!IMPORTANT NOTICE!

Following some phone calls from concerned clients this morning, we have done some investigation and have found that there have been confirmed cases of Canine Parvovirus in the Fife area. We have heard unsubstantiated reports that these originate in the Leven and/ or Kirkcaldy areas but cannot confirm this for certain.
Canine Parvovirus is usually present in the environment and is one of the diseases we routinely vaccinate against for this reason.

While we have not seen any positive cases, we would urge our clients to ensure that their dogs are up to date with all routine vaccinations, especially younger dogs, puppies in particular, and older dogs with other health issues that may affect their immune system.

The main clinical signs of Parvovirus are lack of energy, decreased appetite, nausea, accompanied by vomiting and foul-smelling diarrhoea.

If you are concerned that your pet may have Parvovirus please contact the surgery on 01592 753231 (option 3) for an appointment. Please do not bring your pet into the surgery without an appointment as Parvovirus is highly contagious. Let us know that you are at the surgery, and we will give you further instructions.

*IMPORTANT UPDTE REGRDING CAT'S PROTECTION NEUTERING SCHEME*

We have received an update from Cat's Protection that the £10 neutering scheme will be paused until at least the end of July 2024.
We still do not have a date for the scheme restarting but should get another update from Cat's Protection in July.
We have no vouchers left in practice so we cannot carry out any neutering on the scheme. Other participating practices may still have vouchers but clients will need to contact those practices directly.

You can use the map below to find a vet near you who is part of our neutering scheme. You are able to get your cat neutered and microchipped at one of our participating vets for £10 if you meet any of the following criteria:

*IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING CAT'S PROTECTION NEUTERING SCHEME*

We were disappointed to receive communication from Cat's Protection yesterday afternoon informing us that unfortunately they have had to pause the £10 neutering scheme.
We are hoping that they will relaunch the scheme and have been told we will be updated at the end of April 2024.
Unfortunately this means that we will be unable to neuter any more cats under the scheme.
If you have your cat/ cats booked in either for neutering operations or for pre-neuter checks we will be in contact by telephone in the coming days.

We understand that this will cause inconvenience but the situation is out of our hands. Please be kind when speaking with our staff.

You are able to get your cat neutered and microchipped at one of our participating vets for £10 if you meet any of the following criteria:

Yesterday evening we had a young adult male, domestic shorthaired, white and black cat brought to us that had unfortunately been involved in a road traffic collision.
He was hit on Falcon Drive in Glenrothes. There was no microchip or collar.
Sadly, due to the extent of his injuries, we had to take the difficult decision to put him to sleep.
If you think he may belong to you please call the practice on 01592 753231 (option 3) during opening hours.

The Scottish government have announced some details of the new safeguards that will be brought into place for owners of XL Bully type dogs.
From 23rd February 2024 it will remain legal to own an XL Bully dog but owners must ensure their dogs are muzzled and on a lead when in a public place. Selling, gifting or exchanging XL Bully dogs will also be prohibited.
Owners who wish to keep their XL Bully type dogs after 31st July 2024 will need to register for an exemption certificate before this date. Details of how to register for this are not yet available.

In line with these safeguards from 23rd February we will require that all XL Bully Type dogs are muzzled and on an appropriate collar/ harness and lead when in the practice.

Details of how to muzzle train any dog can be found at on both the dogs trust website and the Association of pet behaviour counsellors (APBC) website.

Owners urged to prepare for changes.
