Wilston Vet is calling for respondents to a class action lawsuit for pets who have been Christmas-injured. πŸŽ„β„οΈ

This lawsuit will include; pets who have been traumatised by dress-ups, tricked by presents (eg empty boxes wrapped to look like a present), had their image used on a family Christmas card without their written permission or made to interact with a large bearded guy in a red suit who is frankly quite frightening. πŸŽ…πŸ» 🎁

Here is a small selection of the victims so far and their claims.

Please add your photo and name to the list and how you have been Christmas-injured. Our lawyers will be in contact with you in the new year.

Disclaimer: no pets were harmed in the making of this post. But several were very embarrassed. 🐢 😺

πŸˆβ€β¬› πŸŽƒ πŸˆβ€β¬› HAPPY HALLOWEEN πŸˆβ€β¬›πŸŽƒ πŸˆβ€β¬›

We hope all our clients and furry friends have a spooktacular day tomorrow but remember that Trick or Treating is for humans only !

This is a friendly reminder to avoid all lollies and other products that may contain the artificial sweetener Xylitol as it is highly toxic to dogs even in small amounts

Xylitol is a naturally occurring substance that is used as a substitute for sugar in a range of foods and drinks and can quickly drop a dog’s blood sugar, which can be life-threatening if left untreated. Possible symptoms include: vomiting, weakness, disorientation, seizures & coma

Foods and drinks which can contain Xylitol include: sweets/lollies, mints, gum, baked goods, chocolate, ice-cream, medications, jam, juices, drink powders and supplements and rarely in peanut butter

If you suspect your dog has eaten any lollies or other products that may contain Xylitol please call us (33573882) or our friends at Pet Emergency 24hrs a day for advice on 33590777. You can also call the Australian Animal Poisons Hotline for free advice from 9-5pm every day on 1300869738. Useful links can be found below:

www.animalpoisons.com.au

Now you might wonder why our poster boy Charles looks so pleased with himself . . . well that is because cats so far do not appear to suffer any ill-effects from Xylitol and also he looks absolutely stunning in his new Halloween outfit !

We would love to see your pets in their spookiest outfits so please post below and have a Happy Halloween 🐾❀️

Adding a little Possum Magic to your day β˜€οΈ

Whilst baby Ringtail Possums are usually asleep in their mother’s pouch or their drey (nest) during the day, this little darling met with some misadventure so she was brought into the clinic for care until she could be transferred to the RSPCA wildlife team 🐾❀️

PART 2: Molly

Say hello to Molly and Bronx - two very sweet and savvy pooches. They may be vastly different in size but they have two things in common - they are both the sweetest doggos who crave cuddles and human affection and they both now have a mouth full of pearly white teeth after taking advantage of our August Dental Health Month Discount

Molly and Bronx have very committed owners who recently noticed a build up of calculus on their teeth so booked them in for a comprehensive oral examination under anaesthesia and a thorough scale and polish. Bronx also required the removal of a few benign gingival growths and extraction of his gigantic lower canine tooth that had pulpitis (inflammation in the pulp cavity of the tooth which eventually becomes very painful and causes a tooth root abscess)

We are pleased to report both Molly and Bronx are recovering well and that their owners were very pleased that their dental treatment was 10% less than expected due to our dental promotion this month. If you would like to take advantage of our limited time offer and ensure your pet’s oral health, book in now for your free oral health assessment and 10% discount on all dental treatments. Please be advised that spaces are limited so please contact us ASAP 🦷🐾❀️

This is handsome Lucky who presented for a dental procedure and complete oral health examination

All dental procedures are performed under anaesthesia and involve a complete oral health examination as well as a scale and polish. Dental xrays are performed when required and a dental chart is created, documenting your pet’s oral health status. All patients receive dedicated nursing care (including cuddles !) throughout their procedure and recovery

From now until August 31st this year your pet may be eligible to receive a 10% discount on dental procedures. Please contact the clinic to discuss the dental care options for your pet 🦷🐾❀️

Beautiful Jinky is a 6yr old Ridgeback who presented for surgery to have a raised pigmented mass removed from her right fore paw

The mass was measured and then surgically removed via sterile technique. The mass was then placed in a fixative solution and submitted for histopathology (laboratory analysis)

The photos in the second slide show this process and include the photograph from the laboratory of the microscopic cells that make up the mass. The mass was diagnosed as a Cutaneous Melanocytoma, considered to be a benign (non malignant) mass and thankfully complete surgical excision is usually curative

Jinky was the sweetest and bravest patient 🐾❀️

🌏🐾 WORLD VETERINARY DAY 🐾🌏

Today we celebrate the veterinarians who dedicate their lives to caring for your beloved pets

The World Veterinary Association states that the theme for the 2024 World Veterinary Day is that veterinarians are essential health workers, and that the application of veterinary science contributes not only to animal health and well-being, but also to human physical, social and mental well-being

Our veterinarians spend hours reading, researching and attending lectures, conferences and workshops to ensure that every time they are making a recommendation for your pet, the professional advice and surgical procedure provided is based on absolute best practice guidelines to ensure the best outcome for you and your pet

Thank you to our vets for the time you dedicate to caring for our Wilston Vet community 🐾❀️

A tale of chocolate regret …. Handsome Milo was very mischievous and found the chocolate stash at home !

Thankfully Milo’s wonderful family discovered his transgression and brought him straight into the clinic so we could administer medication to make him bring the chocolate back up before a chocolate toxicity occurred. An anti-nausea medication was then administered to make him feel better again

The following series of photos demonstrate Milo’s instant regret and eventual return to his sweet and happy self

πŸ“· #1: Mischievous Milo
πŸ“· #2: It’s all a blur ….
πŸ“· #3: Chocolate regret
πŸ“· #4: Milo is sweet enough without sweets

Please remember to keep your chocolate and Easter treats away from your pets this Easter - if any cheeky pets find your supply despite your best efforts, please contact the clinic immediately or the Pet Emergency if out of clinic hours 🐾❀️
