Summer Flea and Tick Patrol

Fleas and ticks are very common parasites of dogs and cats as most pet owner know well. What is less well known is the health risks they pose to both pets and their humans.

Fleas are prolific breeders, in fact one female flea can produce 2000 eggs in her lifetime.
Since fleas can often cause allergic skin disease in humans and pets, and transmit infectious disease and even tapeworm, controlling them is paramount.

Ticks can also carry infectious diseases that afflict humans as well as animals.

From 27th July to 28th August Sunnyside is running a flea and tick awareness inititive.
You can pop in and talk to our Flea and Tick Patrol.

We are offering a extra pack of flea and tick treatment free when you buy our
excellent new spot on product for dogs from Novartis.

Our trained practice staff will remind you about flea and tick treatments and give you guidance on how to treat your pet.

Alternatively, why not phone the practice on 01485 600022 at Roydon and 01485 535950 at Hunstanton.

Sunnyside is also offering 25% off a years supply of wormers and if you have a new puppy or kitten we can offer them a free wormer.
