WARMER WEATHER IS UPON US!!!

And along with spring time, we see more baby birds. Unfortunately, not all baby birds stay in the nest until they can fly properly. They often find themselves out of the nest and helpless on the ground.

Quite often when we see this, we want to help them. The best way to do this is to leave the fledging alone and watch from a distance, as the parents are usually nearby and will still be feeding the bird. Being on the ground is total normal for fledglings; it’s how they learn to take care of themselves and interact with the big world around them!

We only recommend bringing them in to us if they are visibly injured in any way or if you feel they have been abandoned. If you find they could be in an unsafe area (vulnerable to cats, dogs, etc), you can try and pop them back into the tree and see if the parents take notice.

We thank the community for being mindful of these little ones!

Have you lost your pet Rainbow Lorikeet ?
We currently have a friendly lorikeet in our care who was luckily dropped into the clinic on Tuesday. If you are missing your lorikeet and are reasonably local to our clinic, please give us a call on 83655010 to discuss whether your description matches! The parrot is an obvious pet and can talk with distinguishable phrases that may help identify them and reunite them with their owner. 🦜

Bentley's run in with the spicy fly!
Bentley is a beautiful golden retriever puppy who was stung by a bee yesterday. His owner rushed him down to us. Dr. Conor removed the stinger and treated him with an anti-histamine and anti-inflammatory.
Sometimes the swelling becomes life threatening so Bentley stayed in with us for monitoring for a few hours. He had a lovely day and even fell asleep in his water bowl (swipe).
Over the afternoon Bentley's swelling reduced dramatically and he was happily discharged.
Spring has sprung and that means more bees around! Keep a close eye on your pets when playing outside.

Please phone the clinic (8365 5010) or DM us if you'd like any more info on the beautiful Shelley.

Shelley is a nine year old Greyhound who is looking for a home to live out her senior years. Shelley is very full of life and is a very spritely girl for her age. She is cat and dog friendly but would need to be supervised around small dogs as she doesn’t realise her size. Shelley is in fantastic health however does need weekly medication for a minor hormone issue. Please let me know if you would like to give this gorgeous girl a home. 😊
