🛡️ Vaccinations are an essential part of preventative health care for your cat.

Vaccinating cats is crucial as it helps to protect them against diseases that can prove life-threatening or make them very unwell.

Vaccination works by helping to build immunity, the natural ability to fight infection, by exposing the body to a small, altered dose of the disease.

⭐ Kittens often start their primary course around eight to nine weeks old.

⭐ Adult cats need regular booster injections each year to maintain protection because immunity fades over time.

Unsure about your cat’s vaccine status? Please give us a message or call and we can check for you: 01743 362556

It's been national volunteers week and Becky, one of our vets, recently exchanged her stethoscope and scrubs for a high-vis vest and litter picking kit. Quarry Veterinary Group allows all members of staff a day off a year for volunteering. Becky joined in a litter picking event in her local community, helping to clear the streets and lanes in the rural area where she lives of rubbish. When everything was neat and tidy, she then spent the afternoon at her laptop. Every 3 months, she writes an article for the Shropshire Cat Rescue quarterly magazine, sharing interesting cases that we have seen at the shelter.

It’s the end of Veterinary Nurse Awareness Month, and Amy has been taking a moment to appreciate the different parts of her role that matter most to her....

A big one is infection control, which I help manage day to day. It’s often behind the scenes, but it underpins everything we do — from maintaining clean, safe clinical spaces to making sure protocols are followed so our patients have the best chance to recover without added risk. It’s detail-focused work, but it makes a real difference.

Alongside that, I also really value my time in anaesthesia and inpatient care — being closely involved in patient monitoring and supporting them through recovery.

Veterinary nursing is full of variety, and that’s what makes it so meaningful. Every part connects back to the same goal: giving our patients the safest, kindest care we can.

Meet Michelle....
I’ve spent over 10 years in veterinary nursing, mainly splitting my time between nurse clinics and the in house laboratory. I enjoy the variety — from hands-on patient care to the more behind-the-scenes work that helps pets be happy and healthy.

I’ve also developed a bit of a soft spot for cats, especially senior ones and visit Shropshire Cat Rescue every week to help look after the cats in their care.😻

Being a veterinary nurse means so much to me, Owen. My role involves organising laparoscopic bitch spays and coordinating orthopaedic procedures with our external surgeons, as well as carrying out post-operative assessments to help make sure our patients recover as smoothly as possible.
I’ve also got a bit of a soft spot for anaesthesia and X-rays—there’s something very satisfying about a smooth, stable anaesthetic and getting that perfect radiograph (even if I do spend a little too long checking both 👀).

Supporting patients through their recovery and rehabilitation after surgery—helping them regain comfort, confidence, and mobility is one of the most rewarding parts of the job.

I’m really proud to be a veterinary nurse and grateful to work alongside such a dedicated team every day!
