Celebrities doodle bandanas for charity
Stephen Fry doodle
Stephen Fry's doodle has proved to be the most popular so far.
Pet Blood Bank auction will raise vital funds over Christmas

Celebrities are testing their artistic ability by doodling bandanas for Pet Blood Bank. Doodles by Stephen Fry and TV vets Noel Fitzpatrick and Marc Abraham are among those available for auction online.

Pet Blood Bank is the UK's only charity that collects, processes and stores canine blood donations, to be supplied to veterinary practices.

The bandana doodle campaign hopes to raise vital funds to support the charity's work in the run up to Christmas.

The first batch of artwork went up for auction on eBay last week, with Stephen Fry's doodle (pictured) proving to be the most popular so far. Other bandanas feature artwork by Channel 4's Supervet Noel Fitzpatrick, TV vet Mark Evans and actresses Jodie Prenger and Lu Corfield.

Bidding closes on Friday afternoon, when a new batch of doodles will be put up.

To view or bid on the bandanas, visit http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/petbloodbank/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_ipg=&_from=

New form for online veterinary medicines retailers

The Veterinary Medicines Directorate (VMD) has produced a new online form for retailers wishing to sell veterinary medicines on the internet.

The form replace the previous Word version and is part of the VMD's ongoing commitment to digitise its processes. Anyone retailing prescription medicines online, including POM-V, POM-VPS and NFA-VPS categories, is lawfully required to register with the VMD before trading.

The change only applies to new applicants. Retailers already listed on the VMD's Register of Online Retailers or registered under the Accredited Internet Retailer Scheme (AIRS) do not need to do anything.
