A few weeks ago we had an unusual visitor at the practice 🐑

This adorable boy is a Dutch breed of sheep called Zwartbles, so has been called Matthijs, after the Dutch football player Matthijs De Ligt 🇳🇱

Matthijs was born at an unexpected time of year and was unwanted by his mother. So he’s been adopted by vet Charlotte and now lives happily alongside his new mum ✨

Firework season is upon us and its time to think about our furry friends and get prepared 🐾

ℹ️ According to the RSPCA, 45% of dogs in the UK show signs of fear when they hear fireworks!

🌐 Google ‘signs of fear’ in your species of pet to see if they display fearful behaviour.

Here are a few ideas of how to help your pet. If you are concerned about your animals and would like further assistance, get in touch and we’ll be happy to help✨

This is Lupin, a female tortie & white cat, who was admitted to the practice for a spay 🐾

🅱️ Benefits of having your cat spayed:
- Reduced risk of uterine infection.
- Reduced risk of uterine/mammory cancers.
- Reduces urge for cats to roam.
- Prevents surprise litters.

❓Why use the Elizabethan Collar?
- To prevent animals from licking and chewing the surgical site, which could cause infection and potentially re-open the wound.

If you have a female cat and are thinking of having her spayed, get in touch for more information and to book in😸

To mark the end of Guinea Pig Awareness Week, here is a collection of staff owned guinea pigs🤎

ℹ️ Little known facts about guinea pigs:
- Spanish explorers first brought guinea pigs to Europe in the 1500s.
- They don’t want to live with rabbits! They have different nutritional needs, different ways of communicating and it may even cause serious respiratory illness.
- Guinea pigs need vitamin C just like humans.
- When born, they have a full coat of fur, open eyes and visible teeth. They can also run almost immediately.
- The world’s oldest guinea pig was called Snowball and lived to be 14 years 10.5 months.

📷We would love to see your guinea pigs below!👇

*Update* HONEY HAS A HOME 🏠 Thank you to everyone who shared, commented and called. We are blown away by the response and so happy that Honey has found her forever home!

🍯 This is Honey. Honey belonged to an elderly lady, who unfortunately can no longer take care of her due to personal reasons.

💚 Therefore she is in need of a loving new home for her retirement days.

ℹ️ She is almost 13, is good with children, cats and other dogs. She does need medication due to her stiff joints, but has just received dental treatment and a full health check, with no other concerns from the vet.

📞 Please get in touch if you are interested or would like any other information.

Back in May we had the opportunity to treat a Snowy Owl, named Blizzard, from Pitcombe Rock Falconry🦉

Blizzard had a nasty lump on his wing which needed to be removed, as it was making it difficult for him to fly. This was a difficult and risky procedure, but our vet Charlotte did a magnificent job and Blizzard was returned home the same day🥳

Blizzard is now flying and enjoying life again! It has been an amazing opportunity to work with such an extraordinary bird🤍

Fun fact: Blizzard is the son of Hedwig, who was Harry Potters Owl in the films! ⚡️

Pitcombe Rock Falconry is focused on the rescue and rehabilitation of wild and captive birds of prey. Check them out on Facebook and their website prfalconry.co.uk 🦅
