Continuing from our post about the wonderful Walter yesterday💙, Here he is after his recovery happily bonded with his partner 'Chungus' 💕
Because Walter and Chungus have both been neutered and correctly bonded they are now absolutely in love with each other and spend all day in each others company, grooming each other and snuggling up 💕
Here are some reasons neutering your rabbit is so important:
🐰 Preventing unwanted litters
🐰Removes the risks of cancer in their testes and prostate gland in males
🐰Helps removes or reduce aggressions
🐰Rabbits must be neutered to safely live with any other rabbit, rabbits cannot truly bond and will have a very likely chance of fighting and injuring each other if not neutered
🐰unneutered females have a very high risk of uterine cancer and pyometra (infection of the uterus/womb) Which can both be fatal.
🐰Rabbit pregnancies are short at around 31 days – and there are several kits to each litter. Females are able to mate again immediately after they have given birth, so if the dad is still around, it’s very likely that you will have a population explosion.
Look at how happy Daisy looks post surgery. She was a little sore so we ensured we kept her as comfortable as possible by spoon feeding her, so she wasn't having to dig through a bowl for her food. she was such a sweet girl during her stay with us and we hope she is feeling much better now.

TRIGGER WARNING!!!!!
DO NOT CLICK PLAY IF AT ALL SQUEEMISH.
Here is us opening up the lump that was found on daisy. as you can see it was a very big abscess that needed to be drained and removed in order for her to heal. This must of been so painful for here but she will feel so much better with that out of her body!!

✨🦷£100 OFF DENTAL PROCEDURES🦷✨
The gorgeous Poppy has been one of the few so far to have benefited from the discounted dental assessment under general anaesthetic and required some oral surgery to have some teeth extracted along the way. Poppy had a moderate build up of tartar and gingivitis (inflammation of the gums) and gum recession along her upper teeth, as well as some wobbly incisors. But we were able to treat this accordingly and you can even see how happy she was to be eating so well afterwards too! Wishing you a speedy recovery with those squeaky clean teeth 🦷
Are you worried about the brown tartar building up on your pet’s teeth?🤔 Perhaps a funky smell lingering in their mouth or a change in their eating behaviours? You can book in for a FREE dental consultation with one of our nurses for an initial check up and chat about what we can offer!🐕🐈🐇

🕷️ Who knows what these pesky parasites could be?!🕷️
🔎 They are approximately 0.4mm in size, detectable by the naked eye as a tiny white speck.
🔎 Can be transferred to different species of animals🐱🐶🐰 although they are most commonly seen in cats, and rarely affect humans.
🔎 Will only survive without a host for 4-6 days, but can cause a lot of issues when thriving in the place they like to live the most if left untreated.
Have you guessed it? Stay tuned if you are itching to know the answer!
EDIT: The answer is ear mites! Also known as Otodectes. Symptoms of ear mites can include excessive shaking the head and scratching ears, dark waxy or crusty discharge, red and sore looking ears. Leaving these critters to fester too long could even result in the loss of hearing😖

🐱Happy Caturday!! 🐱 These little bundles of joy did make us smile this week😆 We are very lucky we get to see many balls of fluff brought into us by Rugby Cats Protection! Cats Protection and their fosterers and volunteers work incredibly hard to ensure their cats and kittens are well prepped and ready for rehoming to the right families. They ensure all their cats are vet checked🩺, microchipped, neutered ✂️, vaccinated💉 and FIV/FeLV tested before they leave their care. You are probably aware of the overwhelming overpopulation of cats in need of their forever homes, so if you are ever considering a new 🐈 additions, would like to help volunteer or donate to a great cause, please do give this wonderful charity a thought. #catsprotection #animalhousevets
Sometimes we get to see some very satisfying & cool cases. Here is one from this morning! ⬇️
Poppy was brought in urgently as she was snorting and sneezing and really struggling. Her owner was worried she had eaten something and it was stuck in her throat.
We got to work quickly and found the culprit was in fact a blade of grass stuck at the back of her nose! 👀🙀
She woke up much happier and has already gone home for a well deserved nap 😴
THAT’S A WRAP! Did you celebrate or treat your pets to anything for #PetAppreciationWeek?🎁 One of our nurses felt her cat’s deserved a new scratch post, but sharing lessons may need to be had!😆🐈🐈 #animalhousevets #catsrule #dogsrule #catappreciation #dogappreciation #petappreciation #veterinarynurselife #smallanimalvet
