A big thank you to Vets4Pets Tilehurst for inviting Kevin to speak about pet bereavement.

⭐️ This month’s Pet of the month goes to Winnie! ⭐️
She’s been nominated for Pet of the Month after recovering from major surgery at the beginning of January after eating a child’s toy. Winnie is now fully recovered and back to her normal naughty self. 💕
Luckily, Winnie’s owners noticed that she wasn’t herself and was under the weather. Without them, we wouldn’t have been able to identify the problem and get the toy out of her intestines, where it was stuck and couldn’t get through. If you notice any change in your pet’s behaviour, it’s always best to get them checked out! Call us on 0118943190 to make an appointment.

Meet the team! 🐾 “Hi my name is Zoe and I am the new vet at Vets4Pets Tilehurst. I qualified from the University of Nottingham in 2021 🐾 I started my career at a small animal practice in Didcot and then joined Vets4Pets Tilehurst at the beginning of January. Unfortunately I don’t have any pets as I have such a busy lifestyle outside of work with theatre 🎭 and dancing 💃. A fact about me: I’ve been dancing since I was 3 and started theatre when I was 11. I’ve had so many lovely clients/patients so far, I can’t wait to meet the rest! 💛”.

💞Happy Valentines Day to all of the pets who are loved so very much, and to their people too 💞
Keep in mind that as with most of our celebrated holidays there are dangers for our pets so make sure they are kept out of reach, and remember to keep lillies away from our cat friends.

Bella is our first furry friend to take advantage of the Senior Pet Health Check with our Nurses. Please contact us if your pet is over 9 years of age and you're interested in an appointment with our Nursing Team.

Almost everyone knows of Vets4Pets - our presence on television and social media makes sure of that! - but what many people do NOT know is how Vets4Pets ACTUALLY works. So, I’m going to briefly explain!
Most people think all Vets4Pets are connected - and we sort of are - but, actually each and every practice is INDIVIDUALLY owned! So, take Tilehurst for instance: most people know the team, as most of us have been there from the start but the practice is owned by our wonderful JVP Hassan who also owns the Reading Vets4Pets.
Vets4Pets and the JVP are partners - but the practice is essentially his. We are not under any corporate direction on protocols, what to do medically or surgically, what medications to dispense or how to run the show.
What Vets4Pets corporate side does is they handle all of our suppliers, marketing, payroll, accounting, human relations issues, etc. They provide top shelf continuing education courses for our clinical team. They help us deal with sticky situations that we may not know how to handle alone. They provide business advice with budgeting, staffing, stock control, etc, in order that the practice continues to grow. They built and kitted out the practice and provided us with the means to finance it.
We are partners, because we both want to continue to thrive and continue to provide you all with the best care in the country!
So, when you see Vets4Pets and your first instinct is “ah, they’re just another corporate vet!”, I’d like you to know that we are far less “corporate” than any of the actual veterinary corporations in the country - each one of us owns and runs our practices exactly how we want, and we run ours as a super friendly, supportive and happy team, who's number one love is taking care of our patients the way we would our own families... which is so very important, well, for me anyway!
Thanking you, as always, for your continued support and for trusting us with the health and care of your furry family members - We never take any of this for granted.

We've had an adult neutered male black and white domestic short haired cat handed in to us as the finders thought he was injured.

(We can confirm that he is uninjured.)

He was found in RG30 2QR which we believe is Shaftesbury Road area.

As he is not microchipped we are unable to contact his people.

Please share this and contact us with pics/detailed description if you think he may be yours.

Beautiful Bella has lost two kilograms on a weight loss journey with Wakefield Vets4Pets – and owner Hayley says she's much more active, playful and affectionate as a result. "She just seems generally less grumpy as well – she probably felt how we do when we've overindulged!"

When Bella came in for her booster vaccination a year ago the team noted that she was overweight and would need to slim down to help her live a long and happy life. Since then the three-year-old house cat has been put on a special diet and she's now lost a third of her weight. Hayley said: "We're incredibly grateful to the team at Vets for Pets. They've given us some great advice and tips to keep the weight down. They are so approachable and we've never felt judged by them."

Head veterinary nurse Jess said: "Bella has been on her weight loss journey for over a year now and she's seen once a month for basically Waggy Weightwatchers as we call it. The owners have stuck with the plan very well and took note of everything we have told them, which is great. A 2kg loss is quite a substantial loss for a cat, so she's done really well."

Ten-month-old Filemon is on the mend after he fell behind a wardrobe and fractured one of his front legs in three places.

He was taken to the specialist orthopaedic team at Vets4Pets Cross Hands in Llanelli by his owners Kasia and Andrzej where he had surgery to repair the bone with implants. The main recovery barriers for Filemon were possible nerve damage, and keeping him quiet long enough to give his bone and wound time to heal – which veterinary nurse Rebecca says is no easy task for a cat owner. She said: "Thankfully, with the help of his diligent owner and plenty of the right medication, Filemon is recovering well and has full range of motion in his leg."

Kasia said: "We'd like to say a massive thank you to the Vets for Pets team for doing an amazing job to get Filemon back on his four legs! After surgery Filemon was in a crate for six weeks which wasn't easy for him being such a young and playful kitten. It's now been two months since the surgery and he's recovering really well. He's enjoying himself again just like before the accident."

Meet Jimmy, thanks to his microchip, he was reunited with his family after 2 years!

In 2021, Jimmy was suspected to be involved in a road traffic accident in which his owners were told he didn't make it. After straying for 2 years, a member of the public brought him into Doncaster Vets4Pets where our team scanned him for a microchip. After a quick call to his owners, our team were able to reunite him with his owners. We do love a happy ending💚

Storm visited Preston Capitol Vets4Pets after she got a stick stuck up her nose on a walk. The team used an otoscope to help find the stick inside her nasal passage. After using general anaesthetic, they used forceps to pull our the stick that was tightly wedged. After the removal, Storm was back to her usual happy self 💚

Cookie visited Vets4Pets Harlow after her owner noticed her eyes had become cloudy and sore. Luckily, her owner had seen this before and knew she had to act quickly. Cookie had suffered from hay pokes, where bits of hay can scratch or pierce the eye. After being put under local anaesthetic, the team were able to remove the tiny pieces of hay and get Cookie feeling a lot more comfortable.

Well done to Cookie's owner, our team, and of course, Cookie💚
