Extension to Avian Influenza Prevention Zone
From midday on 18th January (Northern Ireland) and 25th January (England and Scotland), it became a legal requirement for all bird keepers to follow strict biosecurity measures to help protect their flocks from the threat of avian flu. Further details can be found here (England), here (Scotland), and here (Northern Ireland). These restrictions do not currently affect Wales; up to date information can be found here (Wales) Avian Influenza Prevention Zone (AIPZ) measures apply to all bird keepers whether they have pet birds, commercial flocks or just a few birds in a backyard flock and are essential to protecting flocks from avian influenza.

Antifreeze and cats
Anti-freeze contains a chemical called Ethylene Glycol, which has a sweet taste and smell that can attract cats— and dogs too. If they find it, they might try to lick or eat it, so always ensure the lid is tightly closed and store it somewhere completely out of your pet’s reach. Signs of anti-freeze poisoning in cats include vomiting, tiredness, unsteadiness, seizures and difficulty breathing. Once consumed, Ethylene Glycol turns into calcium oxalate crystals, which can severely damage the kidneys and often prove fatal. If you think your cat may have ingested antifreeze, contact your vet immediately - it’s an emergency.

What else could pet insurance cover?
Many owners think that taking out pet insurance is just about covering the cost of veterinary care. While that is important, a good policy will also cover you for some of the other unexpected costs of being a pet owner. Remember not all pet insurance is the same so it is a good idea to check the cover provided and ask if you will be paying more for claiming.

We’ve had a female German Shepherd brought to us this afternoon and unfortunately the microchip details are not up to date. She’s seemingly well, but I’m sure will be missing her family. If anyone is missing their lovely girl or know someone who is please contact the practice, or our out of hours provider, MiNight Vet, Ipswich on 01394 389199. We will need to see proof of ownership

The pet insurance market can be very overwhelming but it can be made easier by deciding the type of policy that would suit you best to narrow your search. Depending on the age of your pet and level of cover you would like to protect them with, you can then start considering the different polices for that type of insurance. Remember not all pet insurance is the same so it is a good idea to check the cover provided and ask if you will be paying more for claiming.

Many conditions we see that present as an acute problem are actually a sign of something underlying. The most common example is an ear infection due to underlying allergic skin disease. Although we can treat the ear infection, if we don’t address the skin disease the ear will continue developing infections and, eventually, develop chronic problems. The active infection is the priority and diagnosing and managing this should be the focus of the initial consultation, however at the follow-up appointment the vet will have more time to discuss other signs of skin disease and suggest further investigations or long-term management options to help control this and reduce the likelihood of recurrent infections. This is the case for many other problems that are likely to recur or persist, such as urinary tract disease (particularly in cats), lameness, diarrhoea, or pancreatitis, to name a few.

Having your teeth brushed is a strange experience, and many pets will panic if it is not introduced slowly and gently. It may take a month or two to reach a point of
“proper brushing” – this is normal and nothing to worry about. Find out how to start brushing your pet’s teeth here:

Hearing dog Albert has been on an adventure with his deaf partner Sarah, as they visited York city centre. Albert took in all the sights, including the spectacular York Minster, and did so well in a busy environment with lots of people. Not only that, but Albert also travelled on two forms of public transport and proved to be the perfect passenger on both a train and a river cruise.
Amazing job as always, Albert!

This is particularly important when antibiotics are being used. We should always give antibiotics for the shortest length of time required to achieve a cure, however if a longer course is required this should be continuous for them to be effective and create the least antimicrobial resistance. Finishing a short course of antibiotics, seeing that symptoms recur, then restarting treatment is much less effective. This will usually require a longer total course of treatment (as bacteria will have multiplied again while treatment was not being given) and prove more expensive. Sometimes a condition has improved but not resolved at the time of a recheck. Your vet will know what degree of improvement is expected in a particular timeframe and be able to decide whether your pet simply needs more time, or whether treatment plans need changing. If required, medication doses may be changed or additional medications can be prescribed. The earlier it is identified that a first-line treatment is insufficient for an individual case, the sooner we can intervene to achieve a cure in a timely and economic fashion.

Meet Karen, one of Hearing Dogs’ amazing volunteer dog trainers. We asked Karen about why she volunteers: “My lovely mum has been deaf since childhood and has had multiple operations on her ears over the years and now has a BAHA hearing aid. When she removes this at night, she hears nothing.”
“She doesn't have a hearing dog herself but it's because of her I got involved with this amazing charity and became a volunteer. I've witnessed her struggles and the lack of understanding from people about her deafness and I wanted to do something to help improve a deaf person's life.”
Karen has been volunteering for ten years and it’s been Poodles all the way. Before current trainee Merlin, there were Jessie, Peach, Sonny, and Ziggy. Ahead of Merlin's final assessment, Karen has said:
“I absolutely adore him and will miss Merlin so much as he makes me laugh everyday. But I feel so excited that someone out there is going to be told about him very soon. Whoever gets him will have an extremely loyal friend who will look after and adore them.”

While it's a frequent issue, bad breath in pets should not be considered normal. Often, it's a sign of underlying health problems that need attention. If you're used to your pet cuddling close to your face, you'll likely notice quickly if their breath becomes unpleasant!

Blue Monday typically falls on the third Monday of January and is often
considered the “saddest day of the year”. Fortunately, we all know that our pets are great at cheering us up, and here’s how they can help raise your spirits this January:-

Studies show that interacting with pets—like stroking their fur or playing—
releases oxytocin (the "feel-good" hormone) and lowers cortisol levels (the
stress hormone).

Walking a dog or playing with a cat keeps you active, which boosts
endorphins and helps combat sadness or depression.

Pets are very intuitive, meaning they can sense when you are feeling down.
Their comforting presence alone can be enough to soothe any feelings of
stress, anxiety or sadness.

Pip and Twiglet meeting for the first time. Lots of puppy fun for us today. It’s so lovely to able to bring our fur babies to work 🐾🐾❤️

Working together on the safe disposal of your pets’ unused antibiotics Did you know that antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a world-wide health threat, as bacteria are becoming resistant to many antibiotics that we use in human and veterinary medicine?

This absolutely gorgeous little chap was bought in by a cat. He has been given course of antibiotics and is now feeling much better. He will be released back into the wild very soon.

Hoping our vet Hannah had a birthday as lovely as she is 💕

We had a very handsome and rather dazed mallard bought in on Tuesday. He spent the night with us and had a bit of rest and recuperation. He was released in our receptionists garden last night.

This is Gypsy. She is very excited because she has just been given a new coat for winter by Vets Now. This time of year, dog coats are one of the most in demand items that the team hand out to homeless pet owners. If you would like to purchase a dog coat for one of their patients, please look on the Amazon Wish list for your nearest city on https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/registry/wishlist/244PRA80HDFVJ

Flynn and Luna loving their treats!

Say hello to Smokey! He was in a bit of an accident that left him with a dislocated hip and tail pull injury (X-rays in comments). Despite relocating his hip, it didn’t stay in place so it was decided that it was in his best interests to amputate his leg and tail. He was straight up after his surgery and came back to see us a few day later and is doing brilliantly adjusting to his new way of walking!

Pickle and Billie
Pickle and Billie

We had a lovely visit from Pickle today who came in to check her weight so she could collect her HPC flea and wormers. She was a little bit nervous, so brought in her best friend Billie for a bit of moral support. With that and the help of a few treats she soon made herself at home!

This cheeky chappy, Buster, paid us a visit a few weeks ago to be neutered. He wasn't too keen on the dreaded buster collar, but that didn't stop his tail wagging!
