Nursing Team February Offer

Are your pets up to date with their preventative treatments?

 

Are they protected from fleas, ticks, mites & worms?

 

Why not take advantage of our FEBRUARY OFFER with our Nursing Team to check if your dog or cat has fleas.  Keeping our homes cosy and warm during the winter provides the perfect conditions for fleas to survive.

 

Our nursing team can weigh your pet (important for correct dosing) and provide a personalised report with the help of PARASSESS  (parasite risk checker) and provide the best parasite control for your pet.

 

This offer is by appointment only for registered pets at Rufford Veterinary Group. Please call our Reception Team to book your appointment.

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! 

Speak to our receptionists for more details
