Cody is our Lead Nurse and holder of a Certificate in Small Animal Nutrition, as well as being a qualified Hills Nutritional Ambassador. She is part of our nursing team that runs our Weight Management Clinics to help pets enjoy a happier, healthier lifestyle. The clinic programme helps pets get into optimum body condition through a series of face-to-face sessions full of nutrition, treat and exercise advice specifically tailored to the individual. All attendees get their own log book and progress chart so it’s easy to track change.
Sherlock is one of Cody’s current clients and is doing brilliantly on his weight loss journey. The 7 year old beagle has been struggling with arthritis so signed up to Weight Management Clinics to lose weight and help ease the pressure on his joints. Sherlock has had 3 visits with Cody and is doing brilliantly. He’s lost an impressive 4 kilos in two months and his owner has already noticed Sherlock is much more energetic and is less stiff after longer walks. Keep up the good work Sherlock!

This is 11 year old Sid who has recently been in for dental work with Selenia, our vet with a postgraduate certificate in small animal dentistry. We carry out staged dentals at 387 Vets. This means that procedures are time-limited to increase pet safety under anaesthesia so if a pet needs a significant amount of treatment, they will come in for more than one visit. Sid was a very brave boy, having 10 teeth removed at his first visit and 5 further extractions a month later.

We love supporting team members to broaden their knowledge in areas of particular clinical interest. Many of you will know our vet Selenia who is holder of a postgraduate certificate in small animal dentistry. Last weekend, Seli attended the British Veterinary Dental Association’s 2026 Congress in London for two days specifically dedicated to learning more about pet dental and oral health. Lectures covered a diverse range of topics from effective pain management and handling difficult extractions to plaque prevention, anaesthesia considerations and useful protocols for exotics dentistry. Topics in the advanced lecture stream were equally as diverse, and there was even a session on how to build your own 3D printing lab for surgical planning! We look forward to hearing all about Seli’s trip when she’s back in tomorrow!

Many of you will have met our new veterinary receptionist Emma Kiejda who started with us this June. No stranger to veterinary practice, Emma has a diverse range of industry-related experience. She started out as a Veterinary Care Assistant at the age of 18, using her VCA qualification to support in-patient care. She later moved into a purely customer-facing role as a veterinary receptionist and, after a two year hiatus as an audit coordinator for a pharmaceutical stock taking company, is back in small animal practice – this time with us! Emma thrives on multi-tasking, loves working with people and pets and has a great understanding of front of house activity as well as a useful knowledge of more clinical elements of practice life. She also comes highly recommended by our nurse Rachael Leonard as they used to work together before coming here! We’re delighted to welcome Emma to the 387 Vets & West Midlands Cat Clinic team!

We had a fab time at Chez Fest on Saturday and loved meeting everyone and saying hi to any four legged friends attending! A big thank you to those of you who entered our competition to guess how many tapeworm segments were in the jar. We used grains of rice to represent tapeworm as if an animal has the parasite, you’re likely to see rice-like deposits around their bottom and in their poo. These are actually segments of tapeworm that have broken off. And they are alive! Ugh!
All ‘tapeworm segments’ have now been counted and we can reveal that the grand total in one very small jar was an incredible 2,725! Competition winners have been notified.
With summer being peak parasite season, it’s a great reason to check your pet’s parasite prevention treatments are up to date. Do ask us which treatment is best for your pet’s lifestyle to prevent against unwelcome visitors!
