Hello everyone,

We hope you and your furry (and fluffy!) friends are enjoying the fresh spring air and brighter days. It’s been a busy and exciting month here at Friends for Pets, and we’ve got plenty to share with you!

🌸 Welcome Back, Emily!

We’re absolutely delighted to welcome Emily back to Head Office in Shipham after her 10-month maternity leave. It’s so lovely to have her back with the team, and we know many of you will join us in giving her a warm welcome!

🐶 April Challenge Update – Go Sam & Tracy!

A huge shoutout to Sam and Tracy, who are absolutely smashing their Stand Up To Cancer Walkies Challenge this April!

They’re taking on an incredible goal of 60 miles across the month, all while walking with the doggy’s and raising money for Cancer Research UK. What an inspiring effort!

If you’d like to support them and this amazing cause, you can donate here:

🌼 5 Seasonal Tips for Happy Pets

Spring is a wonderful time of year, but it also brings a few things to keep in mind for your pets:

  1. Watch out for allergies – Pets can suffer from pollen allergies too. Look out for itching or sneezing.
  2. Flea & tick prevention – Warmer weather means parasites are back, so stay up to date with treatments.
  3. Garden safety – Be mindful of toxic plants like lilies (for cats) and keep chemicals out of reach.
  4. Hydration is key – As temperatures rise, make sure fresh water is always available.
  5. Exercise adjustments – Enjoy longer walks but avoid the hottest parts of the day as the season warms up.
