Winter Weather ❄️🐾
This cold spell is set to stay so we’ve gathered our clinical teams top tips on keeping your pets safe during the cold weather ⛄️
Keep your cat indoors, especially overnight and try to keep them away from anti-freeze (ethylene glycol) - antifreeze tastes extremely sweet to cats but can sadly cause acute kidney injury which can be fatal! Try not to leave any lying around in garages or sheds where your cats might go to explore 🐈
Clean off your dogs paws and tummies after all walks to prevent salt grit from the road irritating their skin and mouth 🦮
Consider putting a coat or jumper on your dog when out on walks in this cold weather - especially small dogs, puppies, senior dogs or breeds who feel the cold a lot more such as greyhounds 🐕🦺
Trim the fur around your dogs toes to prevent ice balls forming - these can form between the pads and toes of the paw and are really painful 🧊
Ensure your rabbits and guinea pigs are kept in the warm. If your rabbits and guinea pigs live outdoors ensure their hutches are well insulated, with lovely thick beds, and give them a heat source such as a microwaveable “snuggle safe” to keep them warm. Be sure to also check their water to ensure it hasn’t frozen 🐰
And finally please take care when visiting the practice as our car park can become very slippery! ⚠️
