Today is world Lymphoma awareness day and we want to highlight the importance of understanding and combating lymphoma in our beloved pets. Did you know lymphoma can affect both cats and dogs at any age? This is Sooty, who belonged to our office administrator Lindzi, her beloved cat was sadly lost to Lymphoma earlier this year. Lindzi wanted to highlight the importance of seeking veterinary attention if you notice anything unusual with your pets including

Loss of Appetite
Lethargy
Unexplained Weight Loss
These symptoms can be a sign of a range of medical problems but with any medical issue seeking expert care as soon as you notice something is wrong is key.

Lindzi's quick intervention when she noticed something was not right with Sooty allowed her to spend some valuable time with him before he sadly passed, time that may not have been possible had it not been for Lindzi's quick reaction. If you do notice any unusual signs or symptoms please do not hesitate to schedule a check-up, our team is dedicated to providing our furry friends with the care they need to live happy and healthy lives.

🐾Welcome our newest Pet Health Club member🐾

We had the absolute pleasure of welcoming the adorable Ziggy for a check-up with our wonderful Registered Veterinary Nurse, Melanie Wilkinson! 🩺🐶

This little cutie stole our hearts with wagging tails and puppy kisses. Melanie ensured the visit was full of gentle care, cuddles, and a thorough health check. 🐕💕

🐾Petra and Poppy🐾

This adorable pair visited the practice a few weeks ago for their first vaccinations🐱❤. They were brought in by the lovely Chris at the Norfolk Cat Sanctuary, who is doing amazing work in our community. Petra and Poppy have recently found their new homes, but their two brothers are still waiting to find their forever homes.

These kittens were very brave during their first visit. With their big curious eyes and tiny paws, they melted everyone's hearts instantly. It’s so important to start our furry friends off on the right paw with proper vaccinations, ensuring they grow up healthy and strong.

We love seeing your pets thrive, and we’re here to support you every step of the way 💖🐾

🧠Today's welfare focus is BEHAVIOUR - being allowed to show normal behaviour🧠 Rabbits are extremely sociable animals and can get depressed without social interaction with other rabbits. Rabbits are very friendly and enjoy interaction with other rabbits and humans. It's important to make lots of time daily to interact with your rabbits. Never force handling of your rabbits. Take time to sit with them and encourage them over with treats. Rabbits do not naturally enjoy being picked up and tend to prefer being fussed on the floor where they feel safer. When you do need to handle your rabbits, you should place one hand under the rabbits chest and the other hand under the hind legs. Lift them while holding them against your body to keep them secure. Rabbits are not aggressive by nature however they can bite, scratch and kick when they feel threatened. Rabbits who do not know each other are at a much higher risk or being aggressive. Bonding rabbits can be a lengthy process and needs to be done gradually. Rabbits are very inquisitive and need to be given the opportunity to explore, hide and forage as they would in the wild. Happy and content bunnies will often 'Binkie' and 'Bunny Flop' and can also get zoomies. All of which are very cute to watch. #veterinary #rabbits #rabbitcare #rabbitbehaviour

⚠️ VIEWER DISCRETION IS ADVISED - This post contains videos of surgery ⚠️ Take a look behind the scenes and follow RVN Henry's adorable dog Pepper, throughout her day at the vets! See what happens during a key hole (Laparoscopic) spay for a female dog. The Laparoscopic spay is a neutering procedure that consists of three small wounds and is beneficial for working and lively dogs. This is because the surgical wound is smaller and the recovery period is shorter. As you can see, Pepper was such a good girl for her procedure. She is now back at home and fully recovered. ❤️ If you would like to book your dog in for a Laparoscopic spay please call the practice on 01553 771457 or visit our website for more information.

💙🐰 Dogs wag their tails, cats purr, but do you know how a rabbit shows you they’re happy? Here is RVN Liz’s rabbit, Sweep, showing you just one of the ways they do this… They bunny flop! Bunny flopping is a sign of a blissed out, happy, contented rabbit. Liz adopted Sweep in August after he was found as a stray. We think it’s clear to see just how happy Sweep is in his new home. 🐰💙
