Sadly, there is not a National Health Service for our pets. Unexpected veterinary costs can be a concern for a lot of people in the current economic environment. Having a pet
insurance policy in place can help take away any potential anxiety or financial limitations of treatment options.

Rabbit Awareness Week 24 - 28 June
Rabbits are social creatures and should be kept in pairs or
larger groups. Introducing adult rabbits can lead to
potentially lethal fighting; don't be tempted to get one rabbit
and add a friend later. Once two or more rabbits are bonded,
they should remain together, including for vet trips. It is no
longer recommended to keep rabbits and guinea pigs
together as it is very difficult to meet both animals’ needs.

Learn the fundamentals of caring for rabbits, from food to environment to health checks, to make sure your furry friend is happy and healthy.

Dogs and hot cars

On a warm day, the temperature inside a parked car can rise
dangerously fast 🌡🚗

‘Not long’ is too long. If you can’t take them with you when you leave the car - leave them safely at home.

Heatstroke is a veterinary emergency. Symptoms include:
Heavy panting
Excessive salivation
Rapid heart rate
Bright red gums and tongue
Weakness, confusion or collapse

If you see a dog in distress in a hot car, first call 999, then seek veterinary advice urgently

Cats On Zoom Meetings

Cats are known to be mischief-makers at the best of times, but have you ever experienced an encounter during a Zoom call where your feline friend decided to make a surprise appearance?

Whether it's casually strolling across the keyboard, blocking the camera with their tail, or loudly meowing for attention, cats have a knack for stealing the spotlight just when you need to appear most professional.

We’d love to hear your funniest cat Zoom moments - share your stories with us in the comments!

Just like us if we injure ourselves during exercise or through wear and tear as we age, our pets can also end up with discomfort or pain in their limbs, causing lameness. This may be a breed disposition like hip dysplasia in dogs, your cat jumping from a fence at an odd angle and injuring their leg or perhaps an aging pet showing the first signs of
osteoarthritis.
If you think your pet is struggling with movement or doesn’t seem themselves, please give us a call today to book an appointment on 01299 271967, or book online at https://www.vetcollection.co.uk/west-midlands/severn-edge-vets-cleobury-mortimer/.

With summer holidays approaching, many of us will be out having fun in the sun with our canine companions. Parks, footpaths and beaches are wonderful places to enjoy the outdoors with our dogs - but they’re also shared spaces, and a little consideration goes a long way.

🏖 Plan your adventures ahead. If you're heading to an attraction or beauty spot, check first whether dogs are welcome. On warmer days, take trips early or late in the day and factor in breaks to seek shade and water.

🐕 Not every dog (or human) is comfortable being approached or wants to
say hi. Keep your pooch under close control or on a lead, ask before letting them approach, and give others space where needed.

💩 Pick up their p**p and bin the bag. No exceptions!

Thank you for helping to make summer adventures pleasant for everyone
