Say hello to the adorable Jessie 💕

Jessie has been coming in for social clinics at Kingsnorth every month to habituate to the vet clinic

She loves coming in and is super happy having a health check!

These social clinics involve coming in for some treats, a fuss, weight checks, administering flea and worming. They are really beneficial to make the vets a happy place rather than a scary place!

Are you and your pet prepared for bonfire night? 🎆🎇🧨

Loud bangs, pops and bright flashing lights can be very stressful for pets and their owners, so we wanted to share a few measures you can put in place to help your pet, including a great pet playlist, which you can play to help distract your pet from the frightful fireworks.

While fireworks light up the skies, we advise you to:
🏠 Stay at home with your pet
💧 Ensure they have access to fresh water
🚪 Close curtains, blinds, windows and keep doors closed
🎪 Provide a safe space with bedding for your pet to snuggle in, and consider bringing small animals inside.

CClassic FM in collaboration with the RSPCA, has put together a list of pet classics, a special programme to help the weekend >> https://ow.ly/ifxC50Q3Qvu

Have you got pet insurance?

There are lots of benefits to having your pet insured, such as:

✔️ Peace of mind

✔️ Prompt treatment

✔️ Claims could be paid directly to your vet

✔️ Other unexpected costs could be covered

✔️ Decisions are not based on finances.

Of course, we hope you'll never need to use it, but it's worth knowing the benefits.

29/10/2023

Time to introduce some of our fab Kingsnorth reception team! 💙

These superstar ladies work extremely hard to make sure our front of house is running smoothly and what a cracking job they do. The vets and nurses would be lost without them.

KEEP YOUR PET SAFE THIS HALLOWEEN 👻🎃👹

Halloween can be a ‘spooktacular’ time of year for many, but it can be a stressful experience for pets. Here are some helpful tips to keep your pets safe and happy during the Halloween season:

🐶 Spend time reassuring your pets if you plan to dress up for Halloween. Masks and makeup may be enjoyable for you, but your pets may find them scary if they don't recognise you.

🚪 With the constant opening and closing of doors for trick-or-treaters, ensure your pets are kept from potential escape routes. It's also important to have your pets micro-chipped in case the unexpected happens.

🎆 If bright lights or loud noises are anticipated, provide a safe and comfortable space for your pets to retreat to.

🍬 Keep sweet treats out of reach, including chocolate, sweets, and anything containing xylitol.

🎃 Decorations have become a big part of Halloween; however, curious pets can sometimes get into trouble with them. To ensure your pets stay safe, keep open flames, small decorative lights, and decorations out of their reach.

We hope you have a safe and 'fang-tactic' Halloween, but should you need us, we will be here for you and your pet.

🐾Bertie came into our Rye clinic for a consultation to have a Freestyle Libre fitted. Bertie is a diabetic patient and having the Freestyle Libre fitted means that both his owners and the clinical team can keep an eye on his blood glucose throughout the day! Bertie enjoyed lots of fuss and cuddles from the nursing team during his consultation🐈

GETTING YOUR PET READY FOR DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME CHANGES!

We're all looking forward to that extra hour of sleep when the clocks go back on Saturday 29 October, and lighter morning, but have you considered the impact on your pets? 💤🌞🌔

🕰️When the time changes, it can cause psychological and physiological stress for your pet due to changing their routine.

We suggest gradually changing their schedule in the days leading up to the clock change to make the transition easier.

🦮🦴Start a week before and adjust their feeding, walking, and waking times by ten minutes each day. While changing, it's not uncommon for pets to have accidents indoors, but it's important to remain patient with them as they don't understand the reason for the time change. To ease your pet into the new schedule, delay their routine by an hour over several days.

If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact us.

🐰🐹🐇🐭

The loud bangs and flashing lights of fireworks can be distressing for small animals. As Bonfire Night approaches, ensuring that your pets are well-prepared for the occasion is important. If you own small animals like rabbits or guinea pigs, here are some tips to help them remain calm and happy.

🧶Provide extra bedding if your pet lives outdoors so they can burrow down and feel safe from any bright lights and loud noises. This will give them a comfortable and secure space to hide away from the excitement.

🏡Consider bringing your pet indoors for the night to shield them from the noise and commotion of the evening. Playing some relaxing music can also help to muffle the sound of fireworks and create a calming atmosphere.

🚪If your pet already lives indoors, close curtains and windows to dampen the sound of loud bangs and create a more peaceful environment.

If you have any further questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Today is World Mental Health Day, a day to reflect on the significance of prioritising our mental well-being and supporting those around us to do the same.

One way to achieve this is by showing kindness, and there's nothing quite like the love we receive from our pets that can work wonders for our mental health.

With 1 in 4 people experiencing mental health issues each year, caring for a pet can contribute to positive mental health in many ways, including:

💚 Providing companionship, security, and someone to spend time with

💚 Reducing anxiety and increasing self-confidence

💚 Offering unconditional love and being great listeners

💚 Encouraging physical activity through daily walks or runs

💚 Facilitating social interaction with other pet owners

💚 Providing structure to the day with feeding, exercising, and caring for a pet

💚 Elevating serotonin and dopamine levels through play leads to a calming and relaxing effect.

Take some time today to prioritise your mental health by spending time with your pet. Enjoy the time you spend with them, taking your dog for a walk, cuddling with your cat, or giving your pet a stroke.

🍂 🐱 As autumn sets in and the nights grow longer, it's time to prepare for Bonfire Night. However, while fireworks bring us joy, they can be distressing for our feline friends.

As clever creatures, cats require extra care during this time. Here are some tips to help keep your cat safe and comfortable:

🏠 Keep your cat indoors where possible and make sure they are microchipped
🤫Create a cosy and quiet space inside where they can relax and avoid the noise.
🐱Consider giving them calming treats or supplements to help them stay calm. A pheromone diffuser may also be beneficial, particularly to start using ahead of the celebration season.

Do you have any additional tips to help fellow cat owners? Share your top tips in the comments below.

If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to us.
