8th August is International Cat Day! Every year, cat charity International Cat Care use the day to highlight important feline-centric topics and to raise awareness of cats as a species. This year’s focus is ‘How to be Cat Friendly Every Day’, respecting each cat’s unique nature and meeting their environmental and social needs. As 387 Vets and The West Midlands Cat Clinic are Gold-accredited with International Cat Care’s Cat Friendly Clinic scheme, we’re especially excited about this year’s theme!
Follow International Cat Care’s Facebook page and their other social media channels for a huge range of top tips on how to be cat friendly at home. Their first post today is all about cat communication for cat friendly interaction and a better understanding of your feline friend’s behaviours. Their second post is about the importance of cat friendly play for mental stimulation, minimising unwanted destructive behaviour, encouraging exercise and for strengthening your bond with your cat. It’s going to be a busy feed of fab tips and information. Do keep revisiting!

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!

Roadworks have started this morning at the top of Shaw’s Lane on the A34 side of our car park entrance. The top of Shaw’s Lane by Wyrley Wesley Methodist Church has been closed. However, our car park is still open and accessible from the other end of Shaw’s Lane. Diversion signs are in place, taking you past the practice and first right up Benton’s Lane. Unfortunately, you may need to do a bit of a detour to park! We’ll keep you updated on any access updates as roadworks progress.
