Hello everyone!!
Although ticks are out all year round, we find them most prominent during these up coming months. (august to february)
The paralysis tick is the main tick we are concerned about as it causes death within a few hours if untreated.
We need to protect your kitties and doggos during this season by ensuring they have had their preventative treatment. These can be bought over the counter at our clinic.
If you find a tick on your loved one, remove it immediately and put it in a zip lock bag and head to us straight away with the tick.
If after hours go to your closest emergency vet.
24hr animal hospital. 34 Groggs road, Jindalee QLD 4074
Signs of tick paralysis can include loss of bark, wobbly in back legs, unable to stand, disinterest in food and water and raspy breathing.
take care of yourself and your furry family 🐾
