Ready, set, go! VMOM returns for 2022
Participants can run, walk, cycle, horse-ride or take part in yoga workouts to raise money for Vetlife.

October marks the third Veterinary Month of Movement campaign, raising funds for Vetlife. 

Vetlife has announced its 2022 Veterinary Month of Movement (VMOM) fundraiser and is calling on members of the veterinary community to join forces, get active and raise money for the charity’s vital work.

Taking place throughout October, challenges can be set independently or with friends and colleagues and can focus on completing a step or distance target, exercising everyday or simply trying out new activities.

Previous entrants took part by running, walking, cycling, horse riding, yoga, HIIT workouts and more! The idea is to get creative with goals and find something that works for the whole team.

Participants are encouraged to set up a Just Giving page, take pictures throughout the month and tag Vetlife on social media. To learn more, visit vetlife.org.uk

BSAVA publishes Guide to Nutrition in Small Animal Practice

The BSAVA has added a small animal nutrition advice booklet to its series of BSAVA guides.

The BSAVA Guide to Nutrition in Small Animal Practice offers a resource for veterinary professionals to provide appropriate nutrition for animals. As well as maintaining the wellbeing of healthy pets, the guide explores how nutritional requirements change in times of illness and disease.

The guide is divided into five sections, which explore the importance of nutritional assessment; diet types; feeding at different life stages; feeding for specific situations; and feeding for specific diseases. Online resources are also in the BSAVA Library including client handouts and videos.

It is designed to be suitable for referencing, in-depth case planning and team training sessions.

The BSAVA Guide to Nutrition in Small Animal Practice can be purchased online from the BSAVA store.
