This is Cheddar, who came in with her own behaviour warning 🥰

She's had a long road of recuperation after an emergency referral for neurological symptoms; her head was tilted to one side and her pupils were different sizes.

Last week we were able to remove the polyp from inside her ear, which was causing everything, and we can finally wish her a speedy recovery after her operation 🎉

From 10am on Friday (27th), we are opening our doors to everyone and offering tea, coffee and cake for a small donation to charity. We are also offering you a safe place to come and say hello to us, have a chat if you want to, or have a wander outside, you can even arrange to meet friends or family and spend some time together.

Christmas isn't necessarily a happy occasion for everyone, we know only too well how difficult it can be to cope when you've lost your pet, or loved one, no matter when it happened.

There are no rights and wrongs with grief, everyone processes it differently; you may feel lost, or you may be coping well for a time only to find you feel bereaved all over again, especially around anniversaries such as birthdays, and notable times of the year, like Christmas.

Please remember you're not alone, there are many helplines available to you 24/7, including on Christmas day.

Santa brought us the best present this year: a new theraupeutic laser!

This can be used for a huge variety of conditions such as skin wounds, acute soft tissue and sports injuries, and chronic degenerative diseases such as arthritis.
It is often used in conjunction with acupuncture and physiotherapy to provide safe and effective treatments whilst attempting to reduce reliance on pharmaceutical drugs where possible and appropriate.

This is Spud receiving his safety training about the importance of wearing eye protection during treatments. Safety first as always!

The Christmas tree is up and there's plenty of Christmas toys and treats to choose from for your furry friends 😀

Kirsty's Whippet, Mac, proudly modelling his new Christmas jumper - as an older chap he doesn't have as much fur as he used to so he needs his warm layers during the chillier months, it's a great excuse for making them festive layers! 🤩
