Happy International Dog Day! 🎊
Today we celebrate the invaluable contribution dogs make to our lives: Loyal companions, assistance dogs, or working dogs that continue to protect us everyday.
So take the time today to celebrate the unforgettable bond you share with your best friend 🐾🦴
🚨 The countdown is on 🚨
‼️ 1 week to go ‼️
Next week is our last week in Mining street and there are a few changes to how we operate as we prepare for the big move:
✅ Monday, August 26th to Wednesday, August 28th: Open for consultations but no surgery.

❌ Thursday 29th & Friday, August 30th - CLOSED

The big move is not far away now! Next week is the last week we will be in the Mining Street Clinic.
A couple of important reminders for everyone:
⭐️ We will be closed next Thursday and Friday (29th & 30th) and then reopening in the new Brisbane Road Clinic on Monday 2nd September.
⭐️ Please think ahead and get any REPEAT MEDICATION requests in ASAP. We will not be able to dispense medication on the days we are closed.

“Dot, Floss, Timmy and Kurbee” are rugged up in their raincoats while being out in all this recent rain! 🌧️
During this wet weather remember to keep your furry friends safe and warm.. 🩵
💫 Nahla 💫
This sweet little girl was so well behaved for her first visit today, she hasn’t been with her family long but has already captured their heart 💓
Her furmums favourite milestone, and most impressive yet, is definitely her “Spider-Man jumps” 🥰
🚨 🚨 WE ARE MOVING! 🚨 🚨
We are extremely excited to announce that Little Critters will be relocating to a bigger and better location‼️
🏥 New clinic opening date: Monday, September 2nd.
📍 191 Brisbane Road, Booval.
(previously known as “Gibb Accountants”)
We are still operating with our usual business hours until we close on Thursday August 29 to start the moving process.
🅿️ Available in our dedicated carpark via McGrath Lane.
📞 Will remain the same: 07 3816 0210.
Over the upcoming weeks we will keep you all updated with clinic operations in preparation for the big move 🙌🏻
Thankyou for all your continued support and we look forward to sharing this new chapter with you all 🩵 Please don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any questions .
Our pets have so many milestones throughout their life that are worth celebrating;
The first vet visit 🏥
Hitting that goal weight 🦴
or celebrating that first senior birthday 🎁
So if it’s your first time in the clinic or you visit us regularly, ask the nurses if they can snap a photo of your pet and tell us your favourite milestone so we can share them for all our Little Critters Family to see 🥰
✨ This week was Bella’s first visit with us and her tail never stopped wagging, she even left with a smile! ✨
We thought everyone would like their daily dose of cuteness to be from “Olive” 🥰
She has recently joined her new furever family and even though her first visit involved having a blood test, she was so brave for Dr Anna! (All the treats helped but shhh that’s her little secret 🤫) 💞
🚨 Dr Anna is running solo this week whilst Dr Mel is away on a holiday, so our opening hours for this week will be 7:30-5:30pm.
Our extended Thursday night hours will recommence as usual next week.
Thankyou for your understanding ☀️
After being in our care over the past few months, we are happy to share that Milton has been adopted! 🥰 We all know everyone will miss seeing him as much as we will but we are so happy he has found his furever family 💞
We are extremely proud that Little Critters has taken home one of the Bundamba Small Business Awards for 2024 🎉
The Little Critters team would like to commend Dr Mel on this achievement ✨ You have not only built a practice that’s dedicated to the health and well being of all our furry friends but you have also aided in the foundation of an ever growing family from the small streets of bundamba all the way to the greater Ipswich region. ✨
Thankyou to our local community for your continued support, and congratulations to Bruce! We look forward to seeing you and your best friend at your next visit 🎊
Have you been waiting for cat vaccines to arrive back in stock?

On the 28th of March ‘Kit’ presented to the clinic completely collapsed and non-responsive after being bitten by a Red Belly Black snake 🐍 at home.
He was so severely affected by the venom that we weren’t sure if he was going to pull through……
but after nearly three weeks in hospital and a following two weeks of supportive care at home by his very dedicated owner ‘Kit’ is well on his way to a full recovery. Such a tough little guy❤️❤️❤️
Today we celebrate World Veterinary Day! 😇
🗓️ This day is celebrated annually and was created by The World Veterinary Association to acknowledge and celebrate the efforts provided by veterinarians towards animal health and wellbeing around the world.
Dr Mel and Dr Anna advocate daily for our furry legged companions that are unable to speak for themselves and they both constantly go above and beyond to ensure they receive the care that they need. ❤️🩹
Whilst we can all acknowledge that you help all animals that walk through the clinic doors, you both also contribute towards the physical and mental wellbeing of humans as well and for that we all say thankyou! 🥰
Morning everyone🌞…. Just some housekeeping.
As the days get shorter, we have had less interest in our Thursday late nights. As a result, we have decided to be open BY APPOINTMENT ONLY from 5.30pm-7.30 pm on Thursday nights so that we can head home if we have no appointments booked. 🌈…. Photo of Maude for fb tax❤️
Milton says it’s play time! 🧶 Not paperwork time! 📝
Milton is still available for adoption, if you are interested in adopting please come into clinic or email us for an application form 🥰
‼️ GREAT NEWS ‼️
We have been finally able to stock some cat vaccines.
If you want to book your cat in, please give us a call on 07 3816 0210. 🐱
🚨 Unfortunately due to staff shortages we will be closing at 6pm tomorrow evening. We will reopen as usual on Friday morning at 7:30am. Thankyou for your understanding.
Hi! My name is Milton! 🐾
I am a very loving and sweet young man, on the hunt for my new family.
I love to play and cuddle, and will happily lap up all your attention 🥰
I am currently living with a beautiful foster family, so you can’t come and meet me just yet but if you think I might be a good fit into your family: Little Critters is now taking applications for my adoption. YAY!!
My adoption fee is $200, which includes any vaccinations due before adoption, microchipping and desexing.
I expect I will be pretty popular (how could I not with a face like this? 😇) so you will need to complete an application form and then the Little Critters Ladies will choose the home best suited to my needs. 🏡
If you would like an application form, please email [email protected] or you can collect one directly from the clinic.
Thanks! I can’t wait to meet my new family. 🩵
Little Critters is closing at 6.30 pm tonight…. We will be open at 7.30 am in the morning😊
**update - the phones are up and working.**
📞 We are having phone issues this morning, we are currently trying to rectify this issue immediately. Please don’t hesitate to contact us via Facebook message, email or call and leave a voicemail if urgent.
We will update you when the issue is resolved, Thankyou 📞
🐣 Little Critters will be closed for the long Easter weekend, we remain open for our usual extended hours tomorrow evening but close Friday 29th and return Tuesday April 2nd at 7:30am. ☀️
If you have any emergencies during this time AES & ARH at Jindalee remain open.
Have a happy and safe Easter 🐣 🐾
‼️ Please remember that snakes are still out in full force even as the temperatures are slowly dropping‼️
On Wednesday the Little Critters team were unlucky
enough to have not only 1 but 2 dogs rushed into the
clinic after being bitten by a snake 🐍
Hank was found with a snake in his mouth but his
owners didn’t hesitate and brought him in immediately.
Snake bite patients need to be kept calm and
unfortunately poor Hank couldn’t stop stressing in his
cage so Nurse Chloe sat with him whilst monitoring
him for the afternoon, just providing him with that little
bit of company he needed 🐾
If you think your pet has been bitten, don’t wait.. every
second counts ⏳
📣Have you checked that your pet’s microchip details are up to date❓
When your dog or cat is microchipped the number on the chip is recorded against the owners details and kept on file at the microchip registry. This registry is separate from council and completely independent of veterinary clinics and any details recorded in our software.
At Little Critters we estimate that around 40% of the pets that we scan when they arrive at the clinic have microchips that are not up to date with the correct owner details or are still in the previous owners name.
Unfortunately if these details aren’t updated you can’t be contacted if your pet goes missing.
To ensure a happy reunion we recommend the following:
✅ Locate your pets microchip number. If you are unsure we are more than happy to scan and provide you with the number.
✅ use the petaddress.com.au search engine and enter your pets microchip number. This will provide you with the database the details are registered with.
✅ Complete a change of ownership or update your current details.
✅ If you or your pet has relocated from NSW then it’s recommended to organise a new registration for your pets microchip as the NSW microchip registry isn’t able to be accessed here in QLD.
We are not legally able to change your details here in clinic as it is your responsibility but we can happily point you in the right direction if you need assistance 🐶
Simply type the microchip number in the search field; then click to search. If your number is found in one of the databases you will be directed to the database for further information.
🚨Due to Dr Mel enjoying a well deserved adventure till mid next week, we are unable to be open for our extended hours tonight so we will be closing at 5:30pm.
If you have an emergency or your pet needs to be seen urgently, please contact ARH on 07 3172 0593.
😺 Important update for our Feline parents 😺
There is still a nation wide shortage of feline vaccinations due to supply chain issues after COVID, it is unknown at this stage how long this will continue into 2024 🙁.
If you have any current concerns about your cats health, we still urge you to schedule your cat’s annual health check.
We will keep you updated on facebook on the availability of feline vaccines. In the mean time if you have any concerns please don’t hesitate to get in touch with our friendly team. 07 3816 0210
Just some super cuteness for your Thursday …… Dr Mel’s puppy Maude is taking ‘sit’ very seriously😎
We love how every member of our Little Critters Family is unique! 😇
Unfortunately we don’t get to post a photo of every pet that walks through our door, although we do try our best.. So we invite everyone to post their own photo below with their pets biggest smile 🐶🐱

Our feline friends can sometimes be hard to read, cats can suffer from arthritis pain too! They may loose interest in playing with toys, find it more difficult to climb stairs, they may stop jumping on the bench! There is a monthly injection that targets a new mechanism in the pain pathway to enable long lasting osteoarthritis pain relief. Call and speak to one of our experienced veterinarians or veterinary nurses if you think your cat could benefit from some pain relief 07 3816 0210
Congratulations to the winners of our Christmas hampers.😄🥳 Thanks to everyone who entered.😊

Puppy play dates with my clinic brother! 😍 If you adopt me I can play with my new puppy brother when you bring me home 🥹
Welcome to the Little Critters Fam-Bam Bonnie! 😀😀
It’s puppy Saturday here at Little Critters this morning! 🐶🐶😍
For anyone who couldn’t make it to the open day this morning, we thought we would do a quick behind the scenes video to show you where your furbabies have their procedures and are hospitalised when they come to our clinic 😊🐈⬛🐕
💥 TINKS IS BACK… AND SO ARE WE 💥 As of today, we are working out of the clinic again! It has all been rebuilt and is brand spanking new! This week we will still only be taking light bookings as we will no doubt have some teething issues and last minute organising to finish. As of next week (starting 16th May) we will be back to normal! We will be welcoming regular clients, new clients, routine surgeries, medical cases and anything else that comes through the doors. We are so excited to be able to see all your smiling faces, pretty pooches and cute kitties again soon ❤️🐶🐱
Hi Little Critters Fam! We thought you might all be ready for another flood rebuild update 👍 We have beautiful new floors and the painters are going to get the walls all jazzed up this week… it’s all really coming together now! We’ve still got cabinetry to go in next week, then finishing touches on the building works and then the big move back in. No date for exactly when we will be back in the building yet, but we’re getting closer everyday 😊 We will let you all know as soon as we know - we can’t wait to see you all again soon!
Hi Everyone, This Friday we have the electrician coming to reconnect the power to clinic, which is great news!….but that means we will have no power to our portable buildings from 11am-5.30pm Friday and as a result will be closed from 11am Friday. We will be back functioning as ‘normal’ out of the portable buildings from 8am Monday 😊 Photo of Tinks for attention ❤️
We have walls!!!🥳🥳🥳
For todays Little Critters flood recovery update, we thought we’d change it up and get Dr Anna to give everyone a little tour of the clinic… (Rest assured, Dr Anna won’t be giving up her day job for a job in front of the camera 😂)
These beauties will all be up for adoption in the coming weeks. We have Mum “Poppy” and 2 grey female and one ginger male kitten available (as yet unnamed)They will be vaccinated, desexed and microchipped. Get in touch if you are looking to add a fur baby to your family. 😍😍😍
😸😍 Are your furkids snuggle bunny’s like these two? 😸😍 we would love to see some photos!
Time to share a photo of your feline friends cause it’s #internationalcatday 😺🐱💕😸
These beauties are all still looking for homes😍😍😍🤞🏻🤞🏻… excuse the noisy kettle in the background☕️
Look at this gorgeous munchkin😍😍😍 Bluey was in today to have her umbilical hernia repaired …..We are all in love😊
These two beauties are still looking for their forever home 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
