Is your cat microchipped?

As of the 10th June 2024, it is now a legal requirement for all cats (even indoor only!!) over the age of 20 weeks to be microchipped in the UK. Owners can face fines if their cats are found to not be chipped.

To help support owners, we are waiving our nurse consult fee (£15) and offering FREE nurse appointments to fit microchips. Just pay for the chip, £21!

Contact us now to get your cats booked in!

We're excited to welcome our newest member of Graylands team - Catherine Artso RVN! 🐾
Here's few words from Catherine:
'I qualified in 2011 and have worked in mixed practice and referral. I have always felt it’s my responsibility to advocate for my patients, no matter how great or small. I take pride in treating each of them with the same care and attention I would my own pets. Over my career I have found that it just needs us as caregivers to take the time to understand patients’ needs, which is why I am so excited to join the Graylands team where this is the core ethos.
Outside of work I spend time, baking, gardening, walking my dogs and running around after my young son!' 🐈

As of the 10th June 2024, it is a legal requirement for all cats (even indoor only!!) to be microchipped in the UK. This law has taken a while to get passed, but we are SO happy it has!

Microchips are a small rice grain size implant, which is inserted just below the skin. This stays in place life long, and does not emit any kind of radiation - they are simply a code which can then be traced to you on a national database!

This week, we had the pleasure of working with Dr. Elise Robertson, a world-class specialist and lecturer in feline medicine and endoscopy! Dr. Elise is our consulting specialist and brings her endoscopic skills, along with a lot of exciting machines and equipment, to Graylands whenever we need her advanced services. 😸

Together with Dr. Elise, we're able to offer minimally invasive procedures, such as:

🐾 Diagnostic procedures: endoscopic examination and biopsies for the stomach, gut, nasal cavity, lower respiratory tract, ears and abdominal organs.

🐾 Interventional and surgical procedures: minimally invasive bladder stones removal, treatment of nasal fungal infections, ear surgery... and much more.

We are committed to providing the best possible care for your cat and will always discuss and explain all available options, helping you choose what's best for your cat. 🐾🐈

May has been a busy Hypertension awareness month, but we aren’t stopping there! If you contact us TODAY (MAY 31st), you can still book a FREE blood pressure check for the following weeks! Don’t hesitate, call today!

They could be providing travel advice to anxious owners, ensuring the clinic has a cat friendly waiting area, ensuring tasty snacks are available in the examination room or spending time with their hospitalised patients to make sure they eat.

Veterinary nurses are true cat welfare champions - they are innovative, continue to learn and are curious just like the cats they care for!

Did you know... 80% of cats diagnosed with hypertension are already suffering from other diseases such as hyperthyroidism and kidney disease.

High blood pressure can put additional stress on these organs which can severely affect your cat’s health and wellbeing.

All cats over 7 years old with these conditions should have regular blood pressure checks – call us today to book in your FREE blood pressure check before the end of May!

🌟 **Community Highlight** 🌟

Our amazing Clinical Director and Nurse, Hazel, had the pleasure of participating in Holbrook Primary School’s Science Week this morning! She engaged with two reception classes and two Year 1 classes, bringing along a variety of fun equipment for the children to explore.

The kids had a fantastic time dressing up as mini veterinary surgeons and nurses, learning about veterinary equipment and cats in a hands-on and exciting way. A special shoutout to Henrietta, our beloved toy cat, who was the perfect patient for the young vets and nurses in training!

We love being part of such wonderful community events and inspiring the next generation. Thank you, Holbrook Primary, for having us!

What a day! A visit from TF Sport where all the children got to meet the team and see the amazing sports car up close! Plus Graylands Cat Clinic came to talk to our younger children, all a part of our amazing science week.
