🐢💚 Crash 💚🐢

Crash visited us yesterday for her regular beak trim, she is such a good girl we can just do this procedure under minimal restraint! Tortoises should naturally keep their beaks trimmed by what they eat and the environment they’re in, however sometimes they need a little help from us!

Signs of an overgrown beak include:

✨ Visual overgrowth
✨ Abnormal beak wear
✨ Difficulty picking up food
✨ Difficulty eating or reduced appetite

We will see you again soon Crash! 💚

We are going to be hosting our first puppy party for our clients on the 19th June completely free of charge! It will start at 6.30pm and be around an hour long, we will be answering any questions new puppy owners may have and go through a variety of topics such as:

🩷 Neutering
🩷 Nutrition
🩷 Walking

This party allows for a controlled setting for your puppy to also socialise with other puppies and owners. All puppies will also walk away with a party bag with free goodies and lots of information packs! To attend your puppies must be fully vaccinated and under 16 weeks old, there is limited space at the parties as we want to keep it a controlled and calm environment.

🐦‍⬛🪹 Fledgling Season 🪹🐦‍⬛

As we enter peak fledgling season, we’re receiving more and more calls about baby birds spotted on the ground. This is completely normal! At this stage, fledglings have feathers and are beginning to leave the nest as part of their natural development. It’s common to see them on the ground, but don’t worry—their parents are usually close by and still caring for them.

Before picking up a young bird and bringing it to a rescue centre or vet, please observe from a safe distance. Fledglings have a much better chance of survival in the wild, with their parents, than they do in human care.

To help you decide what to do, here’s a helpful flow chart from the RSPCA that guides you through when intervention is necessary.

Thank you for helping protect our wild birds this season! 🐣🌿

✨Veterinary Nurse Awareness Month✨

Last but certainly not least, meet Katy—our wonderful weekend PCA! Katy plays a key role in keeping the practice running smoothly during our out-of-hours service. She helps maintain a clean and safe environment, supports the nurses with emergency appointments, and even answers the phone when things get busy. One of her favourite parts of the job is watching our inpatients recover and getting to see them head home feeling much better.

In this photo, Katy is fully gowned up while cleaning our isolation unit—a critical task that helps prevent the spread of infectious illnesses. This deep clean is carried out three times to ensure everything is fully sterilised and safe.

✨Veterinary Nurse Awareness Month✨

During this month we want to give a big shoutout to our amazing PCAs! They play such an important role in keeping our days running smoothly—cleaning the practice, sterilising surgical equipment, helping with patient handling, caring for our strays, and so much more behind the scenes.

One of our incredible PCAs is Charlotte, who joined us last year and has become such a valued part of the team. She loves spending time with our strays, helping them feel safe and loved, and supporting the nurses with inpatient care—like taking them outside for toileting and giving them a little extra TLC.

In this photo, Charlotte is grooming Finn, one of our current strays, to make sure he’s comfortable and cared for during his stay with us. We’re so grateful for everything our PCAs do every day!

Thank you for your continued support! 🐾

☀️Beat the heat!☀️

As the weather heats up, it’s important to keep our furry friends safe and comfortable. Below are some helpful posters with tips on how to help your pets stay cool and beat the heat!

Other fun ways to help your pets stay cool include making frozen treats or providing enrichment activities that keep them mentally stimulated without too much physical exertion. A little creativity goes a long way in keeping them happy and healthy during the warmer months!
