Hairballs: Just a Gross Cat Thing – or a Health Concern?
If you’ve ever woken up to that unmistakable “hurk hurk hurk” sound… congrats, you’re a real cat parent. 😅 But how often is too often? And when should you worry?

If hairballs become frequent or your cat seems unwell, don’t ignore it. Rarely, they can lead to serious blockages.

Has your cat been limping or licking their paw nonstop? 😿 A cut or scrape on their paw pad could be the reason — and while it might look minor, it can quickly become serious if not treated properly.

Vaccinating your cat is one of the most important steps to keep them healthy and protected! 🐱 Vaccines work by training your cat’s immune system to fight serious diseases like cat flu, feline leukemia, and panleukopenia — illnesses that can be severe or even fatal. Even indoor cats need vaccines because viruses can be brought into the home in many ways.

Starting kitten vaccinations early and continuing with regular boosters throughout their life helps ensure your furry friend stays protected against harmful infections. Protect your cat, protect other cats, and help stop the spread of disease.

Signs Your Cat Needs a Dental Checkup 🦷🐱

Here are 5 subtle signs your cat may be in pain (that you might easily miss)

It’s been so lovely meeting so many beautiful cats over the past few weeks—and seeing the wonderful photos you shared while farewelling Mark.

I thought it was time to introduce my own furry family member. Meet Inky! She got her name because she’s black and was a tiny wee thing (‘dinky’) when we adopted her. Inky came into our lives as a foster kitten during the very first lockdown in 2020, and she has a number of siblings who now live with other staff in the Vet Hospital group!

At home, Inky is a total sweetheart. She loves cuddles, electric blankets, and her hairless siblings (aka the kids). She’s not a fan of rain, off-brand food, or the dog! And she definitely doesn’t enjoy coming to work with me—so when she needs a check-up, she gets a little pre-travel pregabalin to help her stay calm.

If your cat is the same, let us know—we’re always happy to make a tailored plan to make their visits as stress-free as possible.
