CATAPILLAR SEASON !!!!!!

Please be aware that the processionary caterpillars are about! Your animal could be seriously affected by these creatures. An animal can loose their tongue as a result of a sting from a Caterpillar leaving them unable to eat or drink. Please be vigilant, your animal may even need to be put to sleep if they come into contact with one of these horrible things!!
If you suspect your animal has picked up a Caterpillar please take them to the vet IMMEDIATELY.

You will notice the caterpiller nests in the top of pine trees looking like a large ball. They are highly poisonos
