Thank you, Alex, for your kind words about Roger. 🤍

“I wanted to thank you for looking after Roger. You gave him a wonderful end, so emotional, the way hair clipping captured his essence too x”

Messages like this mean so much to us. It is always our hope that, in some small way, the care we give and the little details we preserve can bring comfort to families at such a difficult time.

Thank you again for trusting Cherry Tree to look after Roger.

One of the most rewarding parts of what we do at Cherry Tree is helping families create something truly personal in memory of a much-loved companion.

We were honored to commission this beautiful laser-engraved wooden casket for Greg’s beloved Buster. From the engraved photographs to Buster’s own paw prints and the special words chosen for him, every detail helped make this tribute deeply personal and full of meaning.

Creating pieces like this is always incredibly rewarding, because it allows us to help preserve not just a memory, but a little part of the bond that made that pet so special.

Thank you, Greg, for trusting us to help create something so personal for Buster. He was clearly a very loved boy. 🤍

Yesterday’s sunshine was too lovely not to enjoy, so Fergie and I headed out for a Sunday walk and made the most of the bluebells, fresh air, and a little cooling off in the water along the way. ☀️🐾

I am sure we weren’t the only ones out enjoying such a beautiful day, so please do share your Sunday walk photos in the comments below. We would love to see your pets making the most of the sunshine too.

There is something so special about seeing happy pets enjoying the sunshine.

Thank you, Charlotte, for sharing these heartfelt words for Buzz. He was clearly adored, and it is a privilege to help honor his memory.

Some weeks quietly remind us just how much care, compassion, and dedication goes on behind the scenes.

Last week was one of those weeks for Laura and Lorraine at Time2Say Goodbye. Each name on this list represents a much-loved companion, a family member, and a life that meant everything to someone. 🐾

Whether in the peaceful surroundings of the clinic here at Cherry Tree, or in the comfort of home, these moments are never rushed each one handled with the dignity and kindness every pet deserves.

We feel incredibly proud to work alongside such genuinely compassionate vets, who give so much of themselves to support both pets and their families at the hardest of times.

Thinking of all the families who said goodbye last week, with Laura at Time2Say goodbye and honouring every name on this list 🌈 RIP ❤️

🐶😺 Tribute 😺🐶

Today, we pause to honour the precious companions who have made their journey across the Rainbow Bridge 🌈 in recent days. Whether their final moments were held gently within our clinic or peacefully at home, each was surrounded with love, dignity and the utmost respect. Their paw prints remain with us, always. 🐾

Lovely to see our friends at Pattenden Vet Clinic Veterinary Clinic introducing Mel 🐾

We’ve known Mel for many years, not just through the veterinary world but as Michael’s partner here at Cherry Tree. Michael’s been with us for over 20 years, and together they’ve been a big part of our journey.

Even more special they first met here at Cherry Tree ❤️

Always great to support independent practices who share the same values of care and compassion 🤝

Wishing Mel all the best, she’ll be a fantastic addition to the team!

📢New(ish) kid on the block!

Mel joined us back in November as a receptionist so many of you may have already met her! (Sorry, we've been a bit slow in formally introducing her to you all)

Mel has a wealth of experience having been in the veterinary industry for 25 years! Having done an array of roles including (but not limited to!) receptionist, practice administrator, equine nursing and practice manager. Mel previously worked at an equine vets, so do feel free to chat to her about your larger four legged friends when you're in! 🐴

Mel loves the great outdoors, and lives locally with her husband, 3 children, and her many pets - 2 sprocker spaniel puppies, 2 cats, a cornsnake and Popcorn the Shetland pony 🍿🐍🐈‍⬛️🐶

We are very proud to work in close collaboration with some truly lovely, compassionate Vets who offer gentle, peaceful euthanasia either in your own home or here at the clinic at Cherry tree.

This allows families to say goodbye in a calm, unhurried and non-clinical setting away from the sights, sounds and pressures of a busy veterinary surgery, giving pets the dignified farewell they deserve, surrounded by love and familiarity 🤍

All of our Vets can be found via the link below.

If you would like support, guidance, or simply to understand your options, please know we are always here to help.

Choosing who cares for your pet after they pass 🐾

At such an emotional time, many owners naturally leave arrangements in the hands of their veterinary practice and that’s completely understandable.

But it’s also important to know that you always have a choice, and it’s absolutely okay to ask questions about who will be caring for your pet or horse.

Taking a little time beforehand, when you feel able, can bring real comfort later on. Looking into the crematorium your vet recommends, reading reviews, viewing genuine photos, or even finding them on Google Earth can offer quiet reassurance that your beloved companion will be cared for in a respectful and transparent environment.

Every pet and horse deserves the same dignity and kindness in their final journey as they had throughout their life. Knowing where they will be, who will be looking after them, and having the option to speak directly or even visit, can make all the difference when the time comes.

Please remember, you are always able to make your own arrangements and to ask your vet about the crematorium they use. Being gently informed now can bring a great sense of peace of mind later. 💛

The Cherry Tree “Wishes” form is also a simple and reassuring way to let your vet know your preferences, whether that’s ahead of time or at the moment of loss, helping ensure your wishes are clearly understood and followed.

Today we’re remembering beautiful Mifi, who shared an incredible 25 years with Graham and his family.

“She was a massive part of our family and will be dearly missed… she knew the way to his heart and had him wrapped around her little paw.”

Run free, Mifi, reunited with mum and your doggy brother Vinnie. 💜
