Happy British Veterinary Receptionist Appreciation Day to our amazing reception team! Here are Laura, Angie and Nikki, today’s front of house reception team superstars! A shout out to Clare too who is off today, and Beth who is on maternity leave. We love you all!
The recognition day was first championed by the British Veterinary Receptionist Association (BVRA) in 2019 to recognise the importance, diversity and challenge of the veterinary receptionist role. As well as being the first port of call for owners contacting the practice, booking pets in, dealing with owner queries and following up appointment reminders, receptionists liaise with our clinical teams to offer administrative support and update records when pets join us from other practices. They unpack orders, rotate stock, help with preparation of items (food and meds orders) for collection, help with managing clinicians’ diaries and so much more. It’s an incredibly rewarding job seeing pets at set intervals on their life journey and getting to know pet owners. As well as being here to celebrate pet highs, team are also here to offer support at sadder times.
Thank you to our fabulous team for all you do to help support pets and pet owners and the rest of our 387 team. We would be truly lost without you.

This is fabulously cuddly Sprockett who came in to visit us yesterday for his vaccination appointment. We don’t often see Old English Sheepdog puppies so the two month old was the centre of attention and had a mini tour of the team! Look at his adorable heart shaped nose! We look forward to more cuddles and to seeing how he has grown next time he is in!

Maggie came in to see us as her owner suspected she had eaten a plum that had fallen into the garden from the neighbour’s tree and was anxious about the plum stone. As Maggie had potentially ingested the plum the day before, we scanned her to see if there was any evidence of seasonal snacking. Sure enough, the plum stone showed up nice and clearly on the scan. We gave poor Maggie something to make her sick and out came a 3.5cm long plum stone! Even though she didn’t think it at the time, it was lucky for Maggie that the stone emerged so easily as, had it become lodged, she would have needed surgery.
Do watch out for windfalls in the garden as eating plums and greengages can lead to problems further down the line for pets. Wasps are also partial to over-ripe fruit, and now we’re also coming into apple season, there will be more about to catch out unsuspecting inquisitive noses and paws.
If your pet is stung on the face, and especially in the mouth, please ring for veterinary advice immediately as swelling can restrict breathing and be dangerous for our four legged friends.

It’s here! International Cat Day is recognised every year on 8th August and this year the theme is ‘Celebrating Cats’ – no better reason to take some time out today to lavish extra attention on your favourite feline! It’s also the perfect day to spend a few moments considering how our cats make life that little bit better, whether it be through companionship, how they make us smile, the joy of hearing them purr or simply how cute they look when they are all curled up sleeping!
The charity International Cat Care, custodians of the event, are championing the day to bring cat advocates together to share their love of cats. We’d love to hear what you most love about your feline friend!
