🌟 Patient of the Month: Winnie! 🐾💛

Meet the wonderful Winnie, our superstar of the month! 🌟

When Winnie first came to visit our lovely veterinary nurse, Donna, she was so nervous she didn’t even want to step into reception 😢💔 Her amazing owners were keen to help her feel more at ease, so we suggested our free socialisation clinics.

These gentle, play-based sessions are designed to build confidence by introducing pets to the practice environment and veterinary equipment at their own pace. Think of them as friendly "play-dates" with a purpose!

Winnie’s family also brought her in regularly for quick weight checks and little visits to help her get used to the space – and it’s worked wonders! 🙌 As you can see from the photos, Winnie now loves visiting us. In fact, she recently jumped up onto the reception desk and had to be bribed down with treats! ❤️

We’re so proud of Winnie’s progress and can’t wait to keep seeing her happy face around the practice 🥰🐕

RVN Donna has worked hard to develop our socialisation clinics and has a keen interest in behaviour. We have had many patients attend Donna’s socialisation clinics and build a positive relationship with our practice. If your pet feels anxious about vet visits, we’re here to help! We can also direct you to appropriate resources to manage behavioural concerns.🐾

🐾 Weekly Patient Round-Up! 🐾

We’ve had some truly lovely visitors at Meadow Lane Vets this week, and we just had to share a few of our favourites! 💕

🩺 Riley popped in for a blood pressure check and made sure to enjoy plenty of fuss from RVN Harriet while he was here — definitely a pro at getting pampered!

💉 Lilly came in for her vaccine with the vet, but RVN Liliana couldn’t resist sneaking in a cuddle! Fun fact: Lily has seven toes on each paw! That’s a whole lot of extra cuteness. 🐾

✨ Jinxie, our beautiful feline friend who belongs to our receptionist Urszula, came in just to say hello. Naturally, she turned heads — no one could resist her stunning looks!

😴 Oscar came in so we could investigate a bit of lameness, but he looked very sleepy throughout… possibly dreaming of all the treats he’ll get later?

💙 Skye also came in for her vaccine, and of course RVN Harriet had to pop over for a cuddle — how could you not?

Thank you to all our lovely patients (and their humans) for brightening our week. We feel very lucky to care for such special pets. 🐶🐱💕

📸 Check out the photos below to see all the cuteness for yourself!

As the temperatures climb, it’s crucial to remember that our beloved pets can suffer from heatstroke — a serious and potentially life-threatening condition. Pets can’t sweat like we do, so they rely on panting and other methods to cool down. When they overheat, things can escalate fast.

Watch out for these signs of heatstroke in your pet:

⚠️ Heavy panting or difficulty breathing
⚠️ Excessive drooling or thick saliva
⚠️ Bright red or pale gums
⚠️ Weakness or staggering
⚠️ Vomiting or diarrhea
⚠️ Confusion, disorientation, or collapse
⚠️ Seizures or unconsciousness (in severe cases)

If you notice any of these symptoms, act quickly and bring your pet to us immediately.

Ways to prevent heatstroke and keep your pet safe:
🐾 Walk your dog early in the morning or later in the evening when it’s cooler.
🐾 Always provide plenty of fresh, cool water.
🐾 Offer ice treats or frozen toys to help them cool down.
🐾 Keep your pet in the shade as much as possible, especially during peak heat hours.
🐾 Never leave your pet in a parked car, even for a few minutes — temperatures inside can skyrocket quickly.
🐾 Avoid vigorous exercise on hot days.

Check out the infographic below for first aid tips if your pet has heatstroke⬇️

Say hello to Peye the 13-week-old Irish Wolfhound pup who’s as nice as pie — and twice as cute! 🥧🐶 She popped in for some socialisation and happily received lots of cuddles and fuss from the team. We look forward to watching her grow into those big paws!🐾❤️

Introducing Kylie, our May “Patient of the Month”!🐾Kylie the Pug came to see us to investigate her urinary issues. After investigations and imaging, we discovered and removed LOTS of pesky bladder stones! Kylie is now feeling much better and her owner reports she is like a different dog after surgery to remove the stones. Read her story below! ⬇️

It’s time for another weekly patient round up!

Here are just a few of the lovely patients who brightened our days:

- Otis 🐶 - the cutest little 2-month-old Cockerpoo, visited vet Josh for his first vaccinations. What a brave pup!
- Odin 🐾 - this 5-year-old gentle giant popped in to have a lump checked out and charmed everyone with his friendly nature.
- Coco 🐱 - a playful 5-month-old kitten, came in to be spayed and demanded all the attention from our nursing team (and of course, we were happy to oblige!).
- Guinness 🎩🐕 - the super smart 3-year-old Collie cross, came in for x-rays and a dental – and wowed us with his impressive tricks. What a star!
- Copper and Spoon 🦷🐶 – the lovely Beagle, Spoon, came in for a dental, and brought along his best buddy, Copper, his loyal companion, who was right by his side for moral support. What a dream team!

Please note we’ll be closed over the Bank Holiday. ⛔️ We’ll still be open as usual on Saturday until 12:30pm, and normal hours will resume on Tuesday 27th May. ⏰

Wishing all our clients and their lovely pets a safe and happy long weekend! 🥰

It’s been another busy week at Meadow Lane Vets, and we’ve had plenty of cute patients visit us!🐾 Here are just a few of the adorable faces we've had the pleasure of seeing recently:

❤️Rufus - Rufus the Chihuahua was feeling sorry for himself after his dental procedure but soon cheered up after cuddles from our amazing Kennel Assistant, Callie.

✨ Scampi – Just look at those adorable ears! Scampi's charm is impossible to resist and we are all very fond of him. He always gets plenty of fuss when he pops in for a check-up.

🐾 Loki – Loki had lots of love to give and our receptionist Naz was more than happy to oblige, enjoying a cuddle AND a kiss at reception!

🦷 Django – Django came in for a dental procedure. Look at those beautiful long whiskers! Django was such a good girl and lapped up the attention in our cat ward.

💋 Nugget – Nugget was spreading the love on reception with a sweet kiss for our lovely Sophie. Nothing like a little nugget of joy to brighten your day!

📸 Kylie – Kylie the Pug posed perfectly for her picture and was the bravest girl during her bladder surgery. Kylie has such a sweet nature and we loved having her stay with us.

We absolutely love caring for your pets and are always happy to give them a cuddle and a kiss🐾
