Anaesthetics
Report
Either way, you may be concerned about what is going to happen and would like to know more about the risks involved. It is also worthwhile having a look at the Anaesthetic Consent Form and Pre-anaesthetic Testing Form that you can also find on the Downloads page. You can, if you wish, make an appointment to come to the surgery and speak to us about anaesthesia.
Boarding Facilities
Report
Our surgical suite is well equipped for both orthopaedic and major soft tissue surgery with modern anaesthetic machines and monitoring equipment including electrocardiographs and doppler blood pressure monitors. All surgery is performed under sterile conditions. We have a separate area for minor or non sterile procedures.
Vaccinations
Report
Cats are now the most popular pets in Britain, far outnumbering dogs. They now live longer than ever before and enjoy better health than they ever have; many cats will live to 15 years of age, a few will exceed 20 years. To keep them healthy and active for as long as possible it is important to ensure proper care, nutrition and observe routine health checks and vaccinations.
Parasites
Report
Parasites: fleas, other skin parasites, tapeworm and roundworm infections are common problems. We recommend worming cats every 3-4 months with drontal tablets or if you struggle administering tablets there is a spot on treatment available. Maintain protection against fleas and ticks with products such as Advocate, Fiprospot or Effipro.
Ears, Mouth and Skin Conditions
Report
Atopy is a skin hypersensitivity (allergy) reaction common in cats. The most common sign is hair loss with or without dermatitis. Diseases of the eosinophilia granuloma complex are thought to be allergic manifestations. Head and neck itching is common. Less common manifestations include self-mutilation, foot chewing, and recurrent ear infections.
