We had this lovely stray boy brought into us yesterday evening.

Whilst he’s happy and has been eating and drinking just fine today, X-rays sadly show that he does have both a tail and pelvic injury. We are awaiting information back from orthopaedic specialists for information about his ongoing care plan.

He is sadly not microchipped, or castrated, and so we currently have no way of reuniting him with his owner.

He is comfortable, safe and warm here with us currently, but we’re really keen to get in contact with his owner.

We have alerted other local vets in case his owners have reported him missing to them, but so far, no joy.

If he may be your cat, please call the practice on 01260 222999 during our routine opening times.

We’d like to say a huge thanks to the hosts of our January staff gathering, Rustica Italian restaurant.

We had a wonderful meal, and a great time celebrating our 2-year anniversary.

The food and service from Rustica was impeccable, and particular credit goes to the 2 young ladies who looked after us all evening.

To anyone able to, please give Rustica a visit: a new independently owned eaterie.

And a huge thank you to all of our clients and their pets for supporting our new independent business for the past 2 years.

Phone system update.

We’d just like to give advanced notice that we’re introducing 2 options to our phone system, which will help the reception team manage the number of calls we get, providing a more efficient service all round.

Once uploaded by our telephone company:

OPTION 1: is for repeat prescription requests. You’ll be asked to leave a message with yours and your pet’s details, the medications requested, and an update how your pet is doing.
Prescription requests will still be processed, and ready for collection within 48 hours as long as approved by the vet.

OPTION 2 is for other companies- to reduce the time taken by unnecessary (and some necessary) calls taking our team away from you and your pets.

For all other queries, the call will ring through to the reception team, who will be happy to help regarding all other queries.

Did you know you can also request repeat prescriptions online? This online service is available 24/7 via your online account at

And just like that, Millie’s Vets is 2 years old today!!

We’ve grown from a team of 3 to a current team of 12.

From Zero patients and clients, we now stand at over 1600 clients with more than 2500 pets, each and every one of which we get to know a little bit better with each visit.

We couldn’t have done this without the wonderful team we have and the support of the local community that we serve. We are genuinely humbled by the trust and support we receive.

Look who came to see us today…

Councillor Riley was in for his routine 6 month healthcheck, which is free as part of his healthcare plan.

Before seeing vet Theresa, Riley was such a patient an understanding boy for his weight check, as you can see here.

It's really important your pet maintains a healthy weight...if you aren't sure if your pet is the right weight, call us and we can book you in to see one of our lovely nurses. If you’d only like to check your pet’s weight, our scales are always on and you can pop in as needed.

Shadow, who was rescued at a week old and hand reared by one of our amazing clients, would like to join the whole Millie's Vets team in wishing all our clients and their wonderful 4-legged friends, a very happy and peaceful Christmas. Thank you for your support during 2024, it has been a pleasure and privilege to look after and treat all your animals.

As the team finish up for Christmas, rest assured that any emergencies when we are closed will be covered by the amazing team at MiNightVet, Stoke, whose details will be given out if you call our practice number.

Merry Christmas everyone.

We’ve been made aware, sadly, or a small bird who has been found deceased in the Henshall Hall Drive area. The bird is small, white in colour with some grey on the head and tail.

If you believe the bird to be yours please contact the practice on 01260 222999 or leave a comment below.

We do not have the bird in our possession.

Thanks.

Update: having spoken to Cheshire Police this evening, they have confirmed that we are able to share images of the suspect. The images have been shared on veterinary Facebook groups from around the country.

We’ve been made aware that the scammer we mentioned last week has targeted 2 vet practices in Newcastle Under Lyme TODAY.

The great thing about Congleton is that we all look after each other and so all practices in the area have made each other aware.

IF we happen to be targeted, please accept this post as an apology in advance, as we understand that the man turns VERY aggressive, and we will not tolerate such behaviour.

If you happen to be in the practice and see events unfold, PLEASE calmly make your way to safety and call the police on our behalf if safe to do so. Please use 999 to report a crime in progress.

We have our own internal systems in place, but your help in calling the police would also be much appreciated.

Images have been shared with Cheshire Police.

Again, many thanks for your understanding, and thanks to our local colleagues for letting us know.

MEDICATION COLLECTIONS

We have a lot of medications awaiting collection. The team are in the process of re-texting clients who have meds ready.

It helps us immensely if medications and food can be collected within a few days of receiving your text, as storage space is becoming fuller by the day.

Please also allow 48 hours for prescription requests to be processed, as each one has to be checked and approved by one of the vets.

With lots of shorter weeks and bank holidays approaching, please ensure you have sufficient medication/food if your pet has a chronic illness; ourselves and the wholesalers/drug companies will all be closed at various times over the festive period.

Many thanks for your continued support.

12/12/2024

We are saddened to report that a gang of scammers are targeting veterinary practices up and down the country, defrauding practices both in person and online/by telephone, out of thousands of pounds.

Please understand that we have tightened our security measures to avoid us falling prey to this ongoing situation.

For security reasons, we can’t share what they’ve been doing and how, but we do have images of some of the culprits, and information has been freely shared within the veterinary community.

To the fraudsters- the profession is aware of what you and what your fraud attempt look like. You will be captured on 3 of our own CCTV cameras plus many others on neighbouring buildings before you even get into our reception area, and we have informed our local police who will be on alert for your presence at ANY practice in Congleton and surrounding areas.

Thank you, to our wonderful clients, for your support and understanding at this time.

To our colleagues in practices near and far- thanks for sharing your experiences of this abhorrent group of people with the wider profession.

06/12/2024

Early closure tomorrow: Saturday 7th December.

We’d like to let everyone know that the practice will be closed tomorrow at 2pm instead of our usual 4pm.
This is due to our staff Christmas Party.

If you’d like to collect medication tomorrow, please do so before 1.45pm.

Thank-you for your ongoing support.

James and The Millie’s Vets Team.

Meet Bow, an XL BULLY ‘type’ dog who has been correctly exempted under the recent changes to the banned breeds list. Bow has been under our our care since she was acquired by her owner (before the ban came into force). As part of her legal exemption, Bow was recently spayed by vet James, a few weeks ago. Today, Bow was in for her annual health check and vaccines. In the video you can see her receiving her intranasal dose of the kennel cough vaccine. Bow was an absolute superstar and took both the intranasal vaccine and injectable vaccines amazingly well without so much as a skin twitch. Well done Bow, and her owner for investing the time into training her.

Today we had the pleasure of a visit from the beautiful Limo! She came in to get herself weighed and to pick up her monthly parasitics. As Limo is on our health care plan, her owner doesn't need to worry about those pesky parasites. Monthly flea, tick and wormer is all included.

Limo had the best time running around the waiting room and getting lots of fuss from the whole team. We are a little bit smitten with her ❤️

If your pet is on Yumove Senior, specifically sourced from Amazon, please see the post issued by Lintbells, the manufacturers of Yumove regarding counterfeit product.

We understand the cost of treating your beloved pets is ever-rising with everything else, and so we understand why you may seek to source your pets products online.

It is incredibly uncommon for fake products to make it to market, but this case shows it is absolutely possible.

Please only purchase from reputable sources, which can include your chosen veterinary practice.

All of our products are sourced only through the three main veterinary wholesalers and we have contact from virtually all product manufacturers too, to guarantee the legitimacy of our supply chain.

We applaud Lintbells for taking ownership of this issue which was absolutely not of their making.

If you have queries, and sourced your product online, please contact Lintbells directly.
