We have an in-house labatory at Pet Doctors which means we are able to perform a wide range of our own diagnostic tests, including blood tests, microscopy and urinalysis🔬
Our clinical team at the practice are trained on how to work these machines correctly to produce rapid results, often in just a couple of hours!
Here we have spun some blood in a centrifuge, ready to run a biochemistry test. Biochemistry analyses the blood plasma to check the function of organs such as the liver and kidneys🔬
Prevention is better than cure! 🐾
Untreated high blood pressure in cats can lead to serious and irreversible damage to the heart, brain, kidneys and eyes, resulting in blindness in some cases.
By being proactive and booking your cat in for regular blood pressure checks, they could be avoiding the potentially life threatening consequences of feline hypertension. 🐾
Feline Hypertension is our clinical focus at Pet Doctors, which is why we are offering blood pressure checks at a special price of £14.33, please call us on 01323 894568 to book

It's #FelineHypertensionMonth which is why we're spreading awareness of how important it is to know the signs of high blood pressure in your cat
Quite often, cats will show no noticeable signs of having high blood pressure. Subtle changes in behaviours can be a crucial indicator that something isn't quite right! Blood pressure checks are the best way to diagnose and screen for feline hypertension.

Signs of feline hypertension are often invisible and unfortunately, many cats only show signs of hypertension after the disease starts to cause serious damage to their heart, brain, kidneys and eyes.
Make sure your cat is getting their blood pressure checked regularly!

Did you know that May is Feline Hypertension month?🐾
High blood pressure in cats, also known as feline hypertension, is a potentially life-threatening condition that occurs in around 1 in 5 cats over 9 years of age.
This disease is treatable with medication, but 82% of senior cats don't receive blood pressure checks.
