Autumn is on its way!
The season of mists and mellow fruitfulness... and spending 10 minutes trying to find that p**p in a drift of fallen leaves. 🍂 �

Autumn Pet Toxins: Horse Chestnuts (conkers)🍁
The toxic ingredient in conkers is also found in the leaves and bark of the tree, so keep an eye out to make sure your pet doesn't eat these either.
Conkers are also a choking hazard, and can potentially cause bowel obstructions if swallowed whole, which may require emergency surgery.
Signs to look for in your pet include vomiting and diarrhoea, excessive drooling,
excessive thirst or reduced appetite.
In severe cases, ingestion can cause muscle tremors or seizures.

Just like us if we injure ourselves during exercise or through wear and tear as we age, our pets can also end up with discomfort or pain in their limbs, causing lameness.
This may be a breed disposition like hip dysplasia in dogs, your cat jumping from a fence at an odd angle and injuring their leg or perhaps an aging pet showing the first signs of osteoarthritis.
If you think your pet is struggling with movement or doesn’t seem themselves, please give us a call today to book an appointment

Student Veterinary Nurses have to take many practical examinations in order to qualify as Registered Veterinary Nurses.
As the OSCE practical examinations are fast approaching some of our students, we have set up mock examinations to allow our students to practice each individual task.
The practical exams include communication tasks, laboratory work, surgical nursing, medical nursing, radiography and anaesthesia tasks.

Good Luck to our students sitting their practical examinations this winter!⭐️

Cruciate disease refers to partial or complete rupture of the cranial cruciate ligament.

The primary symptom of cruciate rupture is limping on the affected hind leg. In most patients, this limp appears suddenly, and is such that the leg is not used at all

As cruciate disease is usually a degenerative process, sometimes the ligament
becomes gradually weaker, which may be seen as an intermittent limp or stiffness.

Tizer 🐾

Tizer recently underwent a splenectomy (spleen removal surgery) here at West Mount Vets.

Tizer came into the practice as he was pale, lethargic, had vomited and some loose stool, after some tests we discovered his spleen was irregular and needed to be removed to protect his health.

Thanks to our skilled surgical team and lots of TLC, Tizer’s procedure went smoothly, and he’s now recovering like a champ! 💪🐶

The spleen plays a role in filtering blood and fighting infection, but dogs can live happy, healthy lives without it.

We’re so proud of Tizer and grateful to his family for trusting us with his care. 💙

If your pet ever seems off or unwell, don’t hesitate to reach out.
Early detection can make all the difference.

Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day is observed annually on August 28th.

It's a heartfelt day dedicated to honouring and remembering beloved pets who have passed away. For the pet owners among us, it offers a special moment to reflect on the unconditional love, joy and companionship our furry friends brought into our lives.

While the day may stir feelings of sadness, its true purpose is to celebrate the lives of these cherished animals: reminiscing the happy memories, silly habits and unique bonds that made them a part of the family.

Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day encourages us to keep their spirit alive in our hearts forever. 🌈❤

Why do cats love cardboard boxes?
Because they’re cosy, enclosed and just the right size to feel safe and warm - the perfect feline hideaway. They’re also a great place to pounce, play and scratch.

So why do we keep buying expensive fancy toys and beds, expecting a different reaction...? 😹

Remember, if your cat is ever a little less playful than usual, or hiding more, these small changes can say a lot about their health.

Contact us if something’s amiss so we
can help keep them happy and healthy.
