Remembrance Day:

The 11th November is a day dedicated to honoring military personnel who lost their lives in service to their country. The date commemorates the armistice signed at the end of World War I on November 11, 1918.

Wearing a poppy is a show of support for the service and sacrifice of our Armed Forces, veterans and their families. It represents all those who lost their lives on active service, from the beginning of the First World War right up to present day.

finches if they are fully housed in a dwelling (your home or another indoor
structure) and with no access to the open air

Bumble sat here so calm and very well behaved having a gentle clean. He had laid in oil, underneath a car, and thankfully his family rushed him straight to us for treatment.
The nursing team took their time with him and managed to clear all the oil from him body, making him all fresh and super fluffy again.

During the months of October and November, if you are registered with us at Coopers, we are offering a free nurse consultation to help advise on how to keep your pets calm and relaxed throughout firework season.
If you know they suffer with anxiety, or you just want to be prepared, call us at the practice to book your appointment. 01424 751595
Fireworks can be very scary for our pets, and equally distressing for the owners. Many pets will be afraid, but can all react differently to the fear. 💚

Dora spent today with us for a small procedure. Cuddling her favourite toy, wearing a buster collar, she posed for pictures, and was happy for the nurses to sit and give her a check over before we handed her back to her owners. 💚
