We just had to share this tiny chap with you! This is ‘Parker Blue’ who came into The Pet Vet to be castrated. The little lad enjoyed lots of cuddles with our nurses after his surgery. As a miniature breed, he's very small but fully grown and insanely cute! 🥰

After a long wait, it feels like summer has finally arrived! ☀️ Please be mindful of the summer heat when walking your dog.

Here's a quick & easy way to check the pavement temperature 👇

⚠️ If in doubt, please don't walk your dog. Consider waiting until later in the evening/earlier in the morning when the pavement and air temperature is cooler.

A dog has never died from missing one walk, but dogs have died from one walk in the heat. Don't take the risk 💔

Hettie came to us as an emergency, she managed to get her paws on a fruit & nut chocolate bar. We induced vomiting straight away, and it wasn’t long before she was on her way back home.

Here she is feeling very sorry for herself, lots of cuddles were needed 💚

Thank you for the lovely review, your experience means a lot to us! 🧡

Meet Pepper 🐶

Pepper had part of a stick stuck in her foot. The Vet Josh pulled it out, shes now happy as if nothing ever happened.

Although our beloved pets love their sticks, sometimes they can be more of a danger than a toy. In this case no harm was done but in some cases they can break apart and become lodged in their throat, causing obstruction to their airways and even lacerations to the throat. 🐾

13/06/2024

We have had an entire male, no microchip, no injuries - handed into us. He was found in the Bakersfield area.

If you think he could be yours, please get in touch ASAP on 0115 896 9984.

Although Winston doesn’t look very impressed with his visit to the vets, we sure enjoyed giving him some fuss!

Winston came in for his microchip in line with the new law. Microchipping is beneficial to all cat owners, not only is it a quick and easy process it also ensures your pet will be reunited with you if they ever go missing.

There really are no downsides 💚🧡

Meet the gorgeous Gem 🐶 Gem's owner enrolled her in our weight management program earlier this year. Together, we tailored a diet plan specifically for Gem to help her shed some of her excess weight. At the outset, she weighed in at 35kg.

Today, Gem returned for her follow-up appointment, and the progress is remarkable! She now weighs 28.8kg, showing significant improvement in her energy levels and mobility. Although she still has a bit more weight to lose, we're confident that with the continued dedication of her family, Gem will soon achieve her target weight! ⭐

Please speak to our team if you'd like to know more about our weight management clinics!

Today, the change in law comes into force which means all cats aged 20 weeks and older must be microchipped and registered on a database.

Owners found not to have microchipped their cat will have 21 days to have one implanted or face a fine of up to £500.

Microchipping is a quick, straightforward procedure! Contact our team to get booked in.

The mandatory scheme aims to make it easier for lost or stray pet cats to be reunited with their owners.

We couldn't possibly end National Volunteer Week without mentioning Terry Pearson - our Head of Commercial Services & Estate. Terry has been a Trustee at Bradford Cinderella Club since 1990 (yes, you read that right!).

The Cinderella Club has one basic aim, which is to improve life for the underprivileged children of Bradford. They work to achieve this through enabling them to:

➡️ Participate in activities alongside their school friends.
➡️ Obtain some of the desirables in life that others take for granted.
➡️ Obtain some of the necessities for life within their own area of need.

Terry says: "As an active member of the charity, I try to bring my life skills to benefit the club and the children it exists to assist. This could be anything, ranging from providing input into funding applications, or generally using my knowledge dealing with the situations life in the 21st Century throws at entities such as ours."

Terry has also been Chairman/Trustee & Managing Director of Eccleshill Mechanics Institute since 2017. Terry is involved with this vital community hub across all levels, from securing the building for the community with a 99-year lease, to cooking up a storm with his bistro nights and fish & chip Fridays! 👨‍🍳

We have had an entire male black and white cat handed into us. The cat requires medical attention, however, does not have a microchip. If you recognise this cat, or know who it may belong to, please contact us on 0115 896 9984.

This National Volunteer Week, we thought we'd share the adventures of RVN Megan who jetted off to volunteer her skills & expertise in Greece!

Megan spent 2 weeks volunteering on the island of Paxos on a workplace-sponsored trip, facilitated by local charity PAWS (Paxos Animal Welfare Society). PAWS runs entirely on the support of volunteers.

On her experience, Megan said...

“My first impressions were how amazing the facilities were; from having a fully functioning anaesthetic machine with an oxygen generator, and an autoclave for ensuring we could safely sterilise the instruments being used.

“The amazing team of volunteers would spend a lot of time out on the island trapping cats for us. We would then safely transfer them to crush cages so they could be anaesthetised and prepared for surgery.

“The cats were provided with adequate sedation and pain relief to allow the Vet to perform surgery while myself and a fellow veterinary nurse would take it in turns monitoring or preparing the next patient for surgery.

“All cats are ear tipped so once fully recovered, they can be safely released back and identified as neutered so they are not trapped again.

“As well as neutering we would provide other health care as needed, such as removing rotten and broken teeth, ear tipping for cats suffering from cancer, and for one patient, we even placed a makeshift dressing on after finding out he had fractured his leg!

“With all our hard work, we managed to neuter over 109 cats! What an achievement for only 2 weeks on the island. I’m looking forward to the opportunity to break that record on my next trip if we can!”

Let's face it, some of our pets have zero concept of personal space. And most of the time, we absolutely love it! However, if they have particularly pongy breath, this may cause problems (for your nose, at least) when they lean in a little closer...👃

Did you know pet breath shouldn't actually smell bad? By maintaining a good oral hygiene routine, you can keep suspicious smells at bay, as well as many other signs of dental disease. 🦷

During a dental health check, our team can examine your pet's teeth and spot any potential issues before they have a chance to develop into anything more serious (or expensive).

If you have any concerns about your pet's teeth, don't delay coming in to see our team!
