Did you know that only 20% of ginger cats are female? This is because the gene for the ginger colour is on the X chromosome. Females have two X chromosomes and so need two copies of this gene to become ginger, whereas males need only one. This means there are roughly three males to one female ginger cat! 🤯

These two beautiful ladies, Cinnamon and Mango, stayed with us for their spay procedure and were microchipped at the same time.

We usually advise to neuter cats from 4 months of age/over 2kgs so as to prevent unwanted litters of kittens (of which there are so many in today's cat shelters 😕).

Speedy recovery Cinnamon and Mango and we look forward to seeing you both for your post-op check ups 💜

Beautiful Serena came to Hadrian Vets for her dental procedure. On taking dental x-rays we found that she had many resorptive lesions.

This is a common dental condition seen in cats and affects over half of all cats over the age of 3 years old. It is characterised by the resorption of the tooth and can only truly be diagnosed through the use of dental x-rays, although sometimes subtle signs can be seen on physical examination. Dental x-rays help to determine the treatment required for the affected teeth.

The cause of resorptive lesions is still unknown which is why it is important that cat owners monitor their pets and attend annual check-ups.

On extracting these affected teeth, Serena now has a lovely set of pearly whites 💚🦷

This gorgeous pupster came in to see the team today, she is on our pet health plan which includes her vaccinations and anti parasite treatments among many other benefits.
Can anyone guess what breed she is?

Happy National Kitten Day! 😸

Are you thinking about getting a kitten? There are many things you need to consider before doing so such as, do you have the time and commitment this bundle of fluff will need?

Here is a handy download from the ISFM (International Society of Feline Medicine) full of important questions to ask yourself before you acquire your kitten:https://icatcare.org/app/uploads/2019/09/The-Kitten-Checklist.pdf

As always, Hadrian Vets are happy to advise you and provide your new feline friend with veterinary care throughout their life 😽

Summer brings sunny days and outdoor adventures for our feline friends! 🌞🐱 While your cat enjoys lounging in the garden, it's essential to provide a safe and enjoyable environment. Here are some tips:

🐱 Check for Shade: Ensure your garden has shaded areas where your cat can retreat from the sun's heat. Consider planting trees or installing umbrellas or awnings to create cool spots.

🐱 Safe Plants: Be mindful of the plants in your garden, as some can be toxic to cats if ingested.

🐱 Water Source: Place a shallow water bowl or fountain in the garden to keep your cat hydrated during outdoor excursions.

🐱 Fence Security: If your garden is enclosed by a fence, regularly inspect it for any gaps or loose areas where your cat could escape. Ensure the fence is cat-proof to prevent accidental escapes.

🐱 Supervised Play: While your cat may enjoy exploring the garden independently, always supervise outdoor time to ensure their safety. Keep an eye out for potential hazards and intervene if necessary.

With these tips, you can create a cat-friendly garden where your furry friend can enjoy the summer sunshine safely! 🌿😺

Fingers crossed we are back online soon 🤞🏻🤞🏻

On September 8th, our vet Paulina will be running the Great North Run for the third time!

Paulina hopes to raise at least £500 for the Multiple Sclerosis Society; a charity which supports those affected by MS and conducts further research into the condition.

If you feel you could donate towards this fundraiser, you can do so by clicking this link:

https://url.uk.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/fs3zCV5JMs0jWM8cGZ32O?domain=justgiving.com

Donating even as little as £5 could pay for laboratory essentials such as Petri dishes, latex gloves and microscope slides. It seems small, but these things are essential to the scientists’ work in stopping MS.

Thankyou!

Everyone loves a walk in the Summer sunshine, but remember, our furry friends can quickly overheat and heatstroke can be fatal.

Walking your dog during cooler times of the day such as early mornings and late evenings can help keep them safe.

Providing plenty of water breaks and a rest in the shade will also help keep them cool. 💧☀️

Despite having quite an extensive dental procedure with a number of large teeth needing extracted, Enzo happily tucked into his dinner in recovery. This is because at Hadrian vets we use local nerve blocks as an effective form of pain relief for all of our dental procedures. Enzo's teeth showed evidence of abrasion, where the enamel of the tooth is worn down from chewing on hard objects such as stones or even tennis balls. Enzo has recently been signed off by the nursing team with a new shiny smile! 💚🦷

🚨 Scam Alert 🚨

We want to alert our clients about a scam targeting pet owners. Scammers are posing as veterinary practices and calling owners of missing pets, claiming the pet is injured and needs urgent treatment. They ask for payment over the phone.

❗ Important:

- Do not give your details to anyone who calls you.
- Tell them you will call back.
- Look up the veterinary practice number online and call directly.
- Stay vigilant and protect your information.

If in doubt, always contact us directly on 01434 602 703 to verify.

Thank you! 🐾

Lovely little lady, Coco, came to Hadrians following a dental referral consultation with vet, Paulina. Upon examination, periodontal disease was noted and then further confirmed with a complete dental assessment under anaesthetic. As you can see on the x-rays, circled are the areas of main concern - bone loss around the teeth - which means the teeth required extraction. Periodontal disease is a painful condition and almost 90% of dogs over the age of two are affected by this. Coco is doing very well without these teeth 🦷💚

Happy update!
This beautiful boy has been reunited with his owner after being missing for 3 months. What a journey from Stanley to Haydon Bridge!

His twin brother is sadly still missing. He looks exactly the same. If you see a completely black male neutered cat please get him to your nearest vets practice to be scanned for a microchip. He is much missed by his loving owner and we would love to be able to reunite them all.

Neutered male cat found west end of Hexham. Is microchipped to an address in the West Kyo area of Stanley however the details are not up to date so we cannot contact the registered owner. If you know of anyone missing a young male cat from that area please contact the practice on 01434 602703.
Please share this post so we can get this lovely boy back to his home.

POLITE NOTICE

Please allow extra time to arrive for your appointment at the practice.
The roadworks in Hexham are causing considerable traffic jams which is meaning many of our clients are arriving late for their appointments.
While we do understand this is no ones' fault, it does have a massive knock-on effect to all our other appointments booked that day and means we run late for all other clients.
Late arrivals of 5 minutes or more over the booked time will be asked to wait for the next available consultation slot or rebooked for another time.
We are sorry to have to do this however we have seen a considerable increase in late arrivals over the last few weeks and it ultimately means we cannot offer our patients the full service they deserve.

Thank you for your understanding in this matter.

In this video you can see how far the dental probe enters into the pulp cavity of the fractured tooth. In a healthy tooth, the probe would not enter into the tooth at all.
