Are these the the cutest lunch buddies- Squirt and Taco, 9 week old guinea pig babies?

Nurse Ella was surprised when one of her rescues popped out these adorable little surprises.
Their favourite hobbies are watching tv while snuggling and doing the zoomies.

Vet checks included a hug from Dr Jarrod . 🥔

Bib, a one-year-old goat , was found tangled in a creek fence, cold and unable to use her front legs. She was rushed to Dr. Jarrod, who thankfully found no fractures or major injuries—just a low temperature and a poor appetite from the stress of the ordeal.

A couple of days of being pampered inside and hand fed and this little lady was back on her feet, bright, curious and full of her cheeky personality again.
What a lucky girl! 🐐

Many items around the home pose a risk for our pets. Here is a great list of products and their potential side effects. Contact either clinic immediately if you think your pet has had any exposure 🚨

🚨 Potential Pet Toxins!🚨

Many everyday items around our homes can be dangerous —or even deadly— for our pets. From chocolate and onions to snail bait and ticks, it’s important to know what to keep out of reach 🐶🐾

September brought us lots of inedible surprises- most needing surgery however a few passed with vomits. It was always a surprise while operating wondering what we were going to find.

We had a dog that ate a chicken skewer, stick included, a cat that ate an anklet, a dog that ate squishy-mallow toys and a scrunchie and dogs that at a corn cob, some rocks and a pair of socks.
Yum! Yum! 🌽🧦🧸🎀💍

Here are some photos of the team looking after some of the patients, our finds and their procedures. 🚑

We also have an AirTag found outside our front door. If any of these are yours, please call Austinmer vets on 4268 3353 and we can reunite you 🧸
