Stormy is a 3 year old Domestic Shorthair cat 🐱 who visited us recently for an orthopaedic procedure called a Femoral Head & Neck Excision (FHNE).

This is a procedure that can help to treat painful hip conditions.

Stormy’s own vet referred him to us as our vet Brian has a certificate in orthopaedic 🦴 surgery and has a lot of experience in orthopaedic surgery.

As you can see he was such a great wee patient and his owners have said that he is recovering well! ❤️‍🩹

Everyone meet Bandit 🐶 who is a Jack Russell Terrier and is 10 years old.

Bandit has a condition called Hyperadrenocorticism, otherwise known as Cushing’s Disease.

This condition affects the adrenal glands where they overproduce something called Cortisol into the pet’s body. Too much Cortisol in the body can then cause other conditions and illnesses such as Kidney issues and Diabetes.

Bandit is on medication 💊 to help control his Cushing’s Disease and visited us yesterday for a blood test to check his Cortisol levels. This blood test is advised to be carried out regularly to ensure the pet’s condition is stable.

As you can see Bandit is such a good boy smiling 😊 for a photo & we can confirm that his Cushing’s Disease is still under control!

09/10/2024

Maisie the 24 weeks old Domestic Shorthaired cat 🐱 visited us last week because she was in a lot of pain!

Vet Elisa 🩺 decided that she needed some X-Rays to try and find out some more information which ruled out conditions such as fractures.

We are now managing Maisie on some much needed pain relief. Hopefully she will do much better and that the pain relief makes a difference!

As you can see from the photo, she is a beautiful wee cat, who is very in with the season with her Autumn 🍂 towel she brought with her.

Zola the 22 weeks old Ragdoll X 🐱 was in recently for her spay and microchip.

Zola’s humans have signed her up to the complete care junior healthcare plan which meant she received a discount off her spay but also meant the microchip was complimentary.

Some patients benefit from a medical pet suit for their recovery ❤️‍🩹 instead of or in addition to a buster collar. The medical pet suit can help keep wounds protected and help the pet feel more comfortable in their recovery.

As you can see, Zola was being such a great patient in modelling one of these medical pet suits for you!

If your pet needs surgery and you would like some more information about the medical pet suit and if it would benefit your pet, then please call ☎️ the practice on 01236 368230.

Happy Monday folks!

Everyone meet this smiling boy Rocco 🐶, who is a 3 years old Jack Russel Terrier X.

Rocco spent the day with us last week for his castration. He was such a good boy and he is doing well recovering at home 🏠.

If you would like your male dog booked in for castration, then please call ☎️ the practice on 01236 368230 to arrange an appointment.

17/08/2024

Come spend the day with us 🏥 as little Cooper shares his visit with you.

Cooper the Golden Retriever puppy is only 15 weeks old and has a condition called Lingually Displaced Canines 🦷. This means his two lower canines point towards the tongue rather than away from the tongue.

The condition causes the teeth to stick into the upper mouth, which in turn causes pain and discomfort 🥺. It is also hereditary so we don’t recommend breeding from the pet that has the condition as it can then be passed on.

Treatment involves surgical removal of the baby canines, which Cooper was in for. Then a process called Ball Therapy is started when the adult canines start to erupt to hopefully correct the adult teeth.

As you can see, Cooper was such a brilliant patient. He even showed off the tricks that he has learned!

16/08/2024

CT Friday ☢️

Come spend the day with us as we show you what it’s like for a patient coming in for a CT scan!

Shane the Labrador 🐶 recently had a CT scan of his knees as the Vet was concerned about potential arthritis, due to his previous history of a knee condition. Luckily the CT Scan has shown little signs of this so far!

As always, Shane was such a good boy. His tail was still wagging in recovery ❤️‍🩹 even though he was feeling a bit yucky from the sedation medications.

15/08/2024

✨ Puppy Chaos ✨

How cute are these Labrador puppies who will be 6 weeks old tomorrow!

They came in to see Vet Brian 🩺 for their puppy healthchecks and microchips.

The whole team couldn’t resist the cuteness so we stole some cuddles. Some of the puppies even helped us out by answering the phones!

When Kelly from our Colton store's Pets Grooming salon discovered a lump on the tail of nine-year-old Rufus she suspected something wasn't right, so alerted his owners Les and Andrea so they could get it checked out. They brought him to Vets for Pets Leeds Colton where it was confirmed he had a cancerous tumour which needed surgery.

Les, who adopted Rufus from Dogs Trust in Leeds as a puppy, said: “Rufus is such a big part of our life; we’re absolutely besotted with him. We probably wouldn’t have noticed the lump if not at the groomers as the tail isn’t somewhere you would usually stroke and feel. Kelly loves Rufus and really looks after him, so we want to say a big thanks for spotting it. Who'd have known what would have happened if she hadn’t noticed.”

Rufus had to have his tail removed, but is now making a good recovery. He's been visiting Kelly for a groom every six weeks for the last three years. She said: “You get to know everything about a dog as you groom them. I’ve discovered similar things before on other dogs so I mentioned it to the owners so they could get it checked out. Dogs are my life and you do worry; I’m so pleased they caught it. Now he’s got a fully docked tail like a little bunny rabbit. It’s lovely and suits him – when he gets washed he wiggles his bum.”

Arthur's owner Louise says he "looked like a brand-new tortoise" after having his beak filed at Sutton in Ashfield Vets4Pets.

Louise adopted the four-year-old Horsefield Tortoise from a family member in October. Although she has had other pets, Arthur is her first tortoise, so she has been doing some research on how to best care for him.

Louise said: "I noticed Arthur's beak was unusually long, so I brought him in to Vets for Pets; I bring all my pets there. When he came out, I thought 'you beautiful boy, look at you – you look so handsome!"

Vet Steph, who looked after Arthur, says that tortoise beaks continuously grow and normally grind down themselves while they're eating. She said: "Arthur needed a little help as his jaw isn't perfectly aligned; his lower jaw is further out than his top jaw, so I filed it around half a centimetre. He was really good; a real cutie."

18/02/2024

Owner Claire says she couldn't be more grateful to Vets4Pets Hamilton after their quick diagnosis saved the sight of six-year-old Alba.

Claire knew there was something terribly wrong with her miniature dachshund cross when she called her in from the back garden last summer and Alba ran headfirst into a closed patio door. She rushed her to the vets, where investigations led the team to diagnose her with uveitis – an eye condition which causes inflammation of the middle layer of the eye.

Claire said: "It all happened so suddenly; Alba must have heard my voice and guessed where to go. It was quite scary seeing how bad she was. We couldn't be more grateful for the team in Hamilton spotting the uveitis as quickly as they did, otherwise Alba would have gone blind within a matter of days. Their knowledge saved Alba's sight. I still can't believe it happened. It's taken months of treatments, but it's such a relief to have our girl back to being her funny, bossy self."

Vet Neil, one of the team who treated Alba, said: "Alba's pupil was really narrow and wouldn't respond to light properly, which can be a sign of uveitis. Once we had ruled out other conditions, we were able to get her to an eye specialist for ongoing treatment. She's now doing really well."

16/02/2024

Ducky's owner Antonia was in a state of panic when she saw a fox had dug its way into the field where she keeps him – killing two of her other ducks and chickens.

Antonia was about to move her brood into their pen for the evening when she saw what had happened and noticed that Ducky had severe bite wounds under his wing. She rushed him to Vets4Pets Vets Milton Keynes for emergency surgery – and after having his wound stitched up the one-year-old duck is now making a good recovery.

Antonia said: "I was so worried. You don’t often hear of ducks recovering from fox attacks, but there is something about Ducky and the way he was so brave. I'm sure he was protecting a lady duck, as he's a bit of a romantic. It's the first time we've gone to Vets for Pets, and the team were amazing; they've done an incredible job."

Vet Becca, who treated Ducky, said: "He's a really lucky duck, as it was quite a big wound. When he first came in, he was understandably subdued and quiet but when he came back for his stitches to be taken out, he wanted to explore and tuck his head into everyone’s shoulders."

07/02/2024

Well done to the team at Vets4Pets Guildford who've been awarded a silver level certificate for being a rabbit-friendly clinic.

After head veterinary nurse Ella noticed that more customers were bringing in rabbits the practice took a series of steps to give them as stress-free an experience as possible. Ella, who also fosters rescue dogs in her spare time, said: "There was a long list of things that we needed to prove that we did from making sure the rabbits are kept separate from other animals and not booked in at the same time as barking dogs, to providing heated kennels for those who need to stay in, and using special equipment made especially for rabbits."

Practice manager Kevin said: "All of our vets have plenty of experience with rabbits we have some real rabbit geeks here, so it was a big thing to us. There are so many good people in this world and I'm so proud to be around them."

28/01/2024

Beautiful Bear was born deaf, so he's learned to follow his owner Lisa's visual commands.

Lisa, who shops at our Tamworth store – "it's my second home!" – got two-year-old Bear as a kitten and suspected he was deaf when he didn't respond to her voice. She had it confirmed by her vet soon after. She said: "He was very scatty, and scared of people he didn’t recognise. He wasn’t bothered by loud noises like my other cat Emily and when I came home from work he wouldn’t hear the door open.

"He's doing really well though. I try to do some sign language with him – I point at him and do a solid hand sign at him to stop. He picks up on vibrations and scents too. He meows, making a really loud chirping sound which I’ve never heard a cat do before, and he’s always rubbing his head against my legs and following me everywhere. I was advised not to let him out because he wouldn’t hear cars or other dangers, so he comes outside with me every morning to have a sniff around the garden and always comes straight back in." Bear and Lisa's other cat Emily are on Instagram as

Ten-year-old Dutch rabbit Alfie has been visiting vet Kate at Vets4pets Wolverhampton for dental treatment for the last eight years – and she says he's such a loveable character that he's become "part of the family".

He's one of the oldest rabbits treated by Kate and the team, and she says his longevity is down to the care and love he gets from his owner Tracy and her family. Kate said: "Alfie is famous in this practice – everyone knows him. We and his family are dedicated to making sure her little old man is happy. The beautiful thing about being a vet or vet nurse is you build these relationships with the owners and their pets – they become your surrogate pets."

Tracy's been keeping rabbits all her life, and says that having space and routine is key. She said: "Alfie is an old man now and has a routine. He goes into a hutch at night and is let out in the morning. He's out all day and has his favourite spots in the house. We clean him out every day and give him a lot of attention. When he was younger he would follow us around; if I was clearing a cupboard out he would be in the cupboard to help. Now he's old and wants to be warm and watch instead. I can't thank Kate and the practice enough. Kate's been fantastic with him."

26/01/2024

Eight-year-old Winnie the Schnauzer cross is running around like a puppy again thanks to laser treatment and physiotherapy after two successful knee operations at Vets for Pets Basildon.

Worried owner Tracy brought Winnie in to the practice after she collapsed on a walk last year – and the team discovered the cruciate ligament in a knee had ruptured. She’s since had ops on two knees and is on a recovery plan led by vet physiotherapist Izzy.

Tracy said: "Winnie has had a tough year with 15 teeth removed, two cruciate ligament operations and two bouts of pancreatitis but thankfully she's hardy. She’s treated fabulously at the Basildon practice. Izzy is great with her – she totally relaxes in her hands and does little snores with her eyes open. Winnie has a new lease of life again and is running around like a puppy."

Izzy said: "When pets have surgery or injure themselves they move differently which causes them to be sore in other places. Winnie has laser therapy then a massage to help the healing process. Laser treatment is a specialist service that not enough people know about – it can help in so many ways after an operation.”

Veterinary nurse Mel from Vets4Pets Bristol Longwell Green loves cats so much she's helped the practice make a number of improvements to give cats as stress-free an experience as possible when they're brought in.

Mel, who has an Advanced Certificate in Feline Behaviour for Veterinary Professionals, helped introduce facilities like a separate feline waiting area and cattery and the use of quiet clippers – and the practice now has a silver level certificate for being a cat-friendly clinic. She said: "I love dogs but I'm really a cat person. Cats can be misunderstood which can lead to them having quite a stressful life, so if we can make things easier for them and help people understand what cats need then everyone will be happier.

"As animal lovers there's always more to learn and understand about what makes them happy. Enrichment at the home is important for a happy cat – and as cats are naturally solitary animals if you live in a multi-cat household it's important to understand what they need. The rule is to have a resource per cat, plus one spare. So if you have two cats you should have three feeding stations, three litter trays and three scratch posts spread around the house so they have the opportunity to move around to wherever they want to go. Scratching is as natural a thing for cats to do as going out hunting is, so if they're unable to go out it's about providing the chance for them to behave as naturally as possible."

Four-year-old Sebastian the Jack Russell is back to his usual boisterous self after being treated at Vets4Pets Abingdon for a condition that was causing the knee caps on his back legs to dislocate when he walked.

The condition, known as medial patellar luxation, would cause him to hop or skip when exercising. It's quite common in terriers and small dog breeds, but Sebastian's case was quite severe and he was given surgery by orthopaedic surgeon Joe to deepen the groove his patella runs in on his right hind leg, and also to move and reattach his patellar tendon.

Sebastian is owned by practice vet Hannah who said: "After the operation he just wanted to get back to normal straight away but he couldn't ... and that's where we struggled. He wanted to be out and about, charging around and playing with his toys but he needed to rest." Hannah had to give him medication for six weeks to give his knees time to heal. She said: "He's absolutely fine now – he's fully recovered and running around like a lunatic again!"

05/01/2024

When 11-year-old lurcher Jess was brought into Vets for Pets Leeds Birstall 24/7 Small Animal Hospital on Christmas Eve feeling very poorly with pyometra – a life-threatening uterus infection – the team knew they had to act fast; so vet Emily and nurses JD and Hannah headed straight in to perform emergency surgery on her in the early hours of Christmas morning.

The operation went so well that by lunchtime nurse Krishna was able to call her owner Beth to say she was well enough to come home to recuperate – and Beth made the hour-long drive from her home in Keighley so she could bring Jess home before the family sat down for their Christmas dinner. Beth said: "It was a stressful start to Christmas, as we were worried about Jess because of her age and because she's never had anything wrong with her before. We're so grateful for everything – it was so nice of them to come in on Christmas Day to operate on her, to look after her so well and to get her home on top form. The vets were fantastic from start to finish. Jess is recovering nicely – you can see the happiness is back in her!"

Krishna said: "Our night team always do an amazing job, and performing serious surgery like that at that time of night and on Christmas Day of all days is just brilliant. Jess did amazingly well to bounce back so quickly, and it was amazing being able to call her owners to say that she could come home to spend Christmas with them. It's the sort of call we all love to make, but doing it on Christmas Day was extra nice."

Six-foot-long boa constrictor Astrix was the centre of attention when he called in for a routine "top to tail" health check at Vets4Pets Penzance.

Astrix, who's four, is part of a menagerie of six snakes, bearded dragons and six dogs belonging to veterinary nurse Lowenna, who works at the practice, and her partner Mark. The team looked at Astrix's eyes and mouth and checked his breathing to rule out any respiratory infections and also checked his scales.

Lowenna said: "He got a clean bill of health, he was absolutely fine and everyone had a turn holding him. Asterix is quite reserved, a little bit shy usually. He did really well when he came in as everyone wanted to touch him and he was like 'okay I quite like the attention.' Astrix has got a lovely big set-up at home. He's quite a big boy, weighing in at nearly 10 kilos, so the vivarium is more than seven foot long. We have a reptile room and he has the run of it. He has a large bucket of water too if he ever wants to submerge himself."

02/01/2024

This brave girl is collie-cross Sherpa, who the team at Vets for Pets Livingston say was "impeccably calm" when she was rushed in for emergency injury after hurting her eye in a freak accident.

Sherpa's owner Caroline was taking Sherpa for a walk when Sherpa caught her eye on a stick as she went exploring a bush. She was quickly admitted into surgery where she received X-rays and, after a two-hour procedure by practice owner Dr Adam, aided by nurse Erin, the stick was removed. Adam said: "Sherpa was amazingly tolerant following an extremely random occurrence. It was astonishing." Sherpa didn't lose her sight and is now making a great recovery.

Caroline said: “We were suddenly thrown into the worst living nightmare, it was absolutely horrifying. It’s truly a miracle what Adam and the team achieved from the moment they answered our call for help. They gave us hope."

Lily 🐱

Come spend the day with us 🏥 as we show you a little bit of Lily’s experience for her spay procedure. Lily received her spay via the flank, which means the surgical site is on the left hand side of the abdomen. The surgical site is scrubbed twice: the first scrub using diliute hibiscrub to ensure the area is clean, then the second scrub using Chloraprep to ensure the area is then sterile. Neutering female cats 🐱 can have a variety of benefits including reducing risks of womb infections, cancer and unwanted pregnancies. If you would like for your female cat to be booked in for neutering then please call ☎️ the practice on 01236 368230 to arrange an appointment. #veterinarymedicine #veterinarysurgeon #veterinarynurse #neutering #catspay #suchagoodgirl #wehavethebestpatients #vetsforpets #cumbernauld

Milo 🐶

Come spend the day with us as we show you a little bit of Milo’s visit! Milo the Cavalier 🐶 recently spent the day with us for his castration. He was such a friendly wee dog and loved his day at the vets… the Buster Collar not so much! Castration can have a range of benefits for your pet. We also only recommend castration of a healthy and confident/friendly dog. Neutering male dogs who are nervous, fearful or anxious is not recommended for many reasons.

In our practice, we usually carry out a cat spay via the flank, which means the surgical site is on the left hand side of the abdomen. However, in some cases, owners choose to have the procedure carried out via midline, which means the surgical site is in the middle of the abdomen. Tali’s owner decided that midline was best for Tali. She was such a good girl throughout her stay with us 💖 Come watch her video showing her experience with us. Tali is doing really well at home 🏠 and is back to her usual self. #veterinarymedicine #veterinarysurgeon #veterinarynurse #surgery #ragdollcat #midlinespay #wehavethebestpatients

Liberty 🐶

Liberty has a condition called Hip Dysplasia and so her usual veterinary practice referred her to us for a Total Hip Replacement 🦴 This is her 6 weeks post-op and fully healed. How amazing is that?! We’re so glad we were able to help you Liberty and we hope that you enjoy your new lease of life pain free 💖 #veterinarymedicine #veterinarysurgeon #veterinarynurse #veterinaryorthopaedics #totalhipreplacement #shibainu #suchagoodgirl #wehavethebestpatients #referralpractice

Robyn’s visit to the vet 🐾

Robyn who is a 6 year old Labrador, visited us yesterday for a small lump removal and for her teeth to be cleaned 🦷 She was such a sweetheart and was very well behaved. Robyn wanted to share her experience with you all as she had a great experience and would like everyone to know it’s not that scary coming to the vet! Her lump has been sent off to the external lab 🧪 and we will update her family with the results. Thank you Robyn 🐾 #veterinarymedicine #veterinarysurgeon #veterinarynurse #labrador #suchasweetheart #lumpremoval #scaleandpolish #wehavethebestpatients

Alfie’s day out at the vets 🐾

Mr Alfie spent the day with us today for a much needed dental 🦷 He loves us so much that he wanted to share his visit with you. What a good boy! Alfie received fluids through his procedure and in recovery, which helped to support him. This an optional extra that we offer to all patients undergoing procedures. He also received dental X-rays. Did you know that we include dental X-rays in the costs of our dentals. So you can be assured that there are no hidden fees with us. Thank you Alfie 🐾 #veterinarymedicine #veterinarysurgeon #dentalwork #suchagoodboy #catlife

Little Chonk the hamster came in yesterday as he had sustained an injury to his eye. Vet Gemma assessed him and discussed with his mum that his eye was now blind and causing him pain, so the best plan was to remove the eye. So today Chonk came in for vet Claire to operate on and he came through his surgery like a champ, even showing off on his wheel before it was time for him to go home this afternoon! We wish wee Chonk a speedy recovery! 🥰

🦴 Luxating Patella 🦴

🦴 Luxating Patella 🦴 🌟Does anyone know what a Luxating Patella is? 🌟Or has anyone seen what a Luxating Patella looks like? Luxating Patella is a condition where the knee cap pops in and out or in some cases stays out of the joint. The condition mainly affects dogs 🐶 and is most common in smaller breeds. It is graded from 1 to 4 with grade 4 being the most severe. Anything from grade 2 upwards requires surgery to repair. Symptoms mainly include skipping and/or hopping when out for walks or exercising In the video, you can clearly see Shane’s knee cap popping in and out, where Shane has recently had this surgically repaired by Vet Brian. We are very fortunate here at Vets4Pets Cumbernauld 🐾, where we have Vet Brian 🩺 who has a certificate in orthopaedics, and so is able to perform orthopaedic procedures without the need to refer patients. #veterinarymedicine #veterinarysurgeon #veterinarynurse #orthopaedics #luxatingpatella #puttingyourpetsfirst #vets4pets
