Did you know that most avian and exotic pets have a "preservation reflex"? This means they often hide signs of illness until itโs severe. That's why regular check-ups are so important! If you notice any signs of illness, please contact us to book a consultation. Let's keep your special friends thriving for years to come! ๐ฉบโจ

"If I fits, I sits!" ๐พ๐บ Whether it's a cozy bed or between the wheels of some equipment, our patients always manage to find the perfect spot to call their own.๐๐ถโค
When your patient is so adorable, you wish you could take them home! Nurse Rhiannon was so smitten with little Lilli that we had to gently remind her to let Lilli go when her parents arrived. Itโs hard not to fall in love with some of our beautiful patients! ๐ฉท๐พ๐ฉท
Two little female guinea pigs visited the vet.
One guinea pig was bloated, and her owner was upset.
The vet checked her over, but signs of bloat we weren't detecting.
Turns out one guinea pig was a boy, and the other was expecting!
- Poem by Nurse Andy โจ๐โค
Janet and our dedicated team have been busy achieving some incredible results at our Canine Rehab Centre! Meet Brei, one of our senior patients who has been facing mobility challenges as she ages. During her initial consult, her owner mentioned she couldn't stand for her entire meal and struggled with walks.
After just three sessions of laser and manual therapy, Brei is showing remarkable progress! She now stands throughout her meals and enjoys 10-minute walks around her neighbourhood. We're excited to see her continued strength gains. ๐ชโค
If your pet is struggling with mobility issues, please get in touch, our rehab team would love to help!

๐ถ Bulldog Love! ๐พ From their adorable wrinkles to their hilarious antics, bulldogs always steal our hearts. ๐
But did you know bulldogs are a brachycephalic breed? This means they have a short, pushed-in muzzle and unique facial structure. While incredibly cute, these traits can lead to respiratory challenges and other health issues.
At The Vet Lounge, we provide advanced, in-house airway procedures to enhance their quality of life. Whether it's addressing airway issues or other health concerns, we're here to ensure your bulldog stays happy and healthy! ๐พ๐
Due to staff illness, our Coomera practice will close at 1pm today instead of 3pm. Thank you for your understanding. ๐ค
For emergencies, please contact the Animal Emergency Service at Carrara on (07) 5559 1599.

โน๏ธ Mast cells are an important part of your pet's immune system, but when they become abnormal and form tumours, early detection and treatment are crucial! If you notice any unusual lumps or bumps on your pet, it's always best to get them checked out by a vet as soon as possible!
Bandages, of course, must match the accessories! ๐โโ๏ธ๐พ

Cutest Patient of the Week goes toโฆ Gus! What a handsome little pup!๐พ๐
It's important to remember that guinea pigs, like many other animals, are often good at hiding when they are sick. Keep an eye out for subtle changes in their usual behaviour, as these can be early indicators of illness or pain.
Signs that your guinea pig may be unwell include:
- Not eating
- Being quieter than usual
- Hiding more often
If you notice any of these signs, bring them in for a consultation.

Sweet little Rosie patiently waiting for her checkup with Dr. Amanda. Did you know our Coomera practice has a dedicated cat consultation room? We understand that visiting the vet can be especially stressful for cats, particularly with the presence of dog smells and noise. Our special cat consult room is positioned away from the other consult rooms to minimise noise and eliminate doggy smells, creating a calmer environment. Just look at how content Rosie isโshe made herself right at home!
