“Why has my cat suddenly started urinating outside of their litter tray?” 🐱

An alteration in feline toileting habits may occur due to:
🔎 A urinary health problem, such as cystitis (bladder inflammation)
🦴 A general health issue, such as arthritis that makes it difficult for the cat to climb into their litter tray and squat comfortably
😿 Behavioural issues, such as anxiety

If your cat has suddenly changed their weeing habits, it’s recommended to have them assessed promptly by one of our knowledgeable vets, who can help get to the “bottom” of your cat’s issue.

Does my dog need regular ear cleaning? 👂🐶

Healthy ears generally only require an occasional gentle wipe out if they become wet, sandy or muddy.

However, some dogs may require routine ear cleaning if they:
💡 Naturally produce a large amount of wax
💡 Have hairy ear canals that tend to get matted and cause issues
💡 Have an underlying issue that affects their ear health, such as skin allergies

If your dog’s ears ever develop unusual discharge, or are red, smelly or sore, it’s best to g-ear up and book a check-up with one of our friendly vets. 🐾

“Uh oh – my pet needs to go into boarding, but I’m not sure if they’re still up to date with their vaccinations. What should I do?” 🐾

If you’re unsure about where your pet stands with their vaccination protection, consult our friendly team.

If your pet is up to date with all their required vaccinations, they can attend boarding at any point.

However, if they have become significantly overdue, you will need to have them re-vaccinated by a certain time in advance to ensure both acceptance by the boarding facility and adequate protection for your pet.💉
