πŸ¦ŠπŸ¦”πŸ¦‰ Today is National Wildlife Day, and we're celebrating some of the wonderful wild visitors that share our site.

Through our wildlife camera traps, we've been lucky enough to capture a glimpse of the animals that call our grounds home or stop by during their travels. From unexpected night-time visitors to familiar faces returning throughout the seasons, it's a reminder that nature is never too far away.

Supporting biodiversity is an important part of our sustainability journey at Davies. Alongside initiatives such as our sunflower patch and the work of our Bees & Butterflies Group, we're committed to creating spaces where wildlife can thrive alongside our hospital community.

Take a moment to enjoy some of the amazing creatures we've spotted on site and remember that even small green spaces can play an important role in supporting local wildlife. 🌿

Have you spotted any wildlife in your garden or local area recently? We'd love to hear about it in the comments. πŸ’š

When Minnie was referred to Davies, she was critically ill. She had stopped eating, was losing weight rapidly and was diagnosed with a life threatening diabetic crisis with several serious complications. Following intensive care, specialist treatment and a blood transfusion, Minnie was able to return home to her family.

Today, it's hard to believe just how poorly she was.

Minnie's owners recently shared these lovely photos and an update with us. She is gaining weight, enjoying adventures outside again, and is back to doing what cats do best... being wonderfully cheeky. She even lets her family know when it's time for her insulin injections each morning and evening.

We're delighted to see Minnie thriving and making the most of life at home. Thank you to her family for sharing these wonderful photos and for letting us be part of her journey. ❀️

🌱 Last year, through our memorial tree-planting initiative, 125 trees were planted at College Wood, Silsoe in memory of much-loved pets. We recently revisited the site and were delighted to see the young saplings beginning to grow.

Today, we’re taking a moment to think of everyone who has loved and lost a special companion. While they may no longer be by our side, the memories they leave behind continue to grow in the hearts of those who loved them.

Thank you to the for helping us create a lasting legacy for the pets entrusted to our care. 🌳

Happy International Dog Day! 🐾

Today we're celebrating some of the dogs who are part of the Davies family beyond the hospital.

They keep us active, make us laugh, steal our socks, take up far more room on the sofa than they should, and remind us every day why we love what we do.

Now it's your turn! Share a photo of your dog in the comments and tell us their name and favourite pastime. We'd love to meet them. ❀️

🌱 Sustainability in theatre is about making thoughtful choices wherever we can.

Maintaining body temperature and patient comfort is an important part of anaesthesia. That's why, where appropriate, our teams use reusable warming blankets and reusable incontinence pads to support patients throughout their procedure and recovery.

By incorporating reusable products into everyday clinical practice, we're able to reduce waste while continuing to provide the high standard of care our patients need during their anaesthetic journey.

It's one of the many ways our Green Team is helping to build more sustainable practices across the hospital, proving that environmental responsibility and excellent patient care can go hand in hand.

πŸ’š Small changes. Thoughtful choices. Lasting impact.

When your pet needs emergency care, every minute can feel overwhelming.

Recently, Indie was brought to Davies on a Friday evening as an emergency. Her owner later shared this wonderful feedback about the care they received:

"Kat has been amazing. After arriving on Friday evening as an emergency, she was there to meet us at the door. She started working on bloods straight away before we had even signed in at reception. Once we started the consultation, she already had the blood results so we could make a plan. She was so knowledgeable and it was really reassuring at a very stressful time."

Thank you to Indie's family for allowing us to share their kind words. We know how stressful an emergency visit can be, and we're proud of our teams who work around the clock to provide expert care, clear communication and reassurance when it's needed most.

πŸ’™ Thank you for trusting us with Indie's care.

🌻 Supporting sustainability goes beyond the walls of our hospital.

As part of our ongoing commitment to biodiversity, the Davies Bees & Butterflies Group has once again planted a sunflower patch along our fence line. These bright blooms do more than bring a splash of colour to Davies. They provide a valuable food source for pollinators and help create habitats that support local wildlife.

Biodiversity plays an important role in a healthy environment, and small initiatives like this are one of the many ways we’re working to make a positive difference through our sustainability program.

If you’re visiting over the coming weeks, take a moment to enjoy the sunflowers πŸπŸ¦‹πŸŒ»

πŸ–€ Black Cat Appreciation Day πŸ–€

Today we're celebrating Black Cat Appreciation Day with Jeffrey, the very loved feline companion of our Clinical Director, Sarah.

If you've ever watched Family Guy, you'll understand Jeffrey's vibe. Think Stewie Griffin in cat form: confident, unimpressed by your opinions, and convinced he's the most important person in the room.

With his glossy black coat, larger-than-life personality and talent for getting exactly what he wants, Jeffrey keeps everyone thoroughly entertained.

We wouldn't have him any other way.

Happy Black Cat Appreciation Day, Jeffrey! πŸΎπŸ–€

We'd love to see your black cats too. Share a photo in the comments and help us celebrate these wonderful felines.

Messages like this mean so much to our teams. πŸ’™

Oscar was referred to Davies in 2023 after being diagnosed with a**l sac adenocarcinoma. Recently, his owner got in touch with this wonderful update:

"Today is his 14th birthday and I wanted to say another thank you for giving me this additional time with him. He wouldn't be here if it wasn't for the amazing care he received from the Davies team."

Thank you to Oscar's owner for sharing these kind words. Knowing that Oscar is continuing to enjoy life with his family is the best update we could ask for. 🐾
