Our Pet Health for Life plan is designed to make your life easier. It includes all the doses your pet needs for year-round flea treatment, ensuring you never have to worry about missing their treatment again!

When it comes to parasites in cats and dogs, regular treatments reduce discomfort for your pet and possibly yourself. In addition, regular treatment helps prevent disease from spreading between animals and also stops some diseases in people. Ignoring the problem will only make things worse and may end up affecting not just your pet but your home, too.

Here are some ways to tell if your cat or dog has fleas:
⚪ Bite marks and scabs
⚪ Excessive scratching
⚪ Itchy bite marks on your skin
⚪Fo Tiny black specks in your pet’s fur or on their bedding

Eggs can lie dormant for months, so you need to treat your cat or dog for fleas all year round.

😺 Today, in England, it is a compulsory requirement to microchip your cat before it reaches the age of 20 weeks.

If your cat is older than 20 weeks and is not microchipped, book an appointment to have one implanted.

If your cat is already microchipped, the law also requires that the details associated with the chip be up to date, so please check that your pet's microchip details are up to date.

Our Vet, Claire is out and about in our Mobile Clinic today doing home visits! 🚐🐾 If you see them out and about give them a wave!👋🏼 If you would like more information regarding our Mobile Clinic please head to our website or call your local Folly Gardens clinic. 💚🐾

This lovely enjoyed his pet friendly cup cake from our lovely RVN Meg while he was in recovery. Our nurses our so passionate and caring with your animals while they are with us and really treat your pets as if they were their own. We are very lucky to have such a brilliant team 💚

Rhinoscopy

As most of you are aware, it is Grass seed season. 🍃 This is a video of our Vet Brad perfroming a rhinoscopy (placing a camera up the nose) on a dog who had been sneezing, and you'll never guess what he found...⬇😦🍃 Just a quick reminder after your pets have been out in the long grass to check for their coat, underneath the legs, toes, eyes, ears and of course the nose. 🐶🐱🐾 If you think your pet may have a grass seed or you would simply like some advice, please call one of our clinics: 📞 Tewkesbury:01684 292244 Leckhampton:01242 234392 Bishops Cleeve : 01242 679880

This is a Aural haemotoma on a poor spaniels ear 👂 🐾 This chaps ear had sadly filled with a bloody fluid - this can happen either because of a ear infection or due to trauma. (See how swollen his ear is in the video) Our vet Sarah made a incision in the ear and drained the blood. Sarah then placed little drains to prevent the ear re-filling. This lovely spaniel is recovering very well, he was such a brave boy 💚🐾

How to get your pup used to Vets visits! 💚 ⬇️See video below to see our nurse Lotte explaining how you can ‘Vet Proof’ your puppy by checking their eyes, ears, teeth, paws and skin and placing them on a high service so it’s not so scary for them. This is something Lotte and our behaviourist Nurse Zoe discuss in our puppy parties which run two Monday’s a month at our Tewkesbury, Walton Cardiff clinic. 🐾 Ps. Isn’t Twiggy our model adorable 🥰?

Meet Dotty 🐾 🐱 Poor Dotty came to us not eating, vomiting and general lethargy. Dotty had a blood test which showed that her white blood cell count was low and this indicated there could be an infection somewhere. With intense nursing care, monitoring, intravenous fluid therapy and antibiotics she seemed to perk up and slowly started to eat again (as you can see in the video) 👩🏻‍⚕️ 👨🏻‍⚕️ It is so rewarding when you see a poorly patient start to get better even if it’s just eating a little bit of chicken 🍗 Dotty is now absolutely fine and is back to her normal self 🐾

Meet Luna 🐾 Luna came to our Walton Cardiff clinic today as she decided to stick her head in something she shouldn’t have and ended up with a fish hook in her nose (looking a bit like a nose piercing!) This resulted in poor Luna to be sedated for our vet Brad to remove the fish hook from her nose. 😨 Luckily for Luna she is absolutely fine and Brad our vet removed it with no trouble.😄 See video below ⬇️

Did you know we offer Laparoscopic Speys⁉️ A Laparoscopic Spey is a minimally invasive technique to neuter female dogs via keyhole surgery. The post operative recovery is much quicker and generally more comfortable for our fluffy friends. We offer this service at our Walton Cardiff, Bishops Cleeve and Leckhampton clinics. See the video below where our vet Brad explains more about this technique 🐾 Please give us a call at one of our branches to speak to a member of our team for more information ℹ️ 📞

Don’t forget we offer a bespoke home visit service where our lovely vet Sarah and wonderful veterinary nurse Nicki will come to your home and provide the great same care and attention to your pet but in the comfort of your own home 🏠 You may spot them in and around the Tewkesbury, Bishops Cleeve or Cheltenham area - if you see them give them a wave 👋🏼 Please call us on 01684 292244 / 01242 679880 to speak to a member of our team for more information 🚐 🐾 . .

Cats are creatures of habit, and they HATE it when their routines change - like when it gets too cold to go outside! Here are some handy hints to help keep your cat happy until spring.

Fleas can be so tricky to shift once they’ve found their way onto your pet and into your home, so prevention really is better than cure. The majority of their life-cycle is spent in the environment as eggs, larvae and pupae. They will be in your carpets and below skirtings just waiting to rear their ugly heads, even months later. A prescription flea treatment is your best form of defence, usually alongside environmental treatment. Ask us for more info.
