🐍Snake Season🐍

It’s that time of the year again when the weather is getting warmer and the snakes are out!
Gidget here had a play date with a snake and was rushed into the clinic when her owners noticed she was vomiting and had collapsed. Gidget arrived unconscious and minutes away from death. Our team of vets and nurses quickly got to work to save Gidget’s life, after intensive care and life support she pulled through. Gidget has now recovered and is back at home with her owners. 💜💛

🐍 Vomiting
🐍 Excessive drooling
🐍 Shaking, muscle tremors
🐍 Collapse or weakness
🐍 Inability to control bladder or bowels
🐍 Fixed dilated pupils
🐍 Unexplained bleeding

🌸On Wednesdays we wear wild scrubs for charity!🌸
For the next few months we will be raising money for Fawna, who work tirelessly to take care of our Western Australian wildlife. They are a non profit organisation run by volunteer carers. They spend endless hours caring for all the critters great and small, including our endangered western ringtail possums!

If you would like to donate to the cause our donation tin can be found at our reception desk. 📞
F.A.W.N.A Inc.
Keep your eyes peeled for our Facebook story every Wednesday of our staff members in wild scrubs!🩺💜💛

🐴Update from the previous post🐴

A foster mum has been found for the little orphaned foal, such a lovely outcome for these two. 💜

Harradine & Associates have done a tremendous effort at fostering on the foal to a new mum and navigating through a very difficult and stressful situation for these two 🐴

Update 21/10 **Foster Mare found** thankyou to everyone who shared our post, we are pleased to report a foster mare has been found and she has adopted our little orphan 🥰

URGENT - FOSTER MARE REQUIRED (Bunbury, WA). Ideally we require a mare that has recently foaled (in the last 7 days), but sadly lost her own foal. If you know of a mare that may be suitable, please call the clinic 9796 5800

🟡Have you ever seen bladder stones?🟡

Bladder stones are rock-like formations of minerals that develop in the urinary bladder. There may be a large, single stone, or a collection of stones that range in size from sand-like grains to gravel.

Bladder stones can develop within a few weeks or may take months to form. The rate of urolith formation and growth varies, depending on factors such as diet, urine pH, and how much crystalline material is present in the urine.

Little muffin presented to the clinic with straining to urinate and discomfort in the abdomen. After a urine test, palpation of the abdomen and X-rays, we discovered that she had bladder stones! She was admitted for a surgery called a cystotomy, a procedure to access and open the bladder so that the stones can be removed. We found multiple stones! Muffin is now recovering and feeling much better after her procedure 💜💛

A rare photo of Dr Paul with an orphaned lamb, it’s not often that Dr Paul makes an appearance on the Geovet social media! Between travelling all over the southwest to see his large animal patients, owning a business and maintaining his own property, he’s a busy man! But not too busy for a quick cuddle with a lamb! 🐑

💜Story below!💛

This is Barney who belongs to one of our lovely clients, Heidi. Barney was staying with Heidi’s daughter for awhile in Perth when he decided it was a fantastic idea to escape out the balcony and go on an adventure. Meanwhile Heidi searched all over for him and even reached out to the local community pages to find him, she eventually found him in a wall cavity nearby after 4 days of searching! After trying to get him out she had to call in the fire brigade to recover him. 🚒🐱

Barney has now been reunited to a very worried Heidi and now is safe at home in Busselton. Dr Di checked Barney over for any injuries and found him in perfect condition from his big adventure. Dr Di prescribed rest and recovery at home with lots of cuddles!💜💛
