Check out these 2 gorgeous but cheeky Maine C***s, Bruce and Louis! 🐈‍⬛🐈

One of them ate half a paracetamol tablet, the owners weren’t sure which one was the culprit so they were both brought down to the practice where vomiting was induced, bloods ran and an antidote was given. They remained on I.V fluids for 24 hours.

⚠️Paracetamol is highly toxic to cats, prompt and aggressive treatment is needed as even a small amount can be fatal, once you see any signs of toxicity the damage is often irreversible ⚠️

Thanks to the proactiveness of the owners for bringing them straight down to the practice, despite it being a Sunday night, both the troublemakers have walked away without any long term damage and we still don’t know which one was the culprit! 🤷‍♀️

Meet Amy! 👋🏻

Our newest vet recruit, even though many of you have probably already met her as she has worked part time with us for many years whilst she has been studying at University. We’ve loved having her apart of our team, we couldn’t let her go anywhere else 🥰

Here’s Amy’s vet profile to get to know her better 😃

🌟Our Patient Of The Month for August!🌟

Gorgeous Whispa has been through a tough time with an aural haematoma.

An aural haematoma is a fluid filled swelling in an animals pinna (ear flap) caused by a burst blood vessel following trauma. This is usually due to an ear infection down the corresponding ear ca**l.

She has visited us several times over this month, initial treatment was to drain the swelling and treat the infection, unfortunately these commonly refill so Whispa came back to see us again. Frustratingly, ear drains can be tricky to keep in, every time Whispa shook her head the drain shot across the room! After a couple of failed attempts she ended up requiring surgery to rid her of the haematoma once and for all! A simple buttoning procedure to close the dead space and prevent refilling was carried out and Whispa went home rocking a lovely new piece of headwear, we think she looks very fashionable, don’t you? 💗

Happy International Cat Day to all the cats out there! 🐈🐈‍⬛

In honour of that, we’ve had the lovely Nancy in with us this week.
Brought in by her owners after they discovered a large wound on her belly, she was admitted for management of an extensive infected open wound. She received several sessions of cleaning the wound under sedation to remove the infected and diseased tissue.

She has been a purr-fect patient throughout 💗🥰

We are happy to report she has now been discharged home and will receive regular checks as the wound continues to heal.

Meet Miss Tiggywinkle 🦔

This little baby hedgehog was brought in by a member of the public, she is thought to be roughly 1- 2 weeks old. So teeny that her eyes haven’t yet opened ☺️
Nurse Megan has been taking her home with her on an evening, syringe feeding her lactose free milk and she is responsible for her lovely name 🥰

Stay tuned for regular baby pig updates on our stories!
