🐾 Our Pet of the Month in November is Miya! ❤

Miya's breed is known as an Eurasier and she came into the practice for a mammary mass removal. We chose Miya for pet of the month due to how brave she was for her surgery and she was such a good girl for the team ❤
You might notice that Miya stands out due to the fact she has a black tongue, which is perfectly normal for her breed 👅

Well done Miya for being a star patient!

🔥 Remember It's Bonfire Night Coming Up 🎆

Bonfire night and the weeks surrounding it can mean lots of fireworks in the evenings, which can cause stress and anxiety in many pets.

What you can do ahead of time to help your pet stay safe and calm around fireworks:

Dog:
- Create a safe den - dogs won't understand that fireworks cannot harm them and generally will feel safer when they have a hiding space. You can help by making your dog a ‘safe haven’ or a ‘dog den’. If your dog already has a hiding place then this space can be further improved by making it as snug and secure for your dog as possible, for example by adding blankets or their favourite toys. If you are making your ‘dog den’ from scratch, try to do this a few weeks in advance before firework season begins, so that your dog has time to understand that it is a safe place to go to when fireworks start.
- Provide pets with pheromone support/calming tablets - pheromones are natural chemical ‘signals’ which are secreted by animals to communicate different types of messages to themselves or others. There is a ‘dog appeasing pheromone’ that can calm dogs in challenging situations such as when they hear fireworks. You can purchase pheromone products for your pet to provide them with this reassuring feeling to keep them calm on Bonfire Night. These products take time to work, so ensure you start administering them (depending on what product type you buy) at least 1 month before any stressful event. You can speak to your vet about what product will be the most effective for your pet. It’s a good idea to use a calming product close to your ‘dog den’ or hiding place.
- Ensure they’re microchippped - this is a legal requirement for dogs from 8 weeks old and will increase the chances of your dog being returned to you in case they get spooked and run off. Also ensure your dog has a collar and tag on, with contact details clearly displayed.
- Walk them during daylight hours - it’s a good idea to walk your dog early in the evening or during daylight hours when it is still light outside.

Cat:
- Make them identifiable: Cats will hide or run from scary sounds, so making sure your cat is identifiable if they get lost is critical. A microchip is the best way, but an engraved tag on a safe release collar is a great back up.
- Consider how you can best cat-proof your home: This includes making sure everyone in the house knows not to let your cat out, but also includes blocking off any dangerous areas your cat may squeeze into if they are scared. Your cat should still have free access to all safe areas in your home so they don't feel trapped.
- Make them a den: If your cat has a favourite hidey-hole, make sure it is accessible and has everything they need for a comfortable stay. If they don't already have a safe space, you can create a den by lining a box with blankets. Putting it up high will make it more appealing for them when they’re feeling anxious.
- Use a pheromone product/calming tablets: Pheremone products can create a safe feeling for your cat, and help to provide them with some reassurance in stressful situations. Owners can start to use these products at least one month before bonfire night. Ask at your vets to select the best calming products for your cat.
- Speak to your vet: If your cat gets very upset by fireworks, speak to your vet or behaviourist ahead of time. Noise phobias can take a long time to address so it’s important to start this process well in advance of bonfire night.

Small Furries:
Unfortunately there are no synthetic pheromones available for rabbits or guinea pigs to reduce stress-related behaviour like the ones for cats and dogs, but there are a number of other ways to help them ease their anxiety.
- If your rabbit or guinea pig's hutch is outdoors, it is a good idea to bring their hutch inside, if you can. Choose a quiet room or alternatively an unused garage or shed. If this is not possible you can partly cover hutches with blankets to provide some soundproofing and to block out the flashes of light. You can try to soundproof your house by closing windows and drawing curtains.
- Playing relaxing music or watching TV can also help to muffle the loud bangs fireworks create. To help your rabbits or guinea pigs feel comfortable, provide an extra safe and easily accessible place available in their hutch or cage to hide inside. This could be a cardboard box with holes cut in and plenty of bedding to burrow in.
- Both rabbits and guinea pigs are social animals and should be kept with a companion they are familiar with. Introducing a new companion should always be done in a controlled and safe way.
- Having a bonded pair can help ease the stress of fireworks, but isn’t for this reason alone. Have a chat with your vet, vet nurse about the best way and time to introduce a friend - but remember not to mix rabbits and guinea pigs.
- Whilst overfeeding your pet is never the answer, you can consider distracting your pet by giving them a new toy and offering their favourite food to keep them occupied.

If you have any worries about your pets during firework season, make sure you speak to your vet to see what you can do to keep your pets happy.

🎃 Halloween safety tips for pets 👻

Halloween is a time for fun and games for most families but it can pose certain threats and risks to our pets.

Creating a safe space for your pet:
It's a good idea to make sure your pet is used to the sounds of people knocking on the door and visiting the house to avoid distressing them.

It’s recommended that you also create a safe space for them to retreat to. Cats love to seek out cosy hiding places, so make sure they have a comfortable, quiet place to go in the house. If your cat is settled, don't try to cuddle them to keep them calm, just leave them where they are comfortable. Keep your dog in a cosy, quiet area of the house away from the door so they can't hear the knocking and regular visitors frequenting the house.

Move treats and decorations out of reach:
If you enjoy carving pumpkins, make sure you do so out of your pet's reach - pumpkins are a classic element of Halloween, and whilst they are non-toxic, they can cause stomach upsets if large amounts are eaten, so make sure to move pumpkins well out of your pet’s reach.

Popular Halloween treats like sweets and chocolate are toxic to pets, so should always be kept well out of reach. If your pet does manage to eat any treats you should contact your local vet for advice immediately.

If your child is playing with glowsticks, be sure that your pet doesn’t get a hold of them. The oily liquid found inside glowsticks can cause severe drooling and foaming at the mouth when chewed, therefore it’s imperative you keep them out of reach of your pet.

Protecting your pet from burns:
With candles being a big part of Halloween decorations, pets need to be kept away from anything they can injury themselves on. Using electric candles to minimise the risk of singed whiskers and more serious burns is a great swap in place of traditional candles.

Children also need to be careful with sparklers as these can be very frightening to some pets - therefore if you plan to use them, keep your pets indoors and dispose of them correctly in a bucket of cold water before throwing them away.

Microchipping:
Microchipping is a permanent solution that greatly increases the chances that a lost pet will be reunited safely with their owner.

Cats are especially more likely to flee a situation if they feel anxious, so if your cat doesn't come indoors, then make sure they are microchipped and their details are up-to-date in case they become spooked, run away and become lost. This also can be applied with dogs too, as if they are interested in constant comings and goings, they may head for the door and be excited by all the outdoor commotion.

Be careful with pet costumes:
Many pets can feel stress when wearing a costume - it’s recommended that unless your pet enjoys wearing a costume, you don’t put them in one. If your pet does enjoy wearing a costume, ensuring that they do not limit their movements, sight, or ability to breathe.

Check the costumes for any choking hazards, and ensure the costume fits correctly - any ill-fitting outfits can get twisted on external objects which can lead to injury.

🐍 It's Reptile Awareness Day - 21st October 🦎

Reptile Awareness Day 2024 is a day dedicated to celebrating and raising awareness about the incredible world of reptiles. Reptiles, which include snakes, turtles, lizards, and crocodiles, are fascinating creatures that play vital roles in ecosystems around the globe.

While the history of reptiles may go hundreds of millions of years back, National Reptile Awareness Day has an unfortunately short history in comparison. Additionally, it wasn’t really until 1966 when the first Endangered Species Act was passed that awareness of the needs and threats facing reptiles (or any animal, for that matter) started to make its way into our cultural mainstream.
With the passing of that act, a mid-century push toward conservation started taking the forefront. Updates were passed in 1967 and 1969. Additionally, in 1967, the Environmental Defense Fund created their historical efforts to ban DDT from usage in the United States. Much of this was movement was sparked by Rachel Carson’s seminal book, Silent Spring, which documented the adverse effects pesticides and other chemicals have on the environment.
Reptile Awareness Day wouldn’t exist without the efforts of that movement. In fact, many reptiles wouldn’t be around today without the help of the Endangered Species Act. While Reptile Awareness Day may have a small history compared to its subjects, its still part of a historically important movement to help protect and conserve all species of animals.

💚 There are many ways to celebrate National Reptile Awareness Day, such as donating to a reptile conservation, visiting a national park, or learning to identify reptiles 💚

Ember sat beautifully for us behind the photo booth for her picture to be taken but her dad was a little camera shy, so we had to crop the photo a little 🤣

She was such a good girl, we had to give her several treats ❤

🌙 Darker Nights Approaching 🌙

As the evenings get darker earlier, there are a number of considerations for our pets.

When walking your dog in the dark it’s essential that you and your dog are visible. LED collars, leads and harnesses are a great way to ensure your pet can be seen in the dark. Our friends at Pets at Home have a range of reflective products available on their website.

For cats, it's best to keep them indoors during these dark evenings, as they cannot be seen by drivers making traffic accidents a big risk. Neutering may also stop cats roaming from home.

🐶 Lungworm in dogs 🐶

Lungworm is a parasite that can be deadly to dogs if ingested. Fortunately, there are ways to reduce your dog’s chances of catching lungworm, by following some simple but essential precautions before you head outdoors or let them play in the garden.

Lungworms use multiple animals to help complete its lifecycle, with dogs and foxes as the primary hosts, and slugs, snails and even frogs as their intermediate hosts.

Lungworms are short worms, only reaching 2.5cm in length as adults, which live within the chambers of the heart of our pets, and in the artery that connects the heart to the lungs. Despite their main home being in the heart, these worms are called lungworms as they cause mainly lung-related signs such as coughing.

Lungworm Prevention:
Although you can’t stop your dog being exposed to lungworms, there are lots of options for preventing a lungworm infection developing.

- Regular worming treatments. Worming treatments usually come in the form of tablets or spot-ons, and may manage a range of parasites including lungworms. The best parasite protocol for your dog will depend on you, your dog, your lifestyle and even the season, and your vet can help you decide which regime works best for you. However you choose to manage worms in your dog, make sure to speak to a vet about the best anti-parasitic on offer, as many over the counter treatments have poor efficacy.
- Picking up your dog’s faeces quickly will help prevent the spread of lungworm.
- Removing toys and bowls from the garden overnight so they are not exposed to slugs and snails.
- Changing the water in water bowls frequently.

If you have any questions about the lungworm treatments offered at Warminster Vets 4 Pets, please contact the practice on 01985 853970

❤ It's World Mental Health Day - 10th October ❤

The day has been created to help spread more awareness and reduce the stigma surrounding mental health matters. Mental health can affect anyone, anywhere, and at any time, which is why the theme for World Mental Health Day 2024 is 'Mental Health is a Universal Human Right'.

Did you know......

Veterinary surgeons in the UK are three to four times more likely than the general population to die by su***de (Platt et al., 2010). The effect of a su***de on families, friends and colleagues can be devastating. Every su***de is a tragedy, and for many people bereaved by su***de, the impact is long lasting. There aren’t accurate figures for the su***de rate among veterinary nurses but there are some aspects of their work that suggest that they also may be at risk.

The stigma associated with mental illness often acts as a barrier to accessing care, including mental health services, and indeed stigma can increase people’s reluctance to even discuss the topic in the first place. According to the results of a 2012 study of veterinary surgeons with a history of suicidal thoughts or behaviour half the participants had not talked with anyone about their problems because they felt guilty or ashamed.

At Warminster Vets 4 Pets we try to create a positive, healthy environment to work in and to help with this, we have a qualified mental health first aider for staff.

Can we please remind people to be kind to staff at the practice, as we have a zero tolerance to abuse policy when it comes to our colleagues.

When Kelly from our Colton store's Pets Grooming salon discovered a lump on the tail of nine-year-old Rufus she suspected something wasn't right, so alerted his owners Les and Andrea so they could get it checked out. They brought him to Vets for Pets Leeds Colton where it was confirmed he had a cancerous tumour which needed surgery.

Les, who adopted Rufus from Dogs Trust in Leeds as a puppy, said: “Rufus is such a big part of our life; we’re absolutely besotted with him. We probably wouldn’t have noticed the lump if not at the groomers as the tail isn’t somewhere you would usually stroke and feel. Kelly loves Rufus and really looks after him, so we want to say a big thanks for spotting it. Who'd have known what would have happened if she hadn’t noticed.”

Rufus had to have his tail removed, but is now making a good recovery. He's been visiting Kelly for a groom every six weeks for the last three years. She said: “You get to know everything about a dog as you groom them. I’ve discovered similar things before on other dogs so I mentioned it to the owners so they could get it checked out. Dogs are my life and you do worry; I’m so pleased they caught it. Now he’s got a fully docked tail like a little bunny rabbit. It’s lovely and suits him – when he gets washed he wiggles his bum.”

Arthur's owner Louise says he "looked like a brand-new tortoise" after having his beak filed at Sutton in Ashfield Vets4Pets.

Louise adopted the four-year-old Horsefield Tortoise from a family member in October. Although she has had other pets, Arthur is her first tortoise, so she has been doing some research on how to best care for him.

Louise said: "I noticed Arthur's beak was unusually long, so I brought him in to Vets for Pets; I bring all my pets there. When he came out, I thought 'you beautiful boy, look at you – you look so handsome!"

Vet Steph, who looked after Arthur, says that tortoise beaks continuously grow and normally grind down themselves while they're eating. She said: "Arthur needed a little help as his jaw isn't perfectly aligned; his lower jaw is further out than his top jaw, so I filed it around half a centimetre. He was really good; a real cutie."

Owner Claire says she couldn't be more grateful to Vets4Pets Hamilton after their quick diagnosis saved the sight of six-year-old Alba.

Claire knew there was something terribly wrong with her miniature dachshund cross when she called her in from the back garden last summer and Alba ran headfirst into a closed patio door. She rushed her to the vets, where investigations led the team to diagnose her with uveitis – an eye condition which causes inflammation of the middle layer of the eye.

Claire said: "It all happened so suddenly; Alba must have heard my voice and guessed where to go. It was quite scary seeing how bad she was. We couldn't be more grateful for the team in Hamilton spotting the uveitis as quickly as they did, otherwise Alba would have gone blind within a matter of days. Their knowledge saved Alba's sight. I still can't believe it happened. It's taken months of treatments, but it's such a relief to have our girl back to being her funny, bossy self."

Vet Neil, one of the team who treated Alba, said: "Alba's pupil was really narrow and wouldn't respond to light properly, which can be a sign of uveitis. Once we had ruled out other conditions, we were able to get her to an eye specialist for ongoing treatment. She's now doing really well."

Ducky's owner Antonia was in a state of panic when she saw a fox had dug its way into the field where she keeps him – killing two of her other ducks and chickens.

Antonia was about to move her brood into their pen for the evening when she saw what had happened and noticed that Ducky had severe bite wounds under his wing. She rushed him to Vets4Pets Vets Milton Keynes for emergency surgery – and after having his wound stitched up the one-year-old duck is now making a good recovery.

Antonia said: "I was so worried. You don’t often hear of ducks recovering from fox attacks, but there is something about Ducky and the way he was so brave. I'm sure he was protecting a lady duck, as he's a bit of a romantic. It's the first time we've gone to Vets for Pets, and the team were amazing; they've done an incredible job."

Vet Becca, who treated Ducky, said: "He's a really lucky duck, as it was quite a big wound. When he first came in, he was understandably subdued and quiet but when he came back for his stitches to be taken out, he wanted to explore and tuck his head into everyone’s shoulders."

Well done to the team at Vets4Pets Guildford who've been awarded a silver level certificate for being a rabbit-friendly clinic.

After head veterinary nurse Ella noticed that more customers were bringing in rabbits the practice took a series of steps to give them as stress-free an experience as possible. Ella, who also fosters rescue dogs in her spare time, said: "There was a long list of things that we needed to prove that we did from making sure the rabbits are kept separate from other animals and not booked in at the same time as barking dogs, to providing heated kennels for those who need to stay in, and using special equipment made especially for rabbits."

Practice manager Kevin said: "All of our vets have plenty of experience with rabbits we have some real rabbit geeks here, so it was a big thing to us. There are so many good people in this world and I'm so proud to be around them."

Beautiful Bear was born deaf, so he's learned to follow his owner Lisa's visual commands.

Lisa, who shops at our Tamworth store – "it's my second home!" – got two-year-old Bear as a kitten and suspected he was deaf when he didn't respond to her voice. She had it confirmed by her vet soon after. She said: "He was very scatty, and scared of people he didn’t recognise. He wasn’t bothered by loud noises like my other cat Emily and when I came home from work he wouldn’t hear the door open.

"He's doing really well though. I try to do some sign language with him – I point at him and do a solid hand sign at him to stop. He picks up on vibrations and scents too. He meows, making a really loud chirping sound which I’ve never heard a cat do before, and he’s always rubbing his head against my legs and following me everywhere. I was advised not to let him out because he wouldn’t hear cars or other dangers, so he comes outside with me every morning to have a sniff around the garden and always comes straight back in." Bear and Lisa's other cat Emily are on Instagram as

Ten-year-old Dutch rabbit Alfie has been visiting vet Kate at Vets4pets Wolverhampton for dental treatment for the last eight years – and she says he's such a loveable character that he's become "part of the family".

He's one of the oldest rabbits treated by Kate and the team, and she says his longevity is down to the care and love he gets from his owner Tracy and her family. Kate said: "Alfie is famous in this practice – everyone knows him. We and his family are dedicated to making sure her little old man is happy. The beautiful thing about being a vet or vet nurse is you build these relationships with the owners and their pets – they become your surrogate pets."

Tracy's been keeping rabbits all her life, and says that having space and routine is key. She said: "Alfie is an old man now and has a routine. He goes into a hutch at night and is let out in the morning. He's out all day and has his favourite spots in the house. We clean him out every day and give him a lot of attention. When he was younger he would follow us around; if I was clearing a cupboard out he would be in the cupboard to help. Now he's old and wants to be warm and watch instead. I can't thank Kate and the practice enough. Kate's been fantastic with him."

Eight-year-old Winnie the Schnauzer cross is running around like a puppy again thanks to laser treatment and physiotherapy after two successful knee operations at Vets for Pets Basildon.

Worried owner Tracy brought Winnie in to the practice after she collapsed on a walk last year – and the team discovered the cruciate ligament in a knee had ruptured. She’s since had ops on two knees and is on a recovery plan led by vet physiotherapist Izzy.

Tracy said: "Winnie has had a tough year with 15 teeth removed, two cruciate ligament operations and two bouts of pancreatitis but thankfully she's hardy. She’s treated fabulously at the Basildon practice. Izzy is great with her – she totally relaxes in her hands and does little snores with her eyes open. Winnie has a new lease of life again and is running around like a puppy."

Izzy said: "When pets have surgery or injure themselves they move differently which causes them to be sore in other places. Winnie has laser therapy then a massage to help the healing process. Laser treatment is a specialist service that not enough people know about – it can help in so many ways after an operation.”

Veterinary nurse Mel from Vets4Pets Bristol Longwell Green loves cats so much she's helped the practice make a number of improvements to give cats as stress-free an experience as possible when they're brought in.

Mel, who has an Advanced Certificate in Feline Behaviour for Veterinary Professionals, helped introduce facilities like a separate feline waiting area and cattery and the use of quiet clippers – and the practice now has a silver level certificate for being a cat-friendly clinic. She said: "I love dogs but I'm really a cat person. Cats can be misunderstood which can lead to them having quite a stressful life, so if we can make things easier for them and help people understand what cats need then everyone will be happier.

"As animal lovers there's always more to learn and understand about what makes them happy. Enrichment at the home is important for a happy cat – and as cats are naturally solitary animals if you live in a multi-cat household it's important to understand what they need. The rule is to have a resource per cat, plus one spare. So if you have two cats you should have three feeding stations, three litter trays and three scratch posts spread around the house so they have the opportunity to move around to wherever they want to go. Scratching is as natural a thing for cats to do as going out hunting is, so if they're unable to go out it's about providing the chance for them to behave as naturally as possible."

🐾 Meet Ziggy 🐾 Ziggy visited the practice recently while on holiday with his pawrents due to a very sore looking eye. Tamsin was able to ascertain from a history taken that as he likes to occasionally stick his head out of the window, he could have a foreign body under his third eyelid. After a quick sedation, we were able to find a grass seed and remove it to get Ziggy on the mend with some additional medications. We would advise owners to take care letting their pets stick their heads out of moving vehicles to avoid injuries such as grass seeds.

DR BRAMBLES CLINIC 🩺 - GRASS SEEDS 🌱 It’s grass seed season so Dr Bramble thought she would show you how to check for grass seeds after you come back off a walk with your pups 🐶 1. Check the paws 🐾 Grass seeds can bury themselves in between paw pads, toes and nestle within paw fur! By checking them you can hopefully get any seeds removed before they bury too deep and a trip to the vet is required. 2. Check ears It is important to go careful when checking ears, gently lift to check the underside of the ear and at the beginning of the canal. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO PUT FINGERS OR TWEEZERS IN THE EAR AS THIS CAN CAUSE MORE DAMAGE AND CAN BE UNCOMFORTABLE FOR YOUR PET. If you are concerned a seed in in your pets ears make an appointment with the vet as they have specialist tools to check 🩺 3. Armpits & Groin Search the surrounding armpit and groin area for any seeds that may have latched onto your pet after a walk. Again by checking this you may be able to remove the seed before it nestles too deep. Always go careful when checking for grass seeds as if they do have one buried somewhere they can be incredibly sore 💕 If you have any concerns about grass seeds please call the team on 01985 853970.
