Heat stress starts as a reversible condition, but if not managed it will develop to heat stroke, which is extremely dangerous. If your pet shows any of these signs, they should be moved to a cool area and offered plenty of water to drink. Find out more about keeping your pet safe in hot weather here:

Imagine you are deaf. You can’t hear your smoke alarm or alarm clock. You can’t hear your text messages. You miss out on social interactions. That’s what life is like for deaf people, and it can be very isolating. A hearing dog can make a big difference. You can help our charity of the year – Hearing Dogs for Deaf People – help a deaf person leave loneliness behind, by adding a donation via Pennies when you pay by card. Just a small donation can help deaf people escape isolation and reconnect with life. Thank you.

To travel with your pet to an EU country or Northern Ireland, there are some requirements your pet will need before you travel. We would recommend that you start the process at least four months before your journey.
To find out more about pet travel requirements abroad, visit: vetcollection.co.uk/health/travelling-with-your-pet

Are you looking to travel abroad with your pet this summer? If you are, you will be required to obtain an Animal Health Certificate (AHC) for them.
An AHC needs to be issued by an Official Veterinarian (OV). Check with your veterinary practice to see if they have a qualified OV because not every practice will have one.

Have you ever wondered how guide dogs start their lives before they become the faithful friends to the people they support?
If the dogs aren’t suited to a career as a guide dog, there are alternative career paths available which enable them to change lives in other ways. In this video, Tim Stafford (Director of Canine Affairs), Ian Morris (Head of Operations Projects), Natalie Glew (Buddy Dog Partnership Specialist), Marianne Griffiths (Events Demonstration Team Leader), and volunteer Melanie discuss alternative career opportunities for some of the guide dogs.
Ask us in practice about how you can donate to Guide Dogs.

The International Society for Feline Medicine (ISFM) is the veterinary division of International Cat Care (www.icatcare.org), a charity dedicated to improving the health and welfare of cats worldwide.
We understand that there are unique difficulties in bringing a cat to a veterinary clinic:
• Cats often do not travel well and feel
unsafe away from their home
• They are highly sensitive to new sights,
sounds and smells
• Most cats prefer quiet and solitude and
are highly susceptible to stress
• Most cats are highly stressed by nearby
dogs in a vet clinic
• Cats need to be handled gently and with
respect in the clinic.
For further advice, give us a call 01372 379636

At International Cat Care we believe in a world in which each cat’s life experience will be as good as it can be. We do this by providing cat owners, veterinary professionals and those that live and work with cats with the resources, support and advice they need to care better for their cats.

Applying eye drops or ointment to your cat:
• Hold your cat firmly but gently - having a second person to help will make it easier, or you can try wrapping the cat in a towel or blanket if they are wriggly.
• Hold your cat’s head in your hands, tilting the head so the nose is pointing upwards
• Open the eyelids gently on one side with a thumb and finger
• Place a few drops or a line of ointment on the surface of the eye (as directed by your vet)
• Close the eyelids and massage gently to spread the medication over the whole of the eye
