Pet Desexing

Desexing is a straightforward operation but most pets need around two weeks to recover. This is the case for both genders and for both cats and dogs. You can often use your pet insurance to cover the cost of the procedure, but you need to check the specific terms of your policy. The procedure is safe and won’t change your much-loved pet’s personality but can help to tackle some unwanted behaviours such as aggression in male dogs or yowling in female cats.

Microchipping

Microchipping your cat or dog is a smart way to keep them safe. Once it’s done chips can last for decades so you have peace of mind throughout your pet’s life. Pet insurance can often pay for the cost of microchipping but check with your insurance provider. Microchipping is a quick procedure that doesn’t cause pain to your pet – there should be no more pain than a standard vaccination.

Flea/pest Control & Treatment

Fleas are irritating for you and your pet but they can sometimes lead to more serious complications in dogs. Both cats and dogs can also be allergic to fleas. Effective control and treatment help to protect your pet. Flea and pest treatment options for dogs include oral sprays, collars, and topical treatments. For cats, choices for treatment include oral collars, shampoos, and topical treatments. Many treatments are effective within 24 hours.

Pet Grooming

Professional grooming provides pets with numerous health benefits. This helps to ventilate their coats and remove old hair, as well as cut long nails that might be painful for the animal. Groomers can also help by identifying signs of ear infections or other health issues. With the use of specialist tools and products, grooming leaves your pet clean and more comfortable. Dog rooming can take over two hours, depending on the size and condition of the pet.

Quality Pet Food

Your pet’s health might affect the type of diet they should follow. Choosing food that’s tailored to their health needs can improve their wellbeing. Specialist cat and dog food is available for a variety of conditions, including allergies, digestive care, dental care, and weight management. The nutrition that cats and dogs need changes throughout their lifetime, so you can also boost their health with specially formulated food for puppies, kittens, and elderly pets.

Desexing your pet may reduce their aggression and help make them more relaxed, focused and happy. Not only that, your pet’s metabolism may slow down but weight gain can be avoided by ensuring adequate exercise and a controlled, healthy diet.

As pet owners, we’re responsible for the health and wellbeing of our dogs or cats. Vaccinations stimulate our pet’s antibodies to fight disease.

Although it’s not illegal to not vaccinate your pet, we highly recommend you do.

Some diseases aren’t just fatal to your pets but can risk infecting humans too. Help protect your pet and family against preventable diseases and infections by getting your dog or cat vaccinated.

Our veterinary clinic is capable of performing a variety of surgical procedures. This can include routine surgeries like spaying and neutering and more advanced orthopaedic and soft tissue surgeries.

Preparing your pet for a vet visit is key to a smooth, stress-free experience. Begin by familiarising your pet with its carrier. Keep the carrier open and place treats or toys inside to foster positive associations. Handling your pet’s ears, paws and mouth at home can help them become accustomed to being examined. Depending on the appointment type, it may be helpful to withhold food for a few hours, following your vet’s instructions. Bringing a familiar toy or blanket might also provide comfort during the visit. Stay calm, as pets tend to mirror their owners’ emotions and your calmness may help them feel more at ease.

Regular check-ups are essential for your pet’s well-being. Generally, bringing your pet for a check-up is recommended once a year. However, the frequency may vary based on your pet’s age, breed and health condition. Puppies and kittens often require more frequent visits for vaccinations and growth monitoring. Older pets or those with chronic conditions might also need more frequent evaluations. Regular visits allow for early detection of potential health issues, helping ensure your pet remain healthy and active.

Regular check-ups play a significant role in maintaining your pet’s well-being. Generally, bringing your pet in for an annual check-up is considered beneficial. However, the optimal frequency may vary depending on your pet’s age, breed and overall health condition. Puppies and kittens often require more frequent visits for vaccinations and monitoring their growth, while older pets or those with chronic conditions may need evaluations more regularly. Routine visits help with the early detection of potential health issues, which is crucial for keeping your pet healthy and active.
