If you want peace of mind, getting your cat microchipped is essential

Cats are keen wanderers and making sure they can be easily identified will increase the chances of a happy return back home if they do wander too far, but from 10th June 2024, it will be a legal requirement in England to have your cat microchipped and registered on a database by the time they’re 20 weeks old.

 

You can be fined up to £500 if your cat is not microchipped when they need to be.

 

If you are unsure if your cat is microchipped/registered, we can check this for you or call us today to book your cat in to be microchipped, currently on special offer!

Supporting Dog Anxiety Awareness May 2024

For more information on how to help your pet with anxiety, or any aspect of their welfare, have a chat with us or inquire about booking in a session with Dawn Peacock FdSc RVN NCert AnBeh.,

 

Dawn has over 15 years experience as a RCVS Registered Veterinary Nurse (RVN), giving her an advantage when it comes to canine and feline behaviour. Seeing dogs presenting for a variety of behavioural and clinical conditions, working with street dogs in South Africa and working with her own rescue dogs, has given her an understanding into the fundamentals needed when it comes to addressing behavioural issues. Dawn has trained with the ISVPS to gain her additional qualifications. Unfortunately, the term "behaviourist" is not a protected title, so anyone can call themselves a behaviourist without any prior training. We would always encourage anyone to research into what experience and knowledge that person has gained before they work with your dog.
