But, with December holidays around the corner, that all may change! Dr Marika Wium of St. Francis Animal Clinic in Brakpan, joined me on a Zoom to help us all be better pet parents this December! 

Whether we are apart, travelling together or staying home, there are some great tips and tricks, as well as some very big warnings straight from our vet herself!

With their winning team and dedicated staff, this practice is souring, and so, who better to advise us on our furry family members than one of the incredible woman behind it - Dr Marika Wium!

Remember - no Xylitol - check the labels and sunscreen really matters for animals too!
