🦠 World Antimicrobial Resistance Awareness Week 18th-24th🦠

Cystitis (inflammation of the bladder) is a common condition in cats.
Many people are surprised to learn that it’s usually not caused by a bacterial infection.
Instead, stress is often the main trigger.

That means antibiotics aren’t always the right treatment - and using them unnecessarily can contribute to antimicrobial resistance.

🦠World Antimicrobial Resistance Awareness Week 18th-24th 🦠
Antibiotics are powerful tools - but when used incorrectly, bacteria can become resistant, meaning infections become more challenging to treat.

Antibiotic resistant bacteria are an increasing problem worldwide, affecting both human and animal health.

Stay tuned for our upcoming posts -Throughout this week, we’ll share some important insights into antimicrobial resistance; what it is, why it matters, and how we can all help to protect the effectiveness of antibiotics. 💊

This gorgeous girl is Eliza, who recently visited the practice to receive her 2nd vaccination with a nurse!

Vaccinations help protect our pets from many diseases, including Leptosporosis (4 strains), Distemper, Hepatitis, and Parvovirus.

*Vaccination timelines do vary depending on previous history and age*

For a short time, puppies and kittens have maternal immunity provided by their mothers; however, this begins to decrease from 8-14 weeks, and vaccinating during this time helps them build up their own immunity.

Once the primary course of vaccinations has been completed, they only need a booster vaccination once a year.

Get in touch with one of our branches to book your pet information their vaccinations!

Today is World Diabetes Day. Just like us, our furry friends can develop diabetes - and the sooner it’s spotted, the better it can be managed.

Common signs of diabetes in pets include:
💧 Increased thirst
💛 Increased urination
⚖️ Weight loss
🐾 Appetite changes

If you’ve noticed any of these changes in your pet, it’s always worth getting them checked for peace of mind.

🐾 Why Neutering Your Cat Is So Important 🐾

It’s a big day for Bosco and Bruno! 💙 On Monday, they came into West Vake Branch for their castrations (neutering) — one of the most common and beneficial procedures we perform for cats.
Here’s why it’s such a positive step:

-Neutering reduces the risk of certain cancers and infections.

-It helps reduce spraying, roaming, and fighting — meaning fewer cat clashes and less stress at home!

-One unneutered male can father hundreds of kittens in his lifetime. Neutering helps control the stray cat population and keeps more cats safe and cared for.

Bosco and Bruno's surgery was quick and smooth — they are now resting comfortably at home with their humans.
Most cats bounce back very quickly after the procedure! 🐈‍⬛

If your male cat hasn’t been neutered yet, talk to us about the best time to schedule it.💙
📞 Call us to book your cat’s appointment today!

The increase in rain during autumn can cause an influx of wild mushrooms, as they thrive in damp climates.

You may come across them on walks, or they may appear in your garden. It can be very difficult to determine whether a particular mushroom is safe to eat, as many can look very similar but have very different toxicity levels.

If you suspect your pet has ingested wild mushrooms, speak to a vet as soon as possible. Also, try and either take a sample or get a photo of the type of mushroom you think your pet may have ingested, as it may help the vet to identify the type of toxin and effectively treat it.

Meet Nugget! This lovely little boy came to the practice to have a check-up on his weight and receive flea and worming. This is common in young animals like Nugget because they continue to gain weight until they are 9-12 months old.

Worming, especially in young puppies and kittens, is very important as a high worm burden leads to:
🐛Poor growth and weight loss
🐜Diarrhea or vomiting
🐛A bloated or “pot-bellied” belly
🐜Dull coat and low energy
🐛In severe cases, worms can even be fatal in very young animals.

To look into receiving flea and worm treatment for your animal, contact one of our practices or take a look at The Healthy Pet Club!
