🐾 **Snake Season is Here – Protect Your Pets!** 🐍

With the warmer weather, snakes are on the move, and our furry friends can be at risk. As pet owners, it’s crucial to stay vigilant and take steps to keep your pets safe.

Winnie is a lucky snake bite survivor thanks to her owners quick actions!

💡 **Tips to Keep Pets Safe During Snake Season**:
✔️ **Leash Walks Only**: Keep dogs on a leash during walks, especially in bushy or grassy areas.
✔️ **Yard Safety**: Maintain a tidy yard by clearing long grass, woodpiles, and debris where snakes may hide.
✔️ **Avoid High-Risk Times**: Snakes are more active early in the morning and late in the afternoon – exercise caution during these hours.
✔️ **Know the Signs**: Symptoms that may indicate your pet has been bitten include sudden collapse, swelling, drooling, lethargy, or trembling. Seek immediate vet care if you suspect a bite.

📞 **Emergency Care**: If your pet is bitten, contact us immediately at 5420 7000. Time is critical in snakebite cases, so don’t delay!

Together, we can keep your pets safe this snake season. Stay alert and enjoy the warmer months responsibly.

So happy that little Biccy was able to make her way home 🥰 thank you The Wildlings Woodend Wildlife Shelter for looking after her!

Biccy goes home.

Biccy was handed into Hamilton Street Veterinary Clinic last Friday. Tonight Biccy has gone back to her home territory and we hope she does well.

Our goal as a wildlife shelter is to give wildlife a 2nd chance, wherever possible we get them back out as soon as possible whilst ensuring they are 100% fit for release.

Not all have such a great outcome but Biccy did.

Ringtail possums are social possums living in colonies. They often fall victims to cat/dog attack & car strike. Loss of suitable habitat is also a problem for them particularly with removal of native vegetation.

Stay safe out there dear girl.

We’ve partnered with GapOnly® to help provide more treatment payment options.
If your pet is insured with a GapOnly® pet insurance partner, you can access your eligible pet insurance benefit on the spot. So rather than paying us the full invoice amount upfront and waiting to be reimbursed, you only pay what your pet insurance policy doesn’t cover – or the gap.

Swipe left to see the insurance companies partnered with GapOnly.

If you'd like to use GapOnly at your next visit, please let the nurses at reception know. 🐶🐱
