Our pets are part of the family and we want to share fun experiences with them – including taking them on holiday!
While this often results in great fun and wonderful memories, there are a few things to consider first. A bit of planning beforehand goes a long way towards making it a positive experience for everyone.

Heat stress starts as a reversible condition, but if not managed it will develop to heat stroke, which is extremely dangerous.
Unlike us, pets have no understanding that hot weather can be harmful. We control their environment, their access to water and their exercise, and they can’t speak up if they start feeling unwell.

Sunny Stelly enjoying the rays! ☀️

Just look at those pearly whites too, for an older gal her teeth are great, as her human makes sure she brushes them, and she has regular dentals! 😁

Remember you get fixed price dentals when you are part of our Healthy Pet Club 🦷

We would like to congratulate one of our vets Victoria, who has recently finished five years of additional study and case logs, and been awarded ‘Advanced Practitioner’ status by the RCVS in the field of Diagnostic Imaging. This means she is able to accept referrals from other veterinary practices, for patients who require abdominal ultrasounds, echocardiographs or radiographs. These are performed at our Lisieux Way branch.

There are 50 advanced practitioners in diagnostic imaging in the UK.

What is an advanced practitioner:

‘Advanced Practitioner’ status is an official recognition of a veterinary surgeon’s particular knowledge and skills in a designated field of veterinary practice. Those on the list hold a postgraduate qualification in their designated area of interest, in addition to their initial veterinary degree, and have also demonstrated that they are keeping up to date with their knowledge and competence in their chosen area. RCVS Advanced Practitioners are not specialists, but accreditation as an Advanced Practitioner provides the public with additional assurances that the individual has undertaken further study and ongoing professional development in a particular area of clinical practice.

Well done Victoria! We are lucky to have you. 👏👏👏

It isn't just your pets we care for, we also get copious amounts of wildlife brought into us! 🦆🦉🦔🐿🐦‍⬛🦡🦢

Whilst we are happy to take a look at wildlife and do what we can if they are injured. The best thing to do if you find any wildlife needing assistance, would be to contact West Hatch Wildlife Centre or Secret World Wildlife Rescue directly for advice. These rescues have specific experts in the field who can assess, and hopefully recover & rehabilitate everything from birds to foxes, to badgers and hedgehogs.

Here is 'Jason Crowmoa' - a crow fledgling who fell out a nest and came away from the nest location, he was not quite ready to fend for himself, due to the lack of flight feathers. One of our team took Jason out to West Hatch Wildlife Centre to be rehabilitated back into the wild 😊

🪰Flystrike🪰

Flystrike happens more often in warm weather, and in rabbits who have soiled fur (often due to poor diet, obesity or arthritis).

Throughout the spring and summer rabbits must be checked twice daily and any soiled fur cleaned. If you find any sign of fly eggs or maggots you must arrange for your rabbit to see a vet as soon as possible.

For more information about Flystrike: vetcollection.co.uk/health/conditions/flystrike

💉Microchipping💉

Microchipping rabbits is not a legal requirement but is strongly recommended. Rabbits are excellent escape artists and, if they manage to escape the garden, it can be difficult to identify where they have come from.

Find out more about getting your rabbit microchipped here: vetcollection.co.uk/health/microchipping-rabbits

*FOUND CAT*
Entire, black male cat brought into us, not chipped. Found near Taunton recycling centre. Proof of ownership required.

🦷Dental Disease🦷

Since you cannot check your rabbit’s teeth at home, it is important to look out for signs of dental disease.

There are many things that you can look out for that might indicate that your rabbit has some sort of dental health issue. If you notice any of these signs, it is important that you bring your rabbit to your vet for an oral assessment as soon as possible. Stopping eating altogether is an emergency.

👩‍⚕️Neutering👨‍⚕️

Neutering means removing the reproductive organs; this is either the ovaries in females (known as spaying) or the testicles in males (known as castration). Neutering is a
routine procedure that does not require overnight hospitalisation, with an average recovery time of 5-10 days.

Find out more about the benefits and risks of neutering your
rabbit here: vetcollection.co.uk/health/should-i-neuter-myrabbit

🐰THIS WEEK IS RABBIT AWARENESS WEEK!🐰
We will be sharing tips and advice for you and your long eared friend.

💉Vaccinations💉

Both indoor and outdoor rabbits require vaccinations to keep them safe from infectious disease. Young rabbits are particularly vulnerable to serious illnesses, so it’s important to get them vaccinated early.

Rabbits can be vaccinated from five weeks old and will need yearly booster vaccinations throughout their life to maintain immunity.

Fifty shades of Labrador 🤣😍

Another happy ending... 🥰

This lovely girl Minstrel had been missing from The Castle Green Hotel for a number of months, you may even recognise her as she was all over Facebook for months, with the owners doing their best to try and find her. Naturally the owners, the staff at Castle Green and their regular clients were beside themselves, as they did not know if she had wandered, was taken, or worse.

Thankfully someone handed her into us yesterday, and as the microchip details were kept up-to-date by the owner, we were able to reunite them back together again! 😍👏

Please remember that it is now a legal requirement for cats to be microchipped. If your cat(s) are already chipped, please make sure your details are kept up-to-date.

May marks Veterinary Nurse Awareness month - and this month, we are championing the incredible nurses in the veterinary profession worldwide! A huge thank you for everything you do for the nations pets. Thank you to Lynne, Louise, Jess, Georgia, Jade, Lia, Alex, Paige, and Ellie for everything you do, your hard work and love for animals does not go unnoticed. 🩷

You may never have seen behind the consultation room in a veterinary practice. So take a look at the work our vets and nurses do on the front line every day to look after animals in veterinary practices, hospitals, in the field and on call - so that they receive the best possible care. Thanks to Molly Case for the poem you have written about our profession. #careforanimals #veterinaryprofession

Let's take a look under the microscope 🔬What did you think these creepy crawlies were at first glance? 👀 These are Ocodectes Cynotis, commonly known as ear mites. They are very tiny parasites that infest the ear canal and surrounding skin. Unfortunately most cats and dogs can be susceptible to them and they can cause intense ear irritation and discomfort, but they are easily treated! Signs to look out for would be, excessive head shaking, itching of ears, neck and head, sometimes the presence of an ear discharge that is waxy and dark, or an unpleasant odour coming from ears. 😵‍💫 If you ever have any concerns about your pets ears, or think ear mites may be a problem, please do not hesitate to contact us. 📧📞

Do you remembering seeing Bilbo on our page yesterday? This is the very satisfying video of one of our vets carefully removing the hard piece of straw that was lodged up his nose 🐽

Happy Monday! 🎉 We hope you have all had a lovely weekend with your pets! Here is Angus the Briard pretending he has a brain, we hope this video makes you laugh as much as we did 🧠🤣

With autumn approaching, we are still very much living in our favourite summer memories! This is Otto the cocker (not be confused with a swimming otter) having the best time. 😍🌞🍂🐾💦

❗️❗️❗️❗️WARNING - VERY GRAPHIC VIDEO❗️❗️❗️❗️ - Please keep scrolling if you are squeamish. Shadow came to visit us with swelling under his chin, our vet Rachel checked him over, and quite quickly came to the conclusion that we would need to sedate Shadow, and flush the swollen area. As you can see from our video, the swelling was being caused by a build up of pus, where an abscess had formed, we also found a multitude of tiny grass seeds which may have caused this. Shadow is now on the mend, and what a good boy he was! 😍👏

This very gorgeous girl was feeling a little needy after her spay, and of course, patient care (and cuddles) is of highest priority! 😍🐱💖

It’s harvest mite season! Harvest mites (Neotrombicula autumnalis) are little orange mites (see the comments for a photo of what they look like on your dog). They are often found in grass and woodland areas and love to attach to your dogs feet where they feed from them! They cause red skin little bumps and a lot of itching and inflammation. Luckily they are fairly easy to treat! So if you notice your dogs are really itchy around their feet and legs you can check between their toes for these little mites! Or bring them into us and we can have a look and prescribe treatment!
