May is National Veterinary Nursing Awareness Month! At 387 Vets and The West Midlands Cat Clinic, we’re proud to have a 16-strong nursing team of 12 fully qualified Registered Veterinary Nurses and 4 student nurses at varying stages of their Level 3 Veterinary Nursing Diploma. This month, we’ll be showcasing our veterinary nursing team, their huge portfolio of skills and knowledge and the fantastic work they do in supporting owners as well as the health and well-being of people’s pets.

Whatever your plans this May Bank Holiday, we hope you and your pets have a lovely long weekend!
We are open as normal this week but the practice will be closed on Bank Holiday Monday (4th May). If you have a pet emergency at this time, please continue to call us on 01922 411755 and follow the answer machine instructions.
If you are unsure whether your pet needs to see a vet urgently or are looking for some advice, don’t forget, all our registered clients have complimentary access to VidiVet, a vet triaging service available 24 hours of the day, 365 days of the year (and 366 days in a leap year!). It’s a brilliant resource for pet peace of mind and can be a great time and money saver. Submit your query and a vet will get back to you with a comprehensive response within minutes. Check communications from our practice for your VidiVet access link if you’re not already set up.
Wishing you all a happy and healthy early May Bank Holiday!

This year, both 387 Veterinary Centre and The West Midlands Cat Clinic are due to go through re-accreditation for our Cat Friendly Clinic Status and, once again, we’re aiming for gold! The process involves evidencing how we help to minimise feline stress in practice and in and around veterinary visits.
Part of the accreditation involves all clinical team completing a certain amount of feline-specific training including appropriate response to feline behaviours exhibited in practice.
Some of us have already accessed Feliway’s Cat Handling Programme, a practitioner training resource created by Ceva and International Cat Care. We were super-excited to see The West Midlands Cat Clinic featured throughout the set of online learning modules, demonstrating exemplar practice. Check out these stills to spot a few familiar faces too!
