A repost from 2022 as today is meant to be hot hot hot.
Here is another reminder to keep your pets cool. Unfortunately in the last heatwave, we were seeing lots and lots of dogs, especially the Brachycephalic breeds who unfortunately are more at risk of heatstroke, out on walks and days out with families on the hottest part of the day. Your loyal companion may look like they are coping well with the heat, even enjoying themselves BUT they have fur, bare paws and lack the understanding of the danger of how hot it is. So please, keep your fur babies safe by keeping them at home with fresh water in a cool room.
Cats will usually keep themselves cool by lying in the shade or, sunbathing until they get hot and then moving but please ensure they have fresh, cool water and plenty of shade to laze under.
Your small furries, if outside, will need lots of shade too but remember that those tunnels, hideys and huts get really hot in full sun so move the whole area to a shady patch to ensure they are as cool as possible. A frozen plastic water bottle wrapped in a towel or blanket for them to lie next to will really help them to cool down, these can be helpful for those indoor pets too if your house gets a little warm.
Symptoms of heatstroke can be: heavy breathing, fast heartrate, lethargy, collapsing, excessive drooling and even seizures.
If you are worried your pet may have heatstroke, please do contact us on 01376 786732

We are over the moon to announce that Vista Vets has reached a significant milestone – 100 five-star reviews! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
From the bottom of our hearts, we want to thank each and every one of our amazing clients for trusting us with the care of your beloved pets. Your kind words and support mean the world to us.
Here’s to many more years of providing top-notch veterinary care and making tails wag! 🐶🐱
Thank you for being part of the Vista Vets family!
Hello everyone!
we need your help!
We have had a Black & White, Female, Medium breed handed into us, unfortunately a microchip cannot be found. We need your help to find her owner!
PLEASE SHARE 🐶❤️
🐱📢 Attention, Cat Lovers! 📢🐱
Exciting news for our feline friends! A new law now requires all cats to be microchipped, ensuring they can always find their way home. At Vista Vets, we offer microchipping for just £23.
Did you know? 🐾 75% of stray cats without microchips never make it back to their owners. Let’s change that! Microchipping is a quick and simple process that can make a lifetime of difference.
Book an appointment with us today and give your kitty the best chance of coming home. 🏠❤️
We are now closed until Tuesday 28th May. Don't forget that if you need medical help for your pet, either contact vidivet using your free membership, or call Vets Now Witham on 01376 530759.
We hope you all have a lovely break! 😸🐶
🌍🐾 Today, on World Stray Animal Day, we would like to raise awareness about the importance of neutering! 🐱🐶
By reducing the number of unwanted puppies and kittens, neutering helps control the stray animal population, which in turn reduces the burden on shelters and animal charities. Neutering can help reduce undesirable behaviors such as roaming, aggression, and marking territory, this can help make pets more manageable and less likely to contribute to the stray population.
Did you know?! Our Vista Pet club includes a 10% discount on neutering, saving you up to £39.50 on the procedure.
We are now closed until Tuesday at 8.30am.
Happy Easter everyone, we hope you have a fantastic break!
Don't forget that if you need medical help for your pet, either contact vidivet using your free membership, or call Vets Now on 01376 530759.
We are now closed until Saturday at 8.30am.
We all hope you have a lovely, emergency free Easter and Bank holiday weekend!
Should you have an emergency, please utilise your free vidivet online service or if life threatening call Vets Now on 01376 530759.
Last orders for medication will need to be in before 6pm tomorrow evening. If you are going to run out of your pets medication before Tuesday 2nd April, please ensure you order more before 6pm tomorrow to ensure we have them in. Thank you

Happy hump day!
We had the pleasure of this giant, handsome boy Tren's presence today as he was in for his castration.
We took some photos so we could show you all how handsome and big he is. Although, we realised after, that next to Vet Student James, he didn't look as giant as he actually is. So in stood Sophie for comparison 😂😂 Tren is big, beautiful and I think you will all agree, very photogenic 😍 Rocking that post surgery pet T-shirt 💙💚
We are super proud to announce our very own VCA Frankie is running The London Marathon to raise money for !
If you'd like to donate to a very worthy cause and help Frankie reach her goal, please use the link below. Every contribution, big or small, makes a huge difference. Your donation will directly support Guide Dogs UK in providing essential services to those in need.

🐾 Happy International Rescue Cat Day from all of us at Vista Vets! 🐱
Today, we're celebrating our amazing rescue cat companions and the incredible bond they share with their humans. Do you have a rescue cat with a heartwarming story? We want to hear all about it! Share a photo and tell us how your rescue cat has changed your life for the better. Whether they're a snugly lap warmer, a playful mischief-maker, or a wise old soul, every rescue cat has a unique tale to tell. Let's spread the love and appreciation for these special feline friends on ! 🌟🐾❤️
This handsome little fella is Roly 😍
Roly came into us recently presenting with vomiting, lethargy and was off his food, which is really not like this food loving boy.
After initially getting better on pain relief, the symptoms reappeared and so further investigations were required.
So... Last Thursday Roly came in for further diagnostics and after an X-ray and ultrasound with our amazing vet Marketa, it was suspected that Roly had a foreign body, causing an obstruction.
Unfortunately the only way to help Roly was surgical intervention and so the team got straight to it and prepped him for surgery.
Our lovely vet Alex operated on Roly and found something you don't find in a cats intestine often, a button 😱 and quite a large one too!
How Roly swallowed a button of this size, or why he even wanted to, we will never know but the main thing is that he is being a super brave boy and recovering amazingly (and thankfully his owners had him insured 🥳🥳)
The first two photos show Roly being a star patient on Thursday and then photo 3 is him recovering well at home. Photo 4 is the offending button that Roly must have thought looked delicious 🧐
Today is National love your pet day! But we obviously all love our pets every day! Today your pets deserve an extra treat, an extra hug and just all round extra love! We would love to see photos of your fur babies at their happiest, getting all the love they deserve 🥰💙💚
Lovable Tinkerbell came in for her spay on Tuesday and was giving lots of love to everyone. We got a couple of snaps of Tinkerbell giving loves to Sophie & Frankie ❤ She really is such a sweetheart 😍
💕 Happy Valentine's Day from Vista Vets! 💕
Would it even be Valentine's Day without a Vista Vets fact post? 😂
Did you know that love and affection aren't just human traits? Our furry, feathered, and scaly friends have their own fascinating love stories to share! Here are some heartwarming facts about love in the animal kingdom:
🐶 Dogs are loyal companions in more ways than one! Research shows that they can form deep emotional bonds with humans and even experience a surge in oxytocin, the "love hormone," when interacting with their favourite people.
🦋 Love knows no boundaries in the insect world! Some species of butterflies engage in courtship rituals that involve elaborate dances and exchanges of pheromones to find their perfect match.
🐦 Lovebirds live up to their name with their affectionate behaviours. These colourful little parrots often snuggle close together and preen each other's feathers as a sign of their strong bond.
Let's celebrate all forms of love today, whether it's between humans or our beloved animal companions! 💖🐾
We are very excited to announce that we raised an absolutely incredible £554!!!! In our Christmas charity tombola. We are over the moon with the amount raised and are very grateful to each and every one of you who helped to support such a great cause. Hopefield Animal Sanctuary are such a deserving charity and we know the amount we raised will go a long way to help the animals in need.
Chow Chow or Teddy bear? How absolutely squishable is Bertie?! He was so chilled after his first visit with us on Monday bless his heart! Not long now and you can go on walkies 🐾🐶
Do you remember Baine the handsome Rottweiler from our post back in October? Well, he came in for a check over with Peter last week and is doing amazingly after his TPLO surgery. Such a brave boy, we are so happy with his progress! 💙💚

Vista does ASMR 😂 We hope you enjoy this reel as much as we enjoyed making it ❤ Watch 'til the end 😂 #asmrvideo #asmrsounds #asmr #somuchfun #satisfying #vistavetschelmsford
We are well and truly in grass seen season. Unfortunately, grass seeds can get attached to our pets fur on walks and in the garden, wherever there is long grass. As well as embedding into their fur and sometimes under their skin, they can also go into the ear canal and cause pain and discomfort. If you have been on a walk with your dog, they like running through the long grass and they start to excessively shake their head, this could mean they have one in their ear and require medical attention. Bertie was just one of our grass seed victims this week, last year he apparently had 4 grass seeds removed from his ears throughout the season, lets hope this one is his last.
Happy International Women's Day 2023! We are very lucky to have such inspirational women on our team here at Vista Vets! Here's to all the amazing women in our lives 🥂 Be strong, be fearless and be YOU!
