With just 2 weeks to go, preparations are in full swing. Baking, and visiting friends and family its easy to forget those easy to access areas for the opportunistic noses. 🐶🐕
Each year we see Mince pies or Christmas cake thief's needing to be made sick. Raisins are toxic cooked or straight out of the bag. Keep them out of reach (from experience it's amazing how high a dog can reach/stretch when minces pie are around)

As we start to give and receive gifts and put them under our trees, sneaky noses can sniff out food 🐶🐱🐰.
Each year we will see pets that have eaten gifts from under the tree (especially chocolate 🍫 which can be toxic to dogs, cats and even rabbits). If you are giving a food gift no matter how well wrapped to a pet owner it's always advisable to let them know to keep out the reach of inquisitive pets.

We've been celebrating our 15th anniversary today (although it's officially tomorrow!). Clare and I wanted to say a massive thank you to all of our patients, clients and our staff. It's been a great 15 years - We've all grown a bit older (and some of us a bit greyer!), there has been lots of changes, plenty of ups and a few downs. It's been such a pleasure to get to know some great personalities, both human and otherwise!!

Thanks also to Dennis Delights Cakes for the fabulous cakes, we hope some of you enjoyed them today!

Here's to the next 15 years!

So with the start of a new month. A weekend shout out for this handsome boy who's October was long tough.

Meet Jack, the recipient of Robyns blood.

Jack presented feeling a little under the weather. His blood results showed he was a little anaemic, but his body was working hard to resolve this by making new blood cells(regenerative).

Unfortunately, 3 days later, despite standard treatment, Jack came in as an emergency, collapsed and bleeding from his nose.

A blood sample showed he was dangerously aneamic his count (% of blood that is red cells) that should be between 37% and 61% was actually just below 10%. The platelets that help the blood to clot where reading 0 (normal range 148 – 484)!

Jack has a condition called immune-mediated thrombocytopaenia (IMT). This means the bodies own immune system attacks its own platelets and his blood cannot clot. He needed a blood transfusion without delay.

Fast forward 3 weeks, Jack is improving daily. You can see the difference in the pictures in the colour of his gums. His last blood sample was encouraging and continuing to improve.
Jack is a star 🌟 He comes in with a tail wag and never complains at blood sampling.

✨️ 25kg or over.🐾

We had another victim of fishing line and hooks this afternoon. This poor juvenile Gannett found themselves in a bit of a pickle, but was luckily found and brought in by a caring member of the public. Not 1 but 2 three pronged hooks needed removing. A full check over found they were in good condition, An injection of anti inflammatory pain relief and relased. An amazing bird.

Brighten up a wet blustery day.

This pocket sized cutie is Albie. He is a Caique parrot 🦜. Unlike his feathers he was feeling a little dull, hopefully after his visit yesterday with Chris he will soon back to his happy, chatty and clown like antics.
You cannot help but smile when you look at him 😍.

Blood been gently agitated to prevent clotting

When Gus came to Norfolk on holiday he wasn't planning on a trip to the vets. Whilst out enjoying himself he decided to eat a crab 🦀 bait bag complete with dried fish 🐟 contents. Luckily a team effort we where able to retrieve the bag from deep inside to stomach with the endoscope saving Gus from a major surgical procedure. Below is a video of the bag coming out and pictures of the bag sat in the pylorus of the stomach (the end bit of the stomach that lets contents through to the small intestines)
