Common conditions information

All of our pets are unique, but many of the conditions that they can suffer from are seen by our vets and nurses often on a daily basis. We have complied some basic information and recommended links on these common conditions to help you understand how we treat or manage them.

• Hyperthyroidism - overactive thyroid gland, a condition seen commonly in elderly cats
• Hypothyroidism - underactive throid gland, a condition seen more commonly in dogs
• Chronic Renal Failure - a geriatric kidney disease of cats and dogs
• Diabetes - a common condition for both cats and dogs
• FLUTD - feline lower urinary tract disease
• Cushings Disease - overproduction of cortisol, a hormone from the adrenal gland in dogs
• Degeneritive Joint Disease - arthritis
