3 things you ought to know?

One:
    This Thursday (29th October) it's the Hyde Park Vet Halloween Pet Party from 6-8pm at the Pet Boutique at 63 Connaught Street W2 2AE. Dress yourself up, peel the kids away from the television and come along for a Halloween Fancy Dress moment. Judges for the event are the irrepressible Jo Good and Anna Webb, the Barking Blondes from Radio London's 'The Barking Hour'  (you can listen in to BBC Radio London 94.9FM every Thursday 3-4pm for all that's dog in London).

 
Two: 
    Last week, Codie, one of our veterinary nurses, climbed 5,895 metres to the very top of Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania, and in the process she and her friend Sophie Holmes, who has cystic fibrosis herself, raised over £10,000 for the Cystic Fibrosis Trust.

We think it's a pretty amazing achievement and and are very proud of them both.

Three: 
    We're about to start the dreaded Firework season. Loads of fun and games for the people setting them off and having firework parties, not so much or you are an anxious or noise-phobic pet. There's lots you can do to help them cope better and make the whole experience a bit less of a nightmare. Take a look at our Firework Advice page for more information or come and talk to one of our veterinary nurses about how you can help them.

    Look forward to seeing you on Thursday evening from 6pm
