Let’s give our cats a round of ap-paws as we celebrate them today on the 8th of August! Share your pictures below for all to enjoy!
😻
☀️SUMMER TIPS☀️
- walk either first thing in the morning or last thing at night. Remember; if it’s too hot on the concrete when resting the back of your hand for 5 seconds, it’s far too hot for paws!
- Ensure your pets are having regular grooms including de-sheds for those particularly hairy pups
- Offer fresh cool bowls of water, both indoor and outdoor but kept in the shade
- Create shaded areas, particularly when out and about
- Offer fans, cooling mats and cooling bandanas. Keep areas as ventilated as possible but remember to buckle your pets in when travelling.
- Offer cool treats. Homemade and shop bought are both great options just make sure these are suitable for pet consumption
Beautiful Louise was the purrfect patient when coming in for her acupuncture appointments. 😻 If your pet is struggling with pain please feel free to talk to us about how we could help

Celebrating World Vet Day on Saturday 27th of April.
We want to make a special post to thank our entire vet team here at The Natural Vet for all that you do in dedicating your lives to the care of pets. We are so privileged to have such a great team overall here with us.
The job of a veterinarian is extremely difficult a

The Natural Vet veterinary team work so hard to ensure your pets get the right treatment for them and we cannot thank them enough. Thank you Adele, Caitlin, Clara, Sarah and Rebecca

💚CMA INVESTIGATION 💚
As many of you may be aware the CMA (Competition and Markets Authority) have released an interim report into the veterinary industry and have raised 5 key concerns.
We welcome the investigation into competition and price setting, we have seen a large increase in referral centre and out of hours pricing which is worrying. However please remember that these prices are not set by the vets, nurses and staff you will encounter when you visit a vets. The staff on the frontline of corporates are the same as in the independents, they trained for this job because they love animals, their vocation in life is to help them and alleviate suffering. They will still turn up for work and tolerate the vet bashing in the media because they work to protect animal welfare every day so please be kind and empathetic to your vets as they won’t have any say or influence over pricing and protocols.
Our hope is the CMA investigation will benefit us all but in the interim please be kind and communicate any worries you have to your vets, they will be more than happy to help! 🍃🍃

We reckon they’ll “run” out the shop pretty fast 🦖
🟢 HARNESS SUPPORT 🟢 Harnesses can be a brilliant way of keeping dogs safe from injury to the neck and trachea, provide comfort for your dog when on walks or travelling and a tool for training too. These are great for stopping your dog from slipping out of a collar. However, incorrect placement of a harness or the wrong style of harness can be damaging to your dog’s joints and bones. Certain styles of harnesses can press against shoulders and cause significant long term damage on your dogs, which is painful and can lead to multiple surgeries. Some can even enable your dog to slip out of them. When choosing a harness please opt for a Y shapes harness as this will provide the best support around the neck, shoulders and joints; just like the one our doggy-model Hank! 🐾
