November is !

Did you know our furry friends can develop diabetes too? Just like in humans, it’s a condition that requires awareness, care and early detection.

Here are some common signs to look out for:
🐾 Excessive thirst or urination
🍽️ Changes in appetite
⚖️ Sudden weight loss or gain
😴 Low energy or lethargy
🩺 Weakness or unsteady walking

If you notice any of these symptoms, book a vet check-up. With proper management, pets with diabetes can still enjoy long and healthy lives 💕

🐈 PSA from your local cats: Ticks don’t just affect dogs!

While cats might not roam tick-prone areas as much, they can still get ticks, and protecting them isn’t as simple as sharing your dog’s tick treatment.

Unlike dogs, cats are highly sensitive to many tick and flea products. Ingredients like pyrethrin and permethrin, often safe for dogs, are toxic to cats and can cause tremors, drooling, or even seizures.

Here’s what every cat owner should know:
✅ Use only cat-safe tick prevention recommended by your vet
✅ Check your cat daily for ticks, especially around the head and neck
✅ Act fast if you notice wobbliness, paralysis, loss of appetite, laboured breathing, or changes in their “meow”

If you suspect tick paralysis, seek emergency veterinary care immediately.

Did you know dogs can suffer heatstroke even at 24°C? Dogs don't sweat like we do, so they can only rely on panting and shade to stay cool.

Keep your pets safe by:
🚫 Never leave pets unattended in parked cars
🚗 Plan car trips – keep the car cool, ensure frequent stops and water is available
☀️ Avoid exercise during the warmest times of the day
🏠 Don’t leave pets inside hot, closed homes or garages
🐾 Avoid walking pets on hot sand, concrete, bitumen, or any other surfaces where heat is reflected
💧 Keep your dog well hydrated with easy access to cool water
⚠️ Watch for early signs of heatstroke

If your dog shows any of the signs of heatstroke, act fast: Move them to a cooler area, offer small amounts of water, and contact your vet immediately.

For more information about heat stroke, see the link in the comments.

We had an amazing time at the Bryants Road Vet Open Day this weekend!

The freshly renovated clinic looked fantastic, and the team ran informative tours showcasing their services and sharing valuable tips on pet preventative health care.

A huge thank you to Dr Caroline Kerr and her passionate team for inviting us to be part of the event 🙌

We also loved teaming up with Veterinary Specialist Services at our shared stall to promote the Underwood Hospital

It was great to connect with so many local pet owners and celebrate the amazing work being done in our community. 🐾

🌟🐾 What a Day at Dogs on the Green – Wynnum! 🐾🌟

Wow!! What an incredible day out! The Animal Emergency Service Underwood and Pet ICU teams loved every minute of the very first Dogs on the Green at George Clayton Park, Wynnum. 🐶🌳

✨ We got to:
✔️ Cuddle countless cute (and cheeky!) pups 🐕
✔️ Chat with amazing pet parents about after-hours care 🏥
✔️ Become “honorary members” of the Irish Wolfhound & Great Dane clubs (big paws, even bigger hearts!) 💙

We’re so grateful to everyone who stopped by! Your stories, questions, and support made the day unforgettable. Events like these remind us why we’re here: to support you and your furry family when you need us most. 💕
