window perches to watch the falling leaves. 🍂

Vaccines do more than just protect — they supercharge your pet’s immune system, shielding them from potentially life-threatening infectious diseases. Plus, every vaccination appointment includes a thorough health check from nose to tail, giving you peace of mind that your pet is happy, healthy, and thriving.

If it’s been over a year since their last jab, good news — it’s not too late. You can still book their booster without having to restart the course. But if they’re more than 3 months overdue, they’ll need to begin a full vaccination course again. Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered.
Join Our Vaccine Catch-Up Campaign!

Give your furry friend the care they need! Pay for the first overdue vaccine, and we’ll cover the second, ensuring their safety at an affordable price.

Let’s keep your furry friend safe, healthy, and ready for all of life’s adventures. Book today!

Call us on 01373 466100 and our reception team will advise you of the next available appointment and answer any questions you may have.

Toxins your pet should avoid in autumn

Autumn Pet Toxins: Horse Chestnuts (conkers)

The toxic ingredient in conkers is also found in the leaves and bark of the tree, so keep an eye out to make sure your pet doesn't eat these either. Conkers are also a choking hazard, and can potentially cause bowel obstructions if swallowed whole, which may require emergency surgery. Signs to look for in your
pet include vomiting and diarrhoea, excessive drooling, excessive thirst or reduced appetite. In severe cases, ingestion can cause muscle tremors or seizures.

Today is National Wildlife Day: a time to celebrate and protect the incredible animals that share our planet. Whether it's the foxes in our fields or the birds in our back gardens, wildlife plays a vital role in our ecosystem. As animal lovers, we know how important it is to support conservation efforts and promote coexistence with nature. Let’s take a moment to appreciate the wild ones and do our part to keep them safe and thriving.

Why do cats love cardboard boxes? Because they’re cosy, enclosed and just the right size to feel safe and warm - the perfect feline hideaway. They’re also a great place to pounce, play and scratch.

So why do we keep buying expensive fancy toys and beds, expecting a different reaction...? 😹

Remember, if your cat is ever a little less playful than usual, or hiding more, these small changes can say a lot
about their health. Contact us if something’s amiss so we can help keep them happy and healthy.

Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day is observed annually on August 28th. It's a heartfelt day dedicated to honoring and remembering beloved pets who have passed away. For the pet owners among us, it offers a special moment to reflect on the unconditional love, joy and companionship our furry friends brought into our lives.

While the day may stir feelings of sadness, its true purpose is to celebrate the lives of these cherished animals: reminiscing the happy memories, silly habits and unique bonds that made them a part of the family.

Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day encourages us to keep their spirit alive in our hearts forever. 🌈❤️
