Trefaldwyn vets would like to extend congratulations and a HUGE vote of thanks to Sarah Wilkins who graduated as a veterinary surgeon in 1974, and has been helping animals and their loved ones for 50 years!!!!

Sarah's knowledge, experience and enthusiasm for her work is an enormous asset to everyone at Trefaldwyn vets practice.

There must be many thousands of animals that have been helped by her care and expertise in many parts of the UK. There could be hundreds of animals that she has rescued. Any friend of Sarah will have been encouraged to take a rescue pet and she is never without a house and car full of pets! 🏠🚗

Last Sunday we held a suprise party to try to say thankyou for half a century of service to animals 🐾🥇

BONFIRE NIGHT 🔥🎇🎆

Firework season is just around the corner, like Halloween this can be a stressful time for animals both large and small, here are a few tips to keep it as stress free as possible ⬇️

🧨 Ensure pets are kept indoors at times it is likely there will be firework displays, see below for more details 🎇

🧨If your pets are distressed by noise keep them somewhere they feel safe and secure, Perhaps make them a den they can hide in, this could be under a table or a duvet covered crate, allow them to go wherever they feel safest 🤗

🧨Keep cats inside to avoid them becoming stressed during peak firework season 🐱

🧨Provide extra bedding for small animals to burrow in 🐹🐰

🧨Increase background noise, have the TV on or play the radio. Some dogs find classical music soothing. Classical FM will have two special programmes from 5pm to 9pm on Saturday 2nd November and Tuesday 5th November where they will play the most calming classical music 🎵🎼🎶

🧨Pets need owners to be relaxed, confident and reassuring

🧨Lastly, in extremely stressful phobic animals please get in touch with one of our vets for advice 👨‍⚕️👩‍⚕️

Attached is a link from the county times that highlights all the local Firework displays, which is perfect for pet owners who would like to be prepared ⬇️

H a p p y H a l l o w e e n 🎃 👻 🧙🏻‍♀️

Halloween is a fun night for children and adults, but for our pets the increase in activity and the extra noise can be a little scary and overstimulating.
Here are a few tricks to keep our pets safe and content on one of the spookiest nights of the year! ⬇️

🎃 Keep all treats out of paws reach!! Chocolate and sweets can be toxic to both cats and dogs 🍫🍭

🎃 Keep your pets securely indoors so they don't get the opportunity to escape if they do get spooked 👻

🎃 Keep them occupied, this could be with a tasty treat or with their favourite toy! Having background noise playing can help blur out noise from overexcited trick or treaters 📺📻

🎃 Keep candle lit pumpkins and Halloween decorations out of reach of inquisitive pets

🎃 As always, keep pets identified with a pet tag and an up to date microchip!

We hope you all have a great evening!

From Team TVC & Sandy who for tonight only is identifying as a witch rather than a jersey 🧙🏻‍♀️

Trefaldwyn Vets want to share a huge vote of thanks to their Reception Team in the annual week where we try and raise awareness!
We know that many of you really value our friendly, caring, resourceful, energetic and very knowledgeable front of house team. Trefaldwyn Vets could not function without them! They work with incredible dedication and most of them "take their work home" to answer the phones at night, create social media posts, answer queries and constantly support the vets and nurses via messaging services and all sorts of behind the scenes chores.

Thank you to our wonderful veterinary receptionists!!! 💚

A v a i l a b l e n o w💉‼️

We are excited to announce that we are now stocking a brand new injectable parasite treatment that provides protection against flea's and ticks for up to 1 year!

We often speak to clients who have dogs that can be a little suspicious when owners are trying to tablet them, perhaps you are one of those clients that have to coax them with chicken and cheese! 🧀 🍗
Another advantage is for those dogs who love swimming! As unlike topical solutions there is no need to keep them away from their favourite swimming spots! 💦
This injection offers year round protection in just one dose meaning no more awkward tableting or the need to remember when they were last treated, ensuring peace of mind for you and comfort for your dog.

To find out more information about this product please call the surgery ⬇️

On Thursday we spent the evening indulging in amazing food & fantastic company as we wished the wonderful Maddi good luck as she heads off to veterinary school next week!!
Maddi has been working at Trefaldwyn for the last couple of years as an Animal care assistant along with helping out on reception which means shes worked alongside the whole team, the vets, the nurses & receptionists so you could have met her anywhere at the practice or perhaps on farm.

We will all miss seeing Maddi but wish her all the luck in the world at veterinary school, we know she will be absolutely fantastic in something that she has wanted to do for a very long time, thankfully we will still be seeing a bit of her on Saturday's in reception, So it's not really good-bye 👋🏻

Good luck Maddi, Go and smash it 💪🏻🐄

As always, thank you to the cornstore for fantastic food and great service 😀
