β Could you be Tassie and Kiko's forever family? β
Lothian Cat Rescue is appealing for a home for Siamese brothers Tassie and Kiko.
Sadly, Tassie and Kiko have been back with LCR a couple of times. After arriving in November 2022 with their Mother, their Mum was quickly rehomed but unfortunately it has been a bit harder for bonded pair Tassie and Kiko. They have been rehomed twice now but these homes have not worked out. They are back at LCR, seeking comfort in each other.
Although they have been stressed previously, they are now much improved and are showing their playful sides again. LCR feel they are ready to be rehomed - and hopefully for the final time.
If you are an adult only, no other pet household, and think you can help give these boys a life they deserve, then please contact LCR for further information π
Lothian Cat Rescue is a NO-KILL shelter and registered charity which helps abandoned, ill-treated and unwanted cats & kittens.We successfully rehome around 1,000 cats and kittens each year and this is our main priority.Looking to rehome a cat?

ππNEW - NURSE CONSULTATIONS AT THE CAT CLINIC ππ
Did you know that as well as providing skilled, supportive care for patients our Registered Veterinary Nurses (RVNs) are also qualified to perform full physical exams, undertake minor surgery, monitor anaesthesia, and administer medical treatment and diagnostic tests under veterinary supervision? πΈ
With this huge skill set in mind, we have decided to take our first steps into Nurse Consultations in the Cat Clinic! ππ RVN Sam and Luci are so excited to welcome you!
Initially these appointments will cover:
- 2nd vaccinations
- Nail trims
- Repeat Solensia injections
- Blood pressure monitoring
- Flea and worm treatment administration
- Basic weight checks and nutrition advice
During itβs early phase, these consultations will run only on a Monday afternoon with hopes to increase the availability of these appointments soon.
πExtra bits to be made aware ofπ:
- Our Nurse Consultations offer invaluable time with caring and experienced nursing team and as such are chargeable.
- Bear in mind that our RVNs are not allowed to diagnose medical conditions so if you have health concerns about your cat, an appointment with one of our vets is more appropriate.
Please everyone have a look out for Laz and get him home! He's a lovely older boy and his family are so worried about him π
It is Veterinary Receptionist week!πΊ

A big congratulations to Rebekah for completing the VMG's Certificate in Leadership and Management!
Well done! ππΌππ
We recently caught up with Rebekah Sutherland, Admin Manager from The Veterinary Cat Clinic to congratulate her on achieving the ILM Level 5 Certificate in Veterinary Leadership and Management.
The certificate comprises of two compulsory modules (understanding yourself as a leader and understanding your organisation) with two optional modules.
We asked Rebekah how she decided which modules to choose.. "In collaboration with the practice owner, we carefully selected modules to enhance both my development and the practice's capabilities. The Finance module was chosen for its direct relevance to my recently expanded responsibilities. Additionally, the Mentoring and Coaching module was included to equip me with the necessary skills to navigate the human aspects of my new role, including HR considerations."
From project management to recruitment and development we are proud of the modules available to our students.
Rumour has it that Rebekah intends to continue her studies towards achieving the Diploma. But first, a well earned rest!
So for now its a very well done and a see you soon!
Please could everyone have look out for George and help get him homeπ
It is National Kidney Day!
We are celebrating National Kidney Day for our beloved furry felines! π
Did you know that maintaining kidney health is crucial for our cats' overall well-being? Approximately 1 in 3 cats will develop CKD during their lifetime.
There are many prescription diets designed to help protect vital kidney function and that are clinically proven to improve your cat's quality of life. Please book an appointment with our vets if you are concerned over your cat's kidney health.
Let's keep those purrs going strong!
