🐾 Welcome Back, Bubba! 🐾
Say hello to Bubba the Rottweiler — our big, gentle sweetheart who came in for a visit recently! 🩷

Bubba charmed the whole team (as always!) with her calm nature, wagging tail, and those signature Rottie snuggles. She was such a superstar for her exam and got plenty of treats and head scratches for being the goodest girl. 🎀✨

We love seeing this beautiful girl and keeping her happy and healthy!
Thanks for visiting, Bubba — can’t wait to see you again! 🐶💛

🐾 Sweet Senior Spotlight: Bailey 💛

This week we had the pleasure of seeing Bailey, an incredible 18-year-old golden soul, for her routine check-up with Dr. Siobhan.

Bailey may be a senior, but she’s still full of love, wisdom, and that gentle charm that comes with many years of being the best companion. ✨

Regular check-ups are especially important for our senior pets, and Bailey handled hers like the absolute superstar she is. 🌟

Here’s to keeping our golden oldies comfortable, healthy, and happy.
We love you, Bailey! 💕🐶

This week we’re saying “see you soon” to our wonderful vet Emer, who is finishing up at the end of the week as she begins her maternity leave🍼

Emer has been an incredible part of our team—her kindness, expertise, and unwavering compassion have touched so many pets and people alike. We’re going to miss her smiling face around the clinic, but we’re so excited for this next chapter in her life with her husband Alec & are already looking forward to her return next year👶🏼🩷🩵

😺 Keep Your Cat Safe — Vaccinate! 💉

Did you know your cat’s vaccines protect them from some really nasty viruses?
Two of the most important ones are FIV (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus) and FeLV (Feline Leukaemia Virus) — and both can be very dangerous if your cat catches them. 💔

🐾 FIV weakens the immune system — making it harder for your cat to fight off everyday infections.
🐾 FeLV can cause serious illness, anaemia, and even cancer.

These viruses can spread through bites, sharing bowls, or even grooming between cats — so even indoor cats can be at risk!

✨ The best protection? Vaccination and regular check-ups.
Getting your kitten vaccinated early (and keeping boosters up to date) helps keep them — and all cats in your community — healthy and happy

😊 We recommend starting your kittens vaccine from around 8 weeks & a top up is needed in 3-4 weeks after. Once that's done, we vaccinate them just once a year!

🚨 URGENT WARNING FOR HORSE OWNERS 🚨
Sycamore Poisoning Cases Rising – 3 Since Saturday

🍁 “Helicopter” seeds can travel FAR
Sycamore seeds can blow hundreds of metres from the parent tree — even into fields with no sycamores on site. Please don’t assume your pasture is safe.

⚠️ Atypical Myopathy is OFTEN FATAL
This condition progresses fast and survival rates are low without very early intervention.

Watch for signs:
• Sudden stiffness / unwilling to move
• Muscle tremors
• Rapid breathing
• Extreme weakness
• Dark brown urine
If you see ANY of these → Call us immediately.

How to reduce risk:
• Check fields daily for “helicopter” seeds + seedlings
• Fence off high-risk areas
• Avoid overgrazed/short pasture
• Provide plenty of forage

Please share to protect local horses.
Your awareness could save a life. 💚🐴

✅ Why vaccinate?
• Prevent serious — even fatal — diseases like tetanus, equine influenza, and strangles.

• Avoid costly treatments and unnecessary stress.

💡 Tip: Vaccinations should be done annually, or more often depending on your horse’s lifestyle and travel.

Your horse gives you their best every day — let’s return the favor. 💖

Vaccinations are an important first step in keeping your furry friends healthy and happy as they grow. 🌿💚
