Pet Health Check – only £24.99!* 🩺

The festivities may be over, but your furry friends might still feel the effects! From gobbling goodies, to the excitement of visitors, the holiday season can take its toll.

💡Your pet can’t tell you what’s wrong, but we can:
☑️ Weight and body: That extra snacking, chilly weather and salty pavements can all add up!
☑️ Behaviour changes: The stress of changes in routine and noisy celebrations can affect your pet’s well-being.
☑️ Joints and mobility: Cold weather can affect mobility by making your pet’s joints stiff and painful.

Our expert veterinary nurses can spot and address any potential concerns early to ensure your pet starts the New Year healthy and happy! 🥳

Polite reminder:

We endeavour to see all of your Pets at the time in which their appointment is booked for.

Unfortunately, as is expected in any health care setting, there are times where our Vets have to spend that extra time with a Pet and this can cause them to run behind with appointments and cause a wait.

This can be due to the Pet being very anxious and needing time to be examined or treated. The Pet being very unwell and the Vet needs more time to stabilise them before they're admitted for ongoing care. Sometimes, sadly the Pet is very poorly and it comes to 'that time' and we need to allow their family time with their Pet for their final goodbyes. There are many more reasons why this may be.

You are welcome to reschedule your appointment if you are unable to wait or wait outside or in your car if this is more comfortable for you and your Pet.

We are aware that waiting can be difficult for some Pets and frustrating for some Owners. We do ask that you are patient and polite with our members of staff during this time as they will also be feeling the pressure of trying to look after very poorly animals and worrying about running behind

Happy Halloween from all at Elm!🎃👻🍭

We hope everyone has a fun and safe evening!

Remember not all Pets can find this evening as fun as us. Unexpected knocks on the door, costumes, masks, loud noises etc can spook some Pets.

If your Pet can be a bit anxious and may struggle with these changes this evening, try some of these simple steps to help ease this for them:

🎃Create a quiet safe space for them to snuggle down in

👻Pop calming plug ins such as pet remedy, feliway etc on

🧛‍♂️Ensure they are in an enclosed space when answering the door to trick or treaters

🕷️Consider putting a sign on the door to remind trick or treaters to be mindful

Today we had to say a really difficult and sad farewell to our amazing Vet, Hannah, who is leaving Elm.

Hannah has been with us since 2016 and is a much loved member of our team. She has nurtured many of our new grad or 'new to the Practice' vets over the year. Hannah has a wealth of knowledge, kindness and support for our clients and all our staff, which we're sure her new team will appreciate and love as much as we do.

We wish her all the best in her new venture and hope she knows she is always welcome for cake and cuddles with her lovely pup Aggie or kitty Bernard when he's not terrorising her neighbourhood! 🐶🐱👩‍⚕️💚

We've sadly had a deceased cat handed into the Milehouse Practice today. Found on Di**le Road. All black, entire male. No collar but is microchipped.

We have contacted the microchip company for details, unfortunately, the description and age details sent over by the company doesn't completely match the Cat. We've contacted the microchip company about this and they have advised they've had some cases where the chip number inputted doesn't match the animal it's been inserted to.

Please contact us on 01752 567567 or send an email to [email protected], if you think this could be your Cat.

Unfortunately, we're not able to man this page as often as we'd like to, to answer all comments

We've been missing two of our amazing Vets, Cristina and Fernando from the Practice this week and will be missing them next week, as they're currently volunteering at the Carriacou Animal Hospital.

They are helping to treat and care for the animals in Carriacou who have been effected by Hurricane Beryl.

We are all extremely proud of them, for their continuous hard work and dedication to caring for the animals that visit our Practices and for helping these animals in need. We look forward to hearing all about it when they return! 😊
