Cotts Equine Vets Bridgend

We make a big effort for our planet here at Cotts. We recycle paper, cardboard, wipes, plastic, newspapers, magazines, anything recyclable. We also reuse wherever possible, envelopes, shipping boxes, packing, plastic bags, any plastic that is not made hazardous by use. One area we could improve is the faecal egg count samples, many are sent in plastic bags that are not recyclable and certainly not reusable 🤭 Please comment below with any eco friendly suggestions for what sort of containers/bags the samples could be sent in we are all ears 👂🌍

‼️IMPORTANT NOTICE‼️ On Friday 21st June from 9:30am - 2:30pm there will be an interruption to our power supply due to a maintenance update from Western Power Distribution affecting our phone lines and computers. If you have an emergency during this time then please still call our usual number and you will be diverted to a vet via our answering service. Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.

Due to the recent confirmed outbreak of Equine Influenza in the Swansea area we would like to invite all of our clients and friends to come and join us for an informative client evening at Cotts on Monday night at 7pm to discuss any questions or concerns that you may have. Refreshments will be available!

Just a quick reminder that we do require 24 hours notice for repeat prescriptions as all medication needs to be signed off and prepared by a vet. Also remember the Bank Holiday weekend is approaching so if you need to order more medication please call either today or tomorrow as we are closed on Monday. Thank you!

Here are some pictures of our exciting new practice in Cowbridge....at the moment it is still a working progress but will be opening soon!🔨🛠✨

Horse Health Week begins next week so keep an eye out on our Facebook and Instagram pages for some fun & interesting facts on keeping your horse fit and healthy!🐴

Are your horse's vaccinations up to date? The BHA highly recommend that if your horse has not had a vaccination within the last six months they should receive a booster vaccination due to the recent outbreak of Equine Influenza in the UK, Ireland, Germany, France & Belgium. Please click the link below for more information.

You can get your horse vaccinated on a Zone Day meaning the call out fee is only £17.50....just call 01834 860871 to book your appointment!

With snow forecast for this afternoon and cold weather remaining you need to keep an eye on your equine friends...horses will find uneven ground uncomfortable when it becomes hard and frosty. Make sure there is always access to luke warm water as horses don't drink cold water. Put a water bottle in the buckets to stop them freezing over. Apply a teaspoon of table salt in their feeds to encourage them to drink more. Rug them up well, especially if they have been clipped!
In the comments below post a picture of your animals in the snow, we would love to see them🐶🐱🐴🦊

The entire Cotts team hopes everyone had a brilliant Christmas with your four-legged friends and we wish you all of the best for the new year🎅🏽❄️🎄🎁

If you are in desperate need of any prescriptions over the Christmas period please call today as we many not have a delivery until the New Year. We hope you have a lovey Christmas and a Happy New Year! From all the team here at Cotts🎅🏽
