Did you know chocolate is toxic for dogs and cats? 🍫

Dark chocolate and cocoa powder are especially dangerous due to their high theobromine content, which is toxic for pets.

Ingestion can lead to vomiting, diarrhoea, rapid heart rate, seizures, and in severe cases, death.

If your pet manages to sneak some chocolate, get in touch with us straight away!

We’d like to raise awareness about osteoarthritis. This degenerative condition leads to inflammation and pain in the joints.

Golden oldies are more likely to suffer from this condition that can affect both dogs and cats. You might notice:
🐾 Decreased activity
🐾 Increased irritability
🐾 Increased vocalisation
🐾 House-soiling
🐾 Difficulties grooming
🐾 Reduced mobility
🐾 Altered gait (stiffness, lameness)

If you notice any of these signs in your pet, don't hesitate to talk to us!

Our team of veterinary nurses can help with pain control with regular injections, if needed.

Get in touch with us for more information.

Emotional well-being matters for pets, too.

Did you know that small changes at home can reduce stress and improve their quality of life? These include:

🐾 Keeping a predictable routine for meals, walks and sleep

🐾 Providing choice, like safe hiding spots, comfy beds and high places for cats

🐾 Using toys and puzzle feeders to relieve boredom

🐾 Offering gentle, positive training and not punishment

🐾 Watching out for any signs of stress, such as pacing, panting, overgrooming or changes in appetite

If you are concerned about your pet’s stress or behaviour, please get in touch with us and we will be happy to help.

Did you know pets can also have breast cancer? 🐕 🐈

That's why, during October, we wanted to take the time to talk about this important cancer type in our furry friends and how you can help prevent it.

For female pets, the best way to reduce the chances of your furry friend developing breast cancer is by neutering them, ideally, before their first cycle.

It’s also essential to keep an eye out for early signs like lumps on the skin and wounds that don’t seem to heal, as it’s best to treat cancer as soon as possible to ensure the best outcome.

If your pet is ever diagnosed with cancer, we have an amazing oncology service at Avenue, where we manage these conditions holding patient welfare and quality of life at the heart of every decision, and where owner’s views and wishes are always respected.

Do you have any questions about cancer in animals? Don't hesitate to talk to us, and we'll gladly go over any concerns you might have.

Today, we’d like to introduce one of our RVNs, Sarah! 🥳

Here’s what she has to say about working at AVC and her hobbies:

“I qualified as a Registered Veterinary Nurse in 2025 and joined the AVC team shortly after. I enjoy all aspects of nursing but have a particular interest in inpatient care & nursing consultations.

Outside of work, I enjoy cooking, photography, walking in the countryside and I have recently taken an interest in cycling. I am kept busy by my two crazy cats, Lily (pictured) and Abi. 🐈🐈”

Help us give Sarah a warm welcome and say hi in the comments! 👋🐾
