Burgess Pet Care has announced their sponsorship of the free Rodent Neutering webinar, taking place on Tuesday 5th December, helping us to understand the advantages and health benefits of neutering.

Sponsored by Burgess Pet Care and led by Advanced Practitioner in Zoological Medicine and Veterinary Surgeon, Dr Sophie Jenkins BVetMed PgC EAS CertExAP MRCVS, the webinar will carefully guide participants through the science of rodent neutering, the reasons for neutering, the practical options and health benefits.

The free webinar will cover several learnings:

  1. Be able to sex rodents
  2. Understand why we neuter rodents
  3. Understand the option for surgical approach (with images)
  4. Understand how neutering can reduce various hormonal related problems
  5. Understand the post operative care

Charlotte Varley, Communications Manager at Burgess Pet Care, said: -

"We're proud that we're able to support the fantastic work of the veterinary sector as we strive to raise awareness and help educate others on rodent welfare. We know these species are often overlooked for neutering so we were keen to get involved in this initiative."

The webinar will start at 8pm on Tuesday 5th December. To register for the webinar, and save your seat or for more information, please visit the webinarvet website here.
