The House Vet

I am introducing online booking for selected appointments and phone enquiries to make it easier for families to get in touch, especially while local mobile reception remains unreliable in my area.
This will not replace my personal approach. A phone consultation will still be arranged before any visit, and urgent same-day appointment requests will continue to be booked by phone.
The new system will also help me offer more flexible telemedicine consultations around end of life care.
Online booking is expected to go live the weekend of the 5th & 6th September and will be trialled over the coming months. Telemedicine consultations will be rolled out shortly.
Thank you for your patience and support while this is introduced.

EDIT FOSTER SECURED

Meet little Dougie . 10 year old .

We are looking for someone special who would be willing to be on stand by to take this dear little chap on foster IF his poorly owner gets admitted into hospital .

Dougie is diabetic and needs insulin injections twice daily .

He is a much loved dog who will return home to his mum .

Dougie loves everyone ,and is good with other dogs but would prefer a quiet foster with no other dogs .

He is in the Falmouth area .

Sadly the Cinnamon Trust can not help this owner

Huge congratulations to Rebecca Stephens — the UK’s first Veterinary Social Worker — for being named an official ‘Amazing Social Worker’.

Recognised by The British Association of Social Workers judges during World Social Work Month for her “tenacity and perseverance”, Rebecca is helping shape a new specialism that highlights the vital role pets play in our lives. It also shows how animal welfare concerns can be an early warning sign of potential child and domestic abuse.

Rebecca said: “Human and animal welfare are interconnected — so when we protect animals, we protect people too.”
