🚨 Why Feeding Wildlife Can Do More Harm Than Good 🚨

This X-ray shows a young magpie who had just fledged the nest but sadly didn’t receive the proper nutrients needed for healthy development. Feeding wildlife human food or improper diets can lead to serious health issues, like the deformities seen here.

Unfortunately, this little one couldn’t survive in the wild and had to be humanely euthanised. 💔

While it’s tempting to feed our feathered friends, the best way to help wildlife is to leave their diet to nature or consult local experts about safe feeding practices. Together, we can ensure they thrive in the wild where they belong. 🐦🌿

Ralph the Doberman had quite the scare recently when he swallowed a rock, causing a small intestinal obstruction. Emergency stabilisation and surgery were required to remove it. Since Dobermans are especially prone to bloat (GDV), Dr. Amanda, with the help of Dr. Shelley, performed a gastropexy during surgery to prevent this life-threatening condition in the future.

Check out the radiograph showing the rock in Ralph’s bowel, and the ultrasound image where the rock appears as a bright, reflective object with a dark shadow beneath. This shadow is caused by the rock blocking ultrasound waves, and you can also spot the bowel dilation caused by the blockage.

Thankfully, Ralph is recovering well after surgery. Let’s keep the rocks off the menu from now on, buddy! ❤🐾

Dr. Andres was all smiles when he received this adorable hand-drawn picture and sweet note from Beau, one of our lovely clients. 🖍️✨

Moments like these remind us why we do what we do. Caring for your furry family members brings us so much joy—and thoughtful gestures like this mean the world to us! 🐶❤️

Thank you, Beau, for making our day!

At The Vet Lounge, we treat all creatures great and small – including wildlife! 🦢 This cormorant was brought in with a fish hook through his flipper and another in his chest. Ouch! 😫 Thankfully, Dr. Winnie was able to remove the hooks and stitch him up for a full recovery.

If you come across any injured wildlife, please bring them in – wildlife deserve veterinary care too. 💙

🌟 Sweet Rosie just had her first dental procedure, complete with extractions, and now her teeth are sparkly clean—no more smelly breath! 🎉✨ Rosie was the perfect patient, an absolute angel throughout the whole process!

Regular dental care is crucial for pets, as it helps prevent serious health issues associated with gum disease and tooth decay. Remember, bad breath isn’t normal! If your pet has bad breath, it’s a clear sign they need a dental check-up. Visit www.vetlounge.com.au to book your pet for a free teeth assessment today! 💖🐶

We’re already seeing an increase in lorikeets with Lorikeet Paralysis Syndrome (LPS), and the season has just begun! This condition typically affects our beautiful Rainbow and Scaly-Breasted Lorikeets from October to June. While the cause of LPS remains unknown, the good news is that it is completely curable if caught early. LPS impacts the lorikeets' ability to fly, walk, blink, and even swallow. You may find these beautiful birds lying on the ground, struggling to move. If you come across an injured or unwell lorikeet, please gently pick them up using a towel and bring them to any of our clinics for the care they need and deserve. Recovery from LPS can take 4-6 weeks of intensive care by wildlife carers before they can be safely released back into the wild. Thank you for helping us care for these wonderful creatures! 🌈🦜💚 #LorikeetParalysisSyndrome #WildlifeCare #VetLounge

⚠️Important reminder! Dr. Nicole removed a paralysis tick from one of our surgery patients, highlighting the critical importance of tick prevention! Ticks can be life-threatening if not addressed quickly. Watch out for signs like: ⚠️ Weakness in the legs ⚠️ Wobbly walking ⚠️ Change in bark or meow ⚠️ Difficulty breathing or swallowing ⚠️ Vomiting or loss of appetite Please ensure your pet's tick prevention is up-to-date! If you're unsure of the best option for your pet, reach out to us, and we'll help you find the right product to keep your pet safe from these deadly critters! #TickPrevention #VetLounge #HealthyPets #ParalysisTick #PetHealth
