Why are white cats more likely to be deaf?👂Inherited deafness that is present from birth is strongly linked to the W (White) gene and blue eye colour in cats. White cats with blue eyes are 3-5 times more likely to be deaf, than a cat with non-blue eyes.

Cats of any colour may experience hearing loss for other reasons, such as trauma, infection, and aging. Do you care for a cat with hearing loss? Here are some top cat friendly tips to support them👇

🐾 Deaf cats can be easily startled. Always approach them slowly from the front and offer an outstretched softly closed hand, allowing them to initiate contact.

🐾 Cat proofed gardens or catios are a safer option for cats with outdoor access that would not be able to hear hazards, such as vehicles.

🎃Halloween - trick , treat or toxin?

Halloween is an exciting time of year. However, it can also cause problems for our pets with sweets and decorations around the home and outside. If you are concerned, call us for advice.

🎃Glow sticks - when chewed, have a very bitter taste which can cause some distress and dribbling. A drink of water will help to ease this.

🎃Chocolate - affects the heart rate and central nervous system and can cause gastrointestinal upset depending on the quantity ingested and the type of chocolate. The darker the chocolate, the greater the risk.

🎃Raisins - risk of kidney injury even if only a small number are ingested.

🎃Chewing gum - sugar-free gum often contains high levels of a sweetener called xylitol which can cause hypoglycaemia and also liver disease.

🎃Pumpkins - can cause sickness and diarrhoea if ingested. Mouldy pumpkins carry a risk of tremorgenic mycotoxins, so please don’t leave pumpkins to rot.

🎃Candles - risk of burns. If ingested, the wax will usually pass through but there is a risk of obstruction. Vomiting and diarrhoea may also occur.
Have a safe and happy Halloween! 👻 🧙‍♀️
