A bit of fun! π€ Who can guess from this photo, which TWO important things are celebrated on May the 4th? π
It's been a busy few weeks in clinic for wildlife! π¦π¦π₯π¦π¦We have been nursing abandoned fledglings, hedgehogs, ducklings, and now little Laszlo the Pipistrelle Bat.π¦ He was bought in my a member of the public who found him unable to move, on the floor during daylight hours.πSadly - despite our best efforts - a lot of wildlife cases don't have happy endings; but after some rest in a warm dark space, some supportive care and repeat electrolyte feeds, Laz made a wonderful recovery was flying around the room, ready to get back out into the wild! πHe was later collected, ready to release after dusk, in the same area that he was found. πIt is important to know (should you ever come across any wildlife in need of assistance) that ANY local veterinary practice has a duty of care to native wildlife to relieve suffering - either through providing pain relief or euthanasia. π©Ί

π₯³ The new practice officially has the RWAF seal of approval! π₯³Since we moved premises in January, we had to re-apply for our Rabbit Friendly Vet directory place with The Rabbit Welfare Association and Fund. π° At the same time, the practice and staff were assessed and approved by Vet Specialist Adviser, Dr Richard Saunders, as a GOLD level rabbit practice. π
Here is Dr Catherine and vet students Asha & Chiara in our brand new imaging suite, with Roxy the Bearded Dragon!π¦Roxy was beautifully behaved for her ultrasound, which confirmed that she had some eggs ready to lay! π₯After a brief hospital stay and some treatment to help her contractions along, she had successfully began to lay her eggs! π
