If you've always wanted to give macrame a go, but don't know how to get started, this workshop is perfect for you. Here you will learn some of the basic macrame knots (which you will then be able to apply to a huge range of other macrame projects) and create a gorgeous macrame heart and a couple of keyrings to take home.

These make wonderful mother's day gifts, or better still: spend a couple of hours with that special person in your life and together learn a new creative skill.

Did you know 77% of companion pets suffer from stress and anxiety.
Left untreated it can have a big impact on your pet's health and wellbeing and create a negative effect on the bond between you and your pet.

Have a look at the photo's below that explain some of the signs that indicate they may be feeling anxious or stressed.

❤️Idea's To Help Manage Your Cats Stress/Anxiety:

🐈If using a litter tray, it should be cleaned out regularly. Make sure it is placed in a quiet area.

🐈‍⬛Keep their food and water away from their litter trays. Also some cats don't like their food and water bowls beside each other, so try keeping them apart.

🐈If introducing new pets, this should be done slowly and with as little change to your cats routine as possible.

🐈‍⬛Make sure your cat has hiding places or escape routes when guests are visiting.

🐈Know whether your cats likes to be held, stroked and for how long. Don't restrain your pet just because you want to stroke them.

🐈‍⬛Have your kitten/cat get used to their pet carrier and coming to the vets. Make the cat carrier familiar and a nice place to be. Pop a toy or a treat inside to encourage them to go in.

❤️Idea's To Help Manage Your Dogs Stress/Anxiety:

🐕‍🦺Exercise is a great way to relieve stress, it helps to get rid of excess energy that can make stress worse. A bored and frustrated dog is much more likely to suffer from behavioural problems.

🐕If left at home alone for periods of time, for example while you are at work, provide toys that need solving or effort for example slow release treat toys.

🐕‍🦺For dogs with noise phobias and/or excessive barking, try safely, comfortably and happily confining the dog so it is happy and content. A safe place like your laundry, garage, or bedroom can be a suitable den.

🐕Simple things like calming music may work for a dog left alone who is suffering from separation anxiety (a simple online search will give you access to specially created “soothing dog music” collections).

If none of the above suggestions help, please give the clinic a call on 07 8492963 as there are products available that can make a difference. Talk them through with our reception team or make an appointment to see one of our vets.

🐈Your Pets Will Thank You For It.🐕‍🦺

Tomorrow is World Vet Day 2021 and we are celebrating our incredible Vet Team and all vets worldwide. World Veterinary Day is an annual event that was created by the World Veterinary Association to promote and highlight the work performed by veterinarians around the world.

It is a day to remind ourselves of their remarkable dedication to animal health, care and welfare, so a Big Thank You to Dr Henri, Dr Nicole, Dr Stephen, Dr Simon, Dr Larry and our VRS Referral Surgeon Dr Ian Millward who between them bring you over 120 years of veterinary experience and knowledge.

Although difficult to accurately say, it is estimated that there are approximately 1.8 Million registered vets worldwide. So here are some pictures of our wonderful six in action!
