Have you ever seen your cat breathing through their mouth? Unlike dogs, this is not normal behaviour, so please contact us if you see this. 📲

While dogs will often pant as a way to lose heat, cats regulate their body temperature differently. If your cat is using their mouth to breathe, this could mean they are either very stressed or experiencing breathing difficulties.

As there are a lot of severe health issues that might cause open mouth breathing in cats, such as heart problems, respiratory illness or even some types of cancer, veterinary assessment is vital, so don’t hesitate to book an appointment.

Ticks can transmit harmful diseases like Lyme disease, so it’s important to remove them as soon as possible.

👉️Use a tick-removal tool or fine-tipped tweezers, sliding the tool under the tick as close to your pet’s skin as you can.

👉 Twist gently in one direction until the tick releases itself. Avoid pulling upwards, squeezing, or crushing the tick, as this can leave parts of it behind.

👉️Once removed, drop the tick in alcohol and clean the bite area with antiseptic. Make a note of the date and keep an eye on your pet for any signs of infection, such as redness, swelling, lethargy, or a lack of appetite.

If you’re unsure about removing a tick or notice unusual symptoms, get in touch with us for advice!

Dog theft is a heartbreaking crime that affects many families every year. 💔

It’s important to take steps to protect your beloved companion, especially if they’re pure breed dogs. Here are our top tips:

✔ Never leave your dog tied up outside shops or unattended in the garden.

✔ Make sure your dog is microchipped, and keep the details up to date.

✔ Ensure your dog always wears a collar with your contacts, but without their name (this can make it easier for someone to befriend them).

✔ Be cautious about sharing your dog’s location or routines on social media.

✔ Consider getting a GPS tracker for your dog’s collar and a security camera if you keep your dog in your garden.

Did you know that heart disease affects up to 15% of all dogs? 🫀

Heart disease is especially common in our golden oldies!

There are several causes that can lead to heart problems, with the two most common being enlargement of the heart (dilated cardiomyopathy) and a faulty heart valve (mitral or tricuspid regurgitation).

Keep an eye out for the signs in the carousel and if you feel your furry friend isn’t doing so well, don’t hesitate to give us a call!

Rare diseases aren’t exclusive to people; they can also affect our pets. While these conditions are uncommon, early detection can make all the difference.

Here are some signs to look out for:

👉 Unexplained weight loss

👉 Persistent fatigue (more than their usual “I need a nap after my nap”)

👉 Odd lumps, bumps, or anything that seems out of place

👉 Unusual behaviour (you know your pet best)

It’s important to keep in mind that these are all general signs of illness and do not let us know anything about the problem itself.

If you spot something unusual, give us a call. 🩺🔍

High-rise syndrome is a term often used to describe the injuries sustained by cats falling from buildings higher than two storeys (7–9 metres). 🏢

Cats have a natural inclination to perch on high places and enjoy spending time watching the outside world from windows or balconies.

Even though it’s often said that our feline friends have nine lives and always land elegantly on their feet, high-rise falls commonly result in severe injuries that need emergency treatment, such as broken bones, facial and chest trauma, and internal bleeding. Too often, these injuries can be fatal if not treated right away! 🚑

If you have a cat, please keep your windows closed or consider getting a safety net! Let’s keep them safe and away from the emergency room, so don’t forget to share this post to make other cat owners aware!
