⭐️⭐️BIG NEWS & EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY ⭐️⭐️
As of next month we be a 2.5 vet practice. Maybe Dr Kristian can work less hours 🤔😂 That’s 3 vets 😃.

Introductions to come but our two new vets are amazing. Some of you may have already met both of them.

This means we need more staff.
We are looking for nurses and a receptionist to join our team as both surgery and consultations are already increasing. Hopefully this will reduce wait times.

We are looking for enthusiastic, hard working people who thrive in a team environment and are happy to consider those studying or looking for a career change. We are also losing some of our best staff as they continue their study to become veterinarians very soon so start times can be from now onwards to allow time to train new people.

Please send your resume to the following email:

🐍 Snake Bites 🐍

As the weather gets warmer we are seeing more snake bite patients ; here are some things to look out for:

🐶 dogs often present with;
- dilated pupils
- bleeding from the mouth, a**s and or v***a / p***s
- exessive salivating
- body tremors / seizures
- become lethargic / lose mobility
- red or brown coloured urine
- difficulty breathing and respiratory issues

🐱 cats often present with;
- body becoming "plastic" and floppy
- dilated pupils
- red or brown coloured urine
- difficulty breathing and respiratory issues

‼️ What to do if bitten / suspected bite‼️

- Keep your fur baby calm and call the closest vet ASAP.
- Time is VITAL with snake bites so please act quickly but safely

‼️ Precaution and Prevention ‼️

- keep gardens and grasses in your yard tidy, so there's less hiding places for snakes

- keep vigilant when taking dogs on walks during this time of year, yes even in suburban areas.

- Make sure you don't have any leaking taps, open water sources or rubbish piled up on your property as it will attract snakes.

⭐️⭐️ Clinic closure over Christmas ⭐️⭐️
Holden Hill Vet will be closed from -
23/12/24 and will reopen on 30/12/24.

We have never done this before but have decided Dr Kristian and staff need a break.
Any animals in hospital on the last Saturday will need to be transferred to another hospital if required as there won’t be staff to take care of them.

We apologise for any inconvenience during this time but we need to take care of our head vet who hasn’t had a week off since 🤔🤔🤔 who knows..

We will all return bright eyed and bushy tailed on the 30th of December.

For those lucky clients who have acquired Dr Kristian’s personal mobile number or nurses phone numbers, including messenger we ask you to give them a break during this period 😊

🌸Wholesome Story🌸

Meet Mr. Cass and Beans the kitty 🐱
We had Beans in last week for a desexing surgery and we thought he would be the perfect fit for one of our lovely clients! 🫶🏼
Tday we arranged for Mr. Cass to come meet Beans and they both fell in love and quickly became inseparable. 🩷 We are so happy for the both of them to have each other, Beans was in need of a forever home and Mr. Cass had so much love to give but just needed someone to give it to.

We want to say a big thankyou to Paws Hillbank Haven Rescue for looking after Beans up untill now, and being so happy for this adoption! They were so kind as to let Beans go free of charge to his forever owner out of their pure love and happiness for Beans 🥰
