A local vets has stopped taking new clients due to staff shortages and increased demand.
The Arg Beiyn practice said since lockdown there has been a surge in the number of pet owners on the island.
That, coupled with a shortage of vets, has forced a change in services.
The practice said it is currently unable to register new clients but will try to provide emergency treatment wherever possible.
A spokesman added that, at the moment, they are unable to provide 'non-essential.' animal health certificates for travel.
Arg Beiyn hopes these changes will be temporary and has thanked clients for understanding.
