July is National Pet Loss Prevention Month, which aims to minimise the number of pets that go missing, so throughout the month, we will share some top tips to help you keep your pet safe and secure.

Whether you're a new pet owner or have been one for years, these tips are designed to help you create a safe environment for your pet.

🏡Take a proactive approach by conducting a thorough inspection of your garden. Ensure your fence is not only tall enough to prevent your pet from jumping over it (ideally 6ft tall) but also deep enough into the ground to deter any escape attempts.

💨⛈️Regular checks are key to maintaining a secure environment for your pet. After any storms or high winds, it's important to inspect your garden for any potential damage that could compromise your pet's safety.

🏡 Always keep gates securely closed when your dog is in the garden to eliminate any possibility of escape.

Do you know what illnesses affect rabbits the most?

As prey animals, rabbits hide pain and illness well. Therefore, it is very important for your rabbit to have a check-up at least once a year to detect any underlying issues or detect and potential problems early on.

To keep your rabbit fit and healthy, we recommend carrying out the following checks at home:

👁️ Eyes: Ensure your rabbit’s eyes are clear, shiny and free from discharge

👂 Ears: Ensure your rabbit’s ears are free from discharge and no mites are present

👄 Mouth: Ensure your rabbit’s mouth is free from drooling and there is no swelling present around the cheek areas

🐰Skin and coat: Ensure your rabbit is appropriately groomed, looking out for any fur that may be matted and bald patches, as well as mites. (If matted fur is present, a vet visit would be necessary as rabbit skin is extremely delicate, and a home groom may cut the skin)

💅 Nails: Ensure your rabbit’s nails are not overgrowing or curling

🐇 Bottom: Ensure your rabbit bottom is free from faeces and urine staining. If faeces are present, they should be gently washed away, and the area needs to be dried thoroughly. Rabbits with faeces on their bottoms are more at risk of flystrike.

26/06/2024

🐇Rabbits are active animals and need an environment with plenty of room to hop, binky, run, dig, stretch out and stand tall...

It is very important to provide your rabbit with ample space to stretch, run, lie down, and binky. Did you know that there are guidelines for minimum space requirements for housing rabbits, whether they live inside or out?

The RSPCA advises that rabbits need the below as a minimum space requirement for two average-sized rabbits. But, of course, if you can provide more space, that is even better for your rabbit’s welfare.

A hutch should be permanently attached to a larger run to ensure they can exercise freely, such as rabbit friendly room indoors or a larger secure run outdoors.

It’s recommended it is at least 2m long x 60cm wide x 60 cm tall to house two paired rabbits, which they have access to at all times, so they can move freely and explore as they would if they were wild rabbits.

Top tips:
🐰It is important to note that the space must be across a single level, so raised hutches within the space will not count towards the minimum space requirement.

🐰If you can provide free-range space, that is even better, but please ensure roaming is supervised.

🐰 Most importantly, the bigger the space, the more room they will have to exercise and keep in shape!

🐰 This week is Rabbit Awareness Week, and this year's theme is 'Healthy Diet, Happy Bunnies', so today, we wanted to share a little more about the importance of a balanced diet.

Rabbits require a diet based on 80% grass or feeding hay, 15% greens, 5% good-quality pellets or nuggets (around one egg cup twice a day), and fresh water.

Feeding nuggets ensures your rabbit eats a balanced diet, as it won't have the option to 'selective feed' by picking its favourite parts out of a mixed diet.

Feeding the correct diet is probably the single most important way to ensure a healthy and long-lived rabbit. Here are six top tips for ensuring your rabbit has a balanced diet...

🐇💧 You should ensure that your rabbit always has access to fresh, clean drinking water.

🐇🌿 When providing food for your rabbit, fresh grass is the preferred choice, but when not available, hay is a good substitute that is available all year round and provides them with the nutrients they require.

🐇🌾Hay provides lots of long-strand fibre, keeping your rabbit's gut moving. It is also the closest thing to a natural diet. Rabbits would naturally graze all day in the wild, so please ensure your rabbit has an unlimited supply.

🐇 🥗 Complete rabbit food is also available, but it should not be used as a replacement for hay. Please use it as a nutritional supplement.

🐇🥦 Many plants can be safely enjoyed by rabbits, including broccoli, parsley, spring greens, and dandelions. They also love the leaves from an apple or hazel tree. When feeding them plants, you should keep the portion sizes to a minimum.

🐇🥕 Fruits should be counted as a treat for your rabbit as they are high in sugar. Your rabbit may enjoy a grape, slice of apple, slice of orange or carrots.

Our Pet Health for Life plan is designed to make your life easier. It includes all the doses your pet needs for year-round flea treatment, ensuring you never have to worry about missing their treatment again!

When it comes to parasites in cats and dogs, regular treatments reduce discomfort for your pet and possibly yourself. In addition, regular treatment helps prevent disease from spreading between animals and also stops some diseases in people. Ignoring the problem will only make things worse and may end up affecting not just your pet but your home, too.

Here are some ways to tell if your cat or dog has fleas:
⚪ Bite marks and scabs
⚪ Excessive scratching
⚪ Itchy bite marks on your skin
⚪ Tiny black specks in your pet’s fur or on their bedding

Eggs can lie dormant for months, so you need to treat your cat or dog for fleas all year round.

🥪🌞 Today marks National Picnic Day, signalling the impending arrival of summer and the embrace of outdoor activities with freshly made picnics.

Imagine the joy of your dog joining in the fun on this National Picnic Day. You can prepare a dog-friendly packed lunch to include with your picnic, as many human foods are toxic or can cause gastrointestinal problems for dogs.

Ensuring your pet's safety is paramount. We recommend packing regular treats or even a frozen treat for them to enjoy slowly. Remember, when you're out in the sun with your pet, always be safe, stay in the shade, and avoid the hottest parts of the day.

⚠️ Here are some hazards to be aware of...

😺😾😿 Tell-Tail signs your cat may have allergies...

Cats commonly experience four primary allergy types: insect bites, food allergies, atopic dermatitis, and contact allergies.

While these allergies may exhibit similar symptoms, each allergy possesses unique characteristics.

From contact with other animals to exploring the great outdoors, our pets have plenty of opportunities to pick up nasty parasites daily.

Parasites can negatively affect pets' and humans' health, so it is important to ensure your pet is protected against them.

Parasites are a common occurrence in the UK, and our pets are particularly vulnerable to them. Some of the most prevalent parasites found here are:

🦟 Ticks: Tick bites can pass on diseases such as Lymes Disease and cause allergic reactions or infections at the site of the bite.

🐛 Worms: There is a wide variety of worms, such as tapeworms, roundworms, heartworms, whipworms, and hookworms.

🐛Lungworm: Lungworms are potentially deadly parasites carried by foxes, slugs and snails.

🕷️ Fleas: Fleas affect dogs and cats and can be seen all year round. Signs that your pet may be suffering from fleas include itching, scratching and licking. You may also see 'flea dirt' – tiny dark specks that look a little like grains of soil and go red when wet.

Keep your pet protected and book your parasite treatment so they are flea-free to be themselves >>https://ow.ly/2M1r50Sfg4A

Did you know? The hot summer months create an increase in toxic blue-green algae across the UK.

This may appear as green or greenish-brown scum or foam on the water surface and contains toxins harmful to animals. It is not actually an algae but an accumulation of cyanobacteria. Dogs often swallow it by drinking water from an affected lake, river, or pond or by licking their fur after swimming. If you think blue-green algae is present, do not let your dog near it.

Unfortunately, the toxins can cause severe liver damage and can ultimately be fatal. There are currently no known preventative medicines, and prompt veterinary treatment is essential to ensure any chance of recovery.

If you are concerned, please get in touch with us immediately.

If you own small animals like rabbits or guinea pigs, here are some tips to help them remain calm and happy. 🧶Provide extra bedding if your pet lives outdoors so they can burrow down and feel safe from any bright lights and loud noises. This will give them a comfortable and secure space to hide away from the excitement. 🏡Consider bringing your pet indoors for the night to shield them from the noise and commotion of the evening. Playing some relaxing music can also help to muffle the sound of fireworks and create a calming atmosphere. 🚪If your pet already lives indoors, close curtains and windows to dampen the sound of loud bangs and create a more peaceful environment. If you have any further questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us. #BonfireNight #Fireworks
