Yesterday we received two new pieces of special equipment, called bair huggers. It blows warm air that attaches to special beds and blankets keeping animals warm especially useful for animals that are recovering from surgery or having long major surgery.
Today Jet was the first to test out its capabilities and he really wanted to test it well. He arrived collapsed and so cold his temperature wasn't reading
on the thermometer. Once medically stable he was placed and wrapped up with the bair hugger on, temperature taken every 15 minutes. He soon started to warm up and within 4 hours was back to normal dog temperature of 38.1c, eating and tail wagging.
The picture is of Jet snuggled up enjoying the pocket of warmth.
Today we said (a temporary!) goodbye to Lucy and Jess, who are both starting their maternity leave!
Lucy is having a little sister to her 4 year old Olivia, and Jess is having her first baby - also a girl!
Sadly Lucy has been shielding since COVID but we now have a new nurse Whitney, who will be staying with us permanently.
Jess's caseload is being temporarily covered by Charlene - a not exactly local girl hailing from Australia!
We would like to welcome Whitney and Charlie to Coastal Vets, and wish Jess and Lucy all the best!
HE IS HOME! Woohoo!
Baxter went missing from his home in Sedgeford at around 9.30am today. His fur friend came home but Baxter hasn’t been seen since. His owner is frantic - please keep your eyes out and give us a call on 01485 544201 if you see any sign of him.
