At just three days old, these tiny kittens were found in a critical condition and in desperate need of care. One of our dedicated vets took them in, feeding them every two hours for weeks and giving them the round-the-clock love they needed to survive. Thanks to that commitment, these little fighters have grown strong, healthy, and full of personality — and now they’re finally ready to go to their new families.

Do you think one of them could be your FOREVER Christmas present? 🎄🐾

Can you spot Dr. Tim and Nurse Sarah at the recent conference at The University of Queensland?
They spent two days at the Gatton campus updating their skills on the latest surgical techniques for Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome (BOAS).

Many flat-faced breeds — such as French Bulldogs, Pugs, and Boston Terriers — are born with anatomy that can make breathing difficult. Snoring, loud breathing, and overheating can all be signs of BOAS.

If your pet shows any of these symptoms, book in for a check-up with our wonderful team today.

Horse dentals are an important part of maintaining your horse’s overall health and wellbeing. Regular dental checks can help prevent issues such as difficulty eating, weight loss, bit discomfort, and even behavioral problems. Over time, a horse’s teeth naturally wear unevenly, which can cause sharp edges or dental pain if left untreated. Routine dental care ensures your horse can eat comfortably, perform at their best, and stay happy and healthy. It’s also important to make sure your horse is up to date with their Hendra vaccinations before their appointment to help keep both your horse and our team safe. If your horse is due for a dental or vaccination, call Vet Cross today on 4151 5004 to book an appointment. 🐴🩺
