elcome to our January edition.

What will 2018 bring for us?

World cup glory? A Royal wedding and baby? More Brexit mayhem? More social media ‘fake’ news?

Let’s hope we all find something special to look forward to this year!!

My new years’ resolution is always to have a ‘project’. In 2017 we have been busy replacing our kitchen and my other half has spent (many) months taking the old one apart and refitting a new one, whilst I spent (many) months clambering over the dogs to wash up in our little utility room sink alongside the dog food and wellies. I even spent a while cooking on our camping stove which was a challenge! But now we are almost at the finishing line and when you get this edition through the door we will (hopefully) have spent a lovely Christmas enjoying our festive food with family and friends in a smart warm kitchen with no camping stove in sight!

So for 2018 I’m not really sure what my aim will be. I may even venture out to do more exercise! If you have a look on page 39, Peter Nelson’s team in Pickering can certainly help you get motivated.

At the Handy Mag we’re starting 2018 with a slightly bigger team. A big welcome to Mandy who joined us last month. Nicky and I will be lost for things to do this year with all the extra help!

Well done to Mrs Strickland for winning our November competition.

A very Happy New Year to all of our advertisers and readers and a huge thank you to all of our local posties for getting the magazines to letterboxes across Ryedale and York in 2017.

We’re very grateful!

Until next month…

Marianne

Pickering Musical Society is in the full swing of rehearsals for their annual Pantomime.

T

his year they will be perfoming Goldilocks and the Three Bears. Written by Life Member of PMS Ron Hall the panto follows the traditional tale with a few twists and turns.

We are pleased to welcome performers old and new, Marcus Burnside will play Dame Trott.

Goldilocks and Prince Edwin are played by sisters Alice and Imogen Rose who are among three generations of the same family performing in this years pantomime with their mother Fiona and grandma Pat performing in the chorus.

Our villain this year is the evil village squire and his dumb henchman played by Colin Wragg & Stephen Temple who try their best to kidnap Goldilocks, who is saved by the Forest Fairy (Paula Paylor) and three very kind bears...

The pantomime runs from the 12th - 20th January and tickets are available now from the Kirk Theatre Box Office 01751 474833 or www.kirktheatre.co.uk

Ryedale Life Spotlight on Ryan Swain

R

yan Swain is storming the entertainment world locally and nationally across social media and radio – not bad for a local lad with ADHD who felt written off at school!

Born in Malton, Ryan is an upcoming TV, Radio, live events presenter and entertainer who is known for his his cheeky humour, high energy and quick improvisational skills. He has been head compere at Flamingoland Resort for five years, hosting all of their party in the park concerts and main events. Working weekly with some of the biggest stars in the celebrity world, Ryan has about 200,000 followers across his social media channels reaching up to 4 million every week with his viral content – a huge achievement. His videos are his comedy perceptions on mental health, being a parent of twins and sustaining a happy relationship.

kick out of improvising if something does go wrong!

The best event I’ve done this year was with Paul Gascoigne – I interviewed him in front of a live audience. As a Northerner too, naturally we hit it off. I’ve also got one coming up with Usain Bolt in January.”

At school Ryan was diagnosed with ADHD. “It has never held me back,” he says, “In fact, I think it has probably made it all easier!” Ryan came up with a saying about his ADHD which went viral online, “We have the brains of a Ferrari, but the breaks of a Ford Escort. In other words, our minds are always stimulated and relentless and its very hard to slow that down.”

Ryan is a dedicated family man with beautiful two year old identical twins, Ivy-Kay and Isla Yasmin Swain, and fiancee Natalia. He’s keen to be a role model but what advice would Ryan give to young people growing up in Ryedale now?

During the day you will find Ryan among the Porches at Specialist Cars in Malton where he works as a Sales Executive. Whilst he loves the flash cars, he is also a passionate supporter of his local area.

“Ryedale is a beautiful place to grow up in and there’s nothing I like better than a country walk. I have been very fortunate to have a stage on my doorstep at Flamingoland where I can use my creative talents and I’m also extremely grateful to John Hawkins at Specialist Cars for his support.”

Where did it all start?

“It all dates back to my fifth birthday party in Norton.

My mum arranged a magician for my party. I think he was called Uncle Walter, and he needed a volunteer so, as the birthday boy, I put myself forward. Poor guy - I felt comfortable up on stage straight away and ended up taking over the whole show. Obviously, I’ve come a long way since then!”

Ryan’s favourite events are the live ones. “Being a live presenter is pretty exciting and I actually get a

“Anyone can achieve their dreams at any age. Always stay true to yourself no matter what it is you aspire to do and always show willing and enthusiasm in doing so.”

He is also keen to give something back to his community and, among many other fundraising events, in 2013 he skateboarded from Malton to Scarborough in just four hours, breaking a world record and raising money for Louby’s Lifeline, which funds brain tumour research.

There’s more information about Ryan on his website (www.ryanswain.co.uk) along with upcoming events.

Kirkbymoorside Environment Group

Thermal Imaging Camera BOOKINGS FOR 2018 NOW BEING TAKEN (FREE OF CHARGE) Want to save money and fuel this winter?

Thinking about improving your wall and roof insulation?

Find out where heat is escaping from your home.

KMEG volunteers have now used the Lottery funded camera for over 100 homes & businesses in the Kirkbymoorside area.

The camera picks up heat, rather than light like a normal camera.

Heat can be lost around windows, doors and skirting boards, through the roof or up the chimney of an unused fireplace.

Here heat is being lost through a bay window and through the wall from a radiator under the window.

You choose if you want any pictures taken. They can be emailed or printed for you. There’s no charge for the camera, but small donations to KMEG help the group with costs like insurance and publicity and are most welcome.

To book the camera: email Helen Gundry at helenspost@hotmail.co.uk or phone 01751 432447. We’ll fix a good time to call round with the camera. The best weather conditions are cloudy, dry and cold!

For more information about the camera and thermal imaging, check our website: kirkbymoorsideenvironment.wordpress. com

Great prices and excellent service all year round from Calladenes Interiors

C

alladenes Interiors are specialists in the supply and fitting of quality kitchens and beautiful bedrooms at extremely competitive prices.

Steve and Jodie of Calladene’s Interiors disagree with the need for New Year sales. “At Calladene’s we offer honest low prices all year round. Before you agree to a sale price, give us a call as we believe we can offer a much more competitive price. We know from experience we are often 30-40% cheaper.”

With over two decades of experience, Steve and his son Jodie have a solid reputation for excellent craftsmanship, service and pricing. Steve explains: “We guarantee to beat any like-for-like quote, with reasonable pricing from the start.”

With around 300 bedroom styles to choose from and a wide range of kitchen designs, there is something to inspire all tastes and budgets. Enjoy a large choice of colour options across their ranges, and find your perfect kitchen or bedroom.

If you simply wish to refresh your kitchen or bedroom by changing the doors and worktops, Calladene’s can supply any style of door, and can offer a choice of over 150 finishes.

Steve says “Our bedrooms are of the highest quality, and are made individually for each customer. We can

design for any bedroom, including sloping ceilings and doors.”

Calladene’s can also take on all work in and around the home such as general building work, joinery, tiling, flooring, decorating and much more.

Steve said: “We can work on full projects and also smaller, but no less important jobs, from gutter cleaning to power-washing a drive. We talk to all our customers about their requirements however large or small the job. For our bedroom and kitchen fittings, we book a time to talk the the client, take measurements, show samples, go through the price list and then produce computerised images and our overall price for the project”, said Steve. “Once we’ve delivered the images and price, there’s no pressure or obligation and it’s clear from the beginning how reasonable our prices are.”

Once the ‘go ahead has been given’ all works are carried out by Steve and Jodie, without the need for subcontractors, saving on time and keeping to the timescale agreed. “The whole project, from first plans to complete installation, is given the very best, consistent attention to detail” said Steve.

“We do not charge for any quotations or design work, so when you want a new kitchen or bedroom, make sure you call Calladene’s Interiors for the best all round service in the area.”

Short Story Precious

Dan leaned against a lamp post covered in posters, watching the house at number fifteen.

The curtains were drawn and the place seemed deserted. If Alan was the creature of habit that Dan thought he was, any moment now he’d be returning home with his tray of chips and a battered sausage.

Alan had dropped Dan’s sister-in-law, Pam, off on New Year’s Day, with the promise to come and collect her the day after. He hadn’t been seen since.

“Do you think they’ve had a row?” Dan had asked his wife Amy. “Pam’s being tight-lipped,” Amy said. “She just flops on the settee all day eating your chocolate liqueurs and sniffing.”

Dan would never describe Alan as much of a catch, but he felt compelled to reunite these two lovebirds - if nothing else, just to get his sofa back.

On cue, a shadowy figure crept through the shadows and slipped through the doorway into number fifteen. Dan crossed the road and hammered on the door.

There was no answer.

The letter box was wedged open with a copy of the same poster about a missing sphynx cat that had been stapled to the lamp post. He pushed it to one side and shouted, “Alan, it’s Dan, I know you’re in there.”

There was silence.

“I’m not interested in what’s gone on between you and Pam,” he called. “I just want to know you’re okay.”

The hall light came on.

The door creaked open and Alan stood in the hallway holding his battered sausage.

“Is Pam alright?” he asked, taking a bite.

“She’s worried about you,” Dan said. “We all are.”

Alan’s face crumpled. “I’ve done something unforgiveable,” he said.

Dan’s heart sank. Was he going to be stuck with his sister-in-law indefinitely?

“Tell me what it is,” he asked calmly. “I’m sure we can fix it.”

“Pammy mustn’t know,” Alan said desperately.

“I can’t promise you that.” Dan followed Alan into the lounge. “Just tell me what’s happened.”

“I need more time.” Alan perched on the arm of the sofa and regarded his chips mournfully.

“Time for what?” Dan said.

“For the cat’s fur to grow back,” Alan said miserably.

“I beg your pardon?” Dan said.

“I went out for a few ales with Dufty after I dropped Pam off.” Alan ate another chip. “And the next morning I discovered I’d shaved Precious.”

“Do you mean Pam’s cat?” Dan asked in surprise.

“Yes, Precious the cat,” Alan nodded. “I’d shaved all her fur off. No idea why. I don’t even remember doing it.” His shoulders heaved. “I’ve made her a little jumper.”

Dan felt a powerful urge to laugh.

“Alan, Precious is at our house with Pam,” he said gently. “You brought her in her basket, remember?”

Through the cat flap climbed a fierce looking bald cat wearing a ragged tube sock. Dan looked at the cat, and the cat scowled back.

“If that’s not Precious,” Alan said nervously, “what is it?”

“It’s a sphynx cat.” Dan crouched down and examined the cat’s collar. “Her owners have been looking for her.”

“I’ve shaved a stranger’s cat!” Alan wailed.

Dan was about to explain that sphynx cats were supposed to be hairless when he stopped himself.

“I can fix this for you. No one need ever know,” he said instead. “But first, phone Pam and beg her to come home.”

“I owe you Dan.” Alan licked ketchup off his fingers. Staring warily at the cat he picked up his phone.

Yes you do, thought Dan, and said, “A box of chocolate liqueurs would be a good place to start.”

TOP TIPS FROM A DENTAL PROFESSIONAL

Oral Cancer Awareness

W

hen you go to the dentist you probably think that the dentist is just checking your teeth and possibly your gums. In more recent times your dentist is also obliged to provide an oral cancer check

by Christine Parker to verify there are no unusual or BDS (GDC 72136) worrying lesions in your mouth.

Women are used to checking their breasts on a regular basis for any suspicious lumps, however it’s a bit more tricky trying to see in your mouth. Most cancerous lesions present when they have spread to surrounding tissues and because of this it’s difficult to treat so 5 year survival rates are poor.

Perry’s BRITISH & CONTINENTAL HOLIDAYS

2018 TOURS DIANA: HER STORY 1st – 2nd April £169 / Single supp £42

DOWNTON ABBEY 22nd – 25th August £299 / single supp £87

PENZANCE 16th – 20th April £359

FIRST WORLD WAR BATTLEFIELDS TOUR 26th – 31st August £749 pp

Dentists want to change this, ideally we want to provide good lifestyle messages to reduce your risk and also to carefully examine the tissues inside your mouth for signs of oral cancer.

FORT WILLIAM STEAM & SAIL 21st – 25th May £459 / single supp £74

Risk factors include but are not limited to Smoking, Alcohol use and exposure to Human Papilloma Virus.

Signs of oral cancer vary hugely but any lesion that fails to resolve in 2 weeks should be investigated.

Oral cancer is increasing in younger people.

CAMBRIDGE WEEKEND 22nd – 24th June Bed & breakfast at the Cambridge Belfry Hotel £189 / single supp £47

Things that are not normally cancerous are painful ulcers that may happen repeatedly and heal within 3 weeks, white linear ridges which may run down the inside of each cheek these may be caused by tooth clenching or grinding. However white patches under the tongue should always be assessed.

KENT AND CANTERBURY 23rd – 27th July £395 / £71 single supp

Regularly going to the dentist allows the dentist to review your whole mouth and hopefully to spot any anomalies before they become a major problem.

For a full oral and dental check call Jan for an appointment.

Travel

The French Ardennes French Ardennes, Meuse valley, Monthermé Montherme©D.Truillard

viewpoints such as the ‘Cross of Hell’, a name which leaves plenty to the imagination. By clear weather, you might just see the Croix Scaille, at 503 metres the highest point in the French Ardennes.

The Meuse meanders on and on, revealing its most stunning panoramas when you follow the trails along the crest. For many visitors, the true icon of the valley is Monthermé, nestling crescent-shaped at the tip of a peninsula, stretching out like a green dragon’s tongue as the river almost closes a perfect loop.

The water glistens as blue as the sky and densely wooded hills roll as far as you can see in all shades of green. A path climbs through the forest to a series of precipitous rocks where you can look down on Monthermé and one of the most spectacular river loops in France.

I

n north-eastern France, the Regional Nature Park of the Ardennes rises towards the Belgian border, festooned in hills and vales, fast-flowing rivers, dramatic rocks, lush hedgerows and deep forests home to wild boar and deer. Haunted by ancient legends, laced with trails and glorious views, it is largely undiscovered and a haven for nature lovers, covering 117,000 hectares.

Trekking, cycling, horse riding, kayaking or sailing on the rivers, there are myriad ways to explore and maybe spot the beavers at work, a black stork or a peregrine falcon, a black woodpecker or a hazel grouse sitting on a branch. Wild orchids and carnivorous sundews peep here and there and golden broom and purple heather splash colour on the higher slopes. The scenery is forever changing but most endearing is the green finger of land pointing north and the valleys of the Meuse and its tributary the Semoy.

Tumbling down from the Belgium uplands, the Semoy meanders through verdant countryside on its way to the Nature Park across the border. There, from the village of Hautes-Rivières to the confluence with the Meuse, a 20km long cycle path follows every bend of the river, punctuated by rocky outcrops and

In the distance the silhouettes of the ‘Four Sons of Aymon’ rise on a rocky ridge above the village of Bogny. According to legend, the knights escaped from Charles the Great on a magic horse, taking refuge in the Ardennes where they were turned into rocks. In this fantastic landscape legends abound, from the Devil’s Castle to the Spinner’s Bench or the rocks of the Ladies of the Meuse, petrified for being unfaithful during the crusades. In the spring, Monthermé comes into its own with a popular festival dedicated to the legends of the Ardennes and the ‘little people’ who hide among the rocks.

Festival over, it is time to ramble along the trails, 47 of them from easy strolls to more demanding climbs, criss-crossing the park all the way to Givet at the northern tip, taking in the star-shaped citadel of Rocroi, the lakes, the laurel forest and the slate route around Fumay. The people of the valley are proud of their heritage and that includes the industry which remains a valuable source of income. Just like the wartime memories, it is part of the Ardennes but in this little corner of France, off the beaten track, you’ll discover sleepy villages of yellow or blue-tinged stone, fortified churches, castles, abbeys or isolated farms with a beautiful backdrop of verdant hills and valleys.

Someone's missing

W

hen I hear Noddy Holder’s voice declaring that ‘It’s Christmas!’ and asking me if I’ve hung my stocking up, then I know that Christmas is just around the corner. Now for me, when I hear Slade’s ‘Merry Christmas Everybody’, memories of my teenage years come flooding back.

Suddenly I’m surrounded by my friends again in various nightclubs, I’m at home late Christmas Eve waiting for midnight to arrive so that my family and I can start opening our presents and on Christmas day recall all of us looking forward to seeing the latest film release on the T.V. Yes, there was a time before downloads and Sky Movies when you just had to wait for the latest James Bond film to be broadcast!

As I spend time reflecting on those past years I find that I also recall the people who are no longer with us. This gives rise to the thought that ‘someone’s missing’. I experience a sense of loss and sadness which can result in me choosing to end my pleasant reflections and shut the memory tape down.

After all, this is Christmas, a time to be happy not sad. So, I determine to stop thinking about Mum, Dad and anyone else who is missing. Despite this, the feelings of sadness can tend to linger, and for some the sense of loss can become intense, even overwhelming. Also, I have removed the opportunity for me to reexperience the good times and feel the emotional warmth such memories can give me. Memories that can provide a balance to my sadness.

In my experience, times such as Christmas do tend to evoke my grief over the loss of someone dear to me and I have realised that at such times,

I have a choice. I can refuse to even think about that person and try to shut out the range of feelings associated with my grief, or acknowledge those emotions and allow myself to also recall the moments of joy, laughter and love I experienced with them. I found that by trying to avoid my feelings of loss I also took away the opportunity to refresh my experience of why I miss them and to celebrate the impact they had on me. This acceptance that someone is missing and my being able to choose to remember them with all the emotions that I experience has taken some time. I am now able to enjoy and welcome memories that before I strived to push away.

Christmas is one of those times when the loss of someone can be felt very strongly and I believe that, with help, it is possible to arrive at a place where the mix of our emotions will allow us to fully embrace the memory of that special someone who is missing. Plus, enjoy hearing Noddy Holder screaming at us: ‘It’s Christmas!!’.

New Year

By Father Antony Pritchett Vicar of Pickering and Marishes with Lockton and Levisham

A

t Epiphany (6th January) the Church celebrates the Feast of the Epiphany, best known for the mysterious Wise Men, who visit the infant Christ and bring him their strange gifts, symbolic in their meaning, of myrrh, pure incense and gold. Before that is, of course, New Year itself.

A New Year is a gift, a period of time given to us quite freely and to be used much as we would have it. Of course, things happen to us during that time of which we may have little say – things that disturb such as change in circumstances brought about by illness or unemployment, or positive change with the birth of a new baby or new relationship – but perhaps if we could learn to see these as a gift, that might help us in our response to each situation.

Indeed, to see each day as a gift to be opened and appreciated as well as just used can help us see our world in a wholly different way.

I wish you all a very Happy New Year.

These days most homeowners suffer from a lack of storage space. So many precious items that need to be kept – but where to store it all? That’s where Yorkshire Loft Ladders come in.

The company, based locally, offers homeowners the opportunity to maximise their storage space with a loft ladder, 50 sq ft of boarding and a light all fully fitted in less than a day from just £277 + VAT. But it’s not just the affordability of the package the company offers that makes Yorkshire Loft Ladders stand out as manager Mark Hodson explains: ‘Our watchwords are Quality,

Integrity and Value. Quality in the materials that we use for all our installations and the fact that all our loft packages are fitted by time served tradesmen so our customers are assured of the best job. Integrity in that we will turn up at the time we say and make sure the house is spotless when we leave, and Value in that we offer our services at a price people can afford. Our business relies on referrals and we got a huge amount of our calls from people who have been referred to us by our existing customers - that simply wouldn’t happen if we didn’t adhere to our overriding principles.

At the end of the day the old adage that happy customers

lead to more happy customers is true and we work hard to make that happen for every installation we carry out!’

So, if you want to make use of your loft space, however big or

small, call Mark on 0800 612 8359 and he’ll be happy to pop round and give you a no obligation quote so you too can make use of your loft!

Don't Drive into Trouble Abroad

very January, sure as night follows day, magazines come stuffed with pull-outs for summer holiday destinations.

It’s also that time when lesser known TV channels air programmes like “Drunk Brits Abroad” or “Costa Del Hell”. You know the kind of thing: footage of inebriated young Brits thinking that they can get away with whatever they want to on holiday, as they are abroad. Usually the shows finish with a post-script of how wrong they are, with nights in cells, court appearances and fines.

If you plan to drive on your holiday, perhaps taking the car to France, or hiring one in some other sunny location, be aware that, increasingly, local prosecutors are upping the ante when it comes to prosecuting foreign drivers who incur traffic offences.

In the last few years applications to the Home Office from foreign prosecutors to pursue traffic

offences made by UK registered drivers have risen 12 fold. For example, in 2014 less than 150 applications were made, yet 2016 saw that number top 1,600.

The likely rise is down to recent EU laws requiring nations to share a driver’s details; it works both ways of course. The UK will pass details of lawbreaking foreign drivers back to their home country too.

This stance is unlikely to change with Brexit either, since Switzerland has also signed up to the agreement.

So, gone are the days of “What happens on the N1, stays in France” as the Gendarme L’Auto (not sure if such a thing exists, but it sounds more exotic than French Traffic Police) could now pursue your misdemeanours even after your return.

“Your call is important, you are in a queue, Please hold the line till we get to you.”

Whilst waiting to talk to some fiscal shark, The frayed nerves are softened by J. S. Bach.

“Press one for a query, Two for accounts.”

Feeling weary, The tension mounts.

The recorded voice seems strangely robotic, Without conviction, yet somehow hypnotic.

The situation begins to worsen, What does it take to speak to a person?

“Press three if the matter concerns a payment, Four if you are the rightful claimant.”

The muzak has changed to the ‘Magic Flute,’ I’m still standing here, about to take root.

Even ‘The Lullaby’ by Brahms, Has lost its charm, and no longer calms.

Forgotten my original query, Feeling tired, my eyes are bleary, The requisite muzak, no longer cheery, Contemplating hara-kiri.

Gardening Gardener's Resolve need one. Store the pots away from sunlight to prevent the plastic disintegrating.

COVER IT UP! Make a resolution to dry off and cover up garden furniture once the summer is over, to protect it from rain, cold, ice or even fungi! Buy furniture covers or, better still, store the furniture in a shed or garage if you have one. Stored properly, it will last much longer.

Happy New Year! Now that 2018 is here, what are your garden resolutions for the year ahead? Here are my suggestions…

RE-CYCLE POTS Save all the pots and trays you get when buying plants and rinse them out to use next time you

GROW YOUR OWN Aim to grow more of your own fresh fruit, vegetables and herbs. This could be buying a couple of tomato plants for the first time, or creating a small herb planter, or it could be larger scale and more complex plans if you’re already big on grow-your-own. Don’t forget that there’s a great choice of UK-grown vegetable plants plus my weekly advice and tips emails at www. pippagreenwood.com/grow-your-own.

68

COMPOST MORE Once you get in the swing of it, composting becomes second nature. Make sure you include kitchen waste such as vegetable peelings, apple cores. The amount of extra compost you’ll generate will be well worthwhile. Many local councils offer a good deal on basic plastic composters.

USE THAT SPACE! If you have a cold frame, porch, conservatory or greenhouse, put it to use! Any sort of protected growing area has the ability to increase what you can grow and when you can grow it. So raise your own summer flowers in it, force some bulbs in it in the winter or make off-season sowings of salad crops…make it work, but whatever you do, don’t use it as the family rubbish dump!

MULCH MORE Make use of any organic matter that is bulky – mulch with it. Whether it is well-rotted manure, garden compost, the used compost from a seasonal bedding display or growing bag, or leaf mould, make it into mulch! Applied a couple of

inches or more deep over the soil surface, a mulch like this will improve the soil’s ability to conserve moisture (so saving you both watering time and water) and may also help to keep weeds at bay. A win-win situation.

PAUSE BEFORE YOU BUY When you’re looking through the seed, plant and bulb catalogues, browsing online or wandering around a garden centre, pause before you buy. I know I’m not alone in having eyes that are much bigger than my plot! It is very easy to order more seeds than you’ll ever be able to sow and plants that you’ll never be able to squeeze into your garden.

SEASONAL SAVER Make sure you recycle your Christmas tree. Real trees can be recycled at locations up and down the country – many garden centres and councils offer the service. The trees will be shredded and added to other green materials to make a great soil conditioner and planting mix. www.pippagreenwood.com

Heart disease in pets

by Battle Flatts Veterinary Clinic

Heart disease is unfortunately a common illness in middle-aged and elderly pets, and there are a number of signs you can keep an eye out for to ensure you catch it early...

W

ith Valentine’s Day around the corner, you can’t walk down the high street without seeing red hearts in every shop window, but it’s not often we think about our pets’ tickers!

as fluid builds up within the abdomen. This can be a sign of a number of other problems as well but is definitely worth getting checked by your vet.

Heart disease is unfortunately a common illness in middle-aged and elderly pets, and there are a number of signs you can keep an eye out for to ensure you catch it early:

If you notice any of these signs in your pet, your vet will often be able to identify a number of common heart problems on physical examination alone, so booking an appointment for a check over is a great first step. In recent years, heart disease has become much more treatable with new drugs being developed all the time, so if you are worried about your furry friend’s ticker, get in touch with your vets today!

Coughing. If your pet has a cough for more than a couple of weeks, this could be an early sign of heart disease. Typically, the cough is more noticeable at night and after your pet has been sleeping.

CONSERVATORY SPECIALIST

Difficulty breathing. Normally, cats will breathe through their noses, and if you notice your feline friend is breathing through their mouth or looks like they’re panting, this is often a sign that something is wrong. If your cat is breathing through their mouth, you should get in contact with your vets as soon as possible. In dogs, this is more difficult to notice as they pant as a natural way of cooling down, however, if you notice noisy or very fast breathing, this could be a sign of heart disease and a check over with your vet wouldn’t go a miss.

Reluctance to Exercise. If your dog seems less keen to go on walks, or frequently stops to catch their breath while out, this could be another sign of early heart disease.

Fainting. This can be a common sign of heart disease in both dogs and cats. Usually this will happen during exercise but it can be at any time.

A Swollen Tummy. Dogs and cats with heart disease will sometimes develop a swollen tummy,

DOG OF THE MONTH: BELLE Belle is approximately 8 months old and is a German Shepherd x. She’s had a lot of changes in her short life before ending up in a council stray pound so can be nervous of new people and new situations. She would suit a home without small children due to her size and playfulness.

Belle gets on well with other dogs and once she feels safe is very attentive to people. Due to her unstable start in life we are looking for a home where someone is around most of the time to help her make up for lost time. If you think Belle would make a welcome addition to your life, please call 07581 324153 for more information.

Viewings welcome by appointment

For further information on Ryedale Dog Rescue please visit our website www. ryedaledogrescue.com or you can contact us on 07581 324153 (Please remember we are a charity run entirely by unpaid volunteers, most of whom work full-time, so please be patient and we will return your call as soon as possible.

Winter hazards - Anti-freeze poisoning Dr Sarah Hunter B.Vet Med MRCVS Station House Vets their coats. Being fastidious groomers, cats are likely to accidently consume the pollen whilst licking their coats clean. Immediate action to remove the pollen from their coat is required with lukewarm soapy water. Do telephone your veterinary practice for advice. Many cats will vomit following consumption of parts of a lily (tell your vet if this has occurred) but further monitoring, possibly making the cat sick and fluid therapy may be required to ensure your cat does not develop kidney failure.

VINE FRUITS: FRESH FRUITS, GRAPE JUICE OR DRIED E.G. RAISINS, CURRANTS

Antifreeze is a substance many of us will have available this time of the year particularly in the form of screen wash. The active ingredient is ethylene glycol which is both extremely toxic to dogs and cats and unfortunately sweet tasting. Cats are even more susceptible to its toxic effects than dogs and they are less likely to be observed ingesting antifreeze.

If you think your pet might have drunk some antifreeze, swift action is essential. Please note the time and how much you think your pet might have swallowed, telephone your vet for advice and get your pet there. Vets can administer a drug by injection, that will fairly reliably make your pet sick to stop them absorbing at least some of the product but in the case of antifreeze this needs to happen very fast.

Your pet will also most likely require a blood sample, fluid therapy via a catheter into their limb and may require specific antidote therapy. The first sign of a problem in cats may be that they are very unwell, vomiting, weak and unsteady. Again, please contact your veterinary surgeon.

Do be very careful where and how you store antifreeze and take care to mop up or wash away any spillage.

LILIES

All parts of the lily plant (Lilium or Hemerocallis species) can be toxic if consumed by cats. Cut flower arrangements can pose a risk to cats.

Commonly a cat may brush past the flower and pollen from the prominent stamens can be left on

Both fresh and dried vine fruits, on their own or contained in, fruit cakes for example, can cause acute kidney disease in dogs which may only become apparent a day or two later. Avoid giving and discourage others from offering your dog titbits containing vine fruits. If your dog has eaten these fruits do telephone your veterinary surgery for advice. It is helpful to know the approximate amount your dog may have eaten, and when.
