Get moving again with 4cyte!
4cyte is a product which contains ingredients to help with cartilage repair, joints injury and arthritis.
4cyte addresses the cause of the pain rather than delivering symptomatic relief- which is why we recommend 4cyte by itself or in conjunction with another arthritic injection for dogs who may be struggling with joint issues. We stock this product in the 200ml gel and 100g granules regularly so if needed, call us on 07 3202 71554 or pop in to chat with our friendly staff about the product.

Happy Halloween from all the team at Ipswich Family Veterinary Clinic.
Heres some tips to keep your pets safe 🍫🍭🍬🧙‍♀️🎃👻

🐍 Snake Season is Here – Protect Your Pets! 🐾

As the weather warms up, Australia’s snakes, including the Brown Snake and Red-bellied Black Snake, become more active. Here's what you need to know to keep your pets safe:

⚠️ What to Look Out For:

Brown snakes are slender with varying shades of brown or grey.
Red-bellied snakes are black with a reddish belly.
Snakes may hide in long grass, bushy areas, and around water sources.
But of late have been found sunbaking out in the open near footpaths.

🐍 What to Do if You Encounter a Snake:

Leave it alone. Snakes are generally shy and will only attack if provoked or threatened.
If you see the snake before it sees you, stay still and slowly back away if it doesn't move toward you.
Give the snake time to move away. Most snakes will leave on their own if they don’t feel threatened.

🐕🐈 Signs Your Pet Has Been Bitten:

Sudden collapse, followed by apparent recovery
Lethargy, weakness, or trembling
Vomiting or excessive drooling
Dilated pupils, paralysis, or difficulty breathing
Blood in urine

🚨 What to Do:
Stay calm and keep your pet still to slow the spread of venom.
Avoid applying a tourniquet or cutting the wound.
Seek immediate veterinary attention – every minute counts!

For more information or if you suspect your pet has been bitten, contact us ASAP on 07 3202 1554

Below is a photo of some bacteria that shows up in your animals ears under a microscope

With Halloween around the corner, its time to reminder you about pets and chocolate!
It’s a common fact that chocolate isn’t good for animals, especially dogs.
Chocolate contains caffeine and the chemical compound ‘theobromine’, which are toxic to pets. This is because cats’ and dogs’ digestive systems can’t break them down in the same way as humans. The chemicals build up and can cause organ disease and failure if not treated properly.
If you are concerned that your pet may have consumed chocolate, contact the clinic on 07 3202 1554

21/10/2024

Got an older pet thats slowing down? Showing signs of stiffness, reluctant to walk or climb stairs, licking or chewing their joints? These are all signs of Arthritis in Cats and Dogs.

Feline Percy for his castration procedure and little Poppy (looking very concerned) was due for her annual vaccination and first cartrophen injection to help with her creaky joints.

Heartworm Disease
Heartworm is a deadly disease that is characterised by a large parasitic worm that can grow up to 30cm long. The heart is forced to overwork due to the resistance that the heartworms create in the heart, which can lead to heart failure.
How to prevent heartworm?
Unfortunately heartworm is spread through mosquitos like dengue fever in humans. The only prevention for heartworm is to either have your vet give a yearly injection of ProHeart SR12 injection (heartworm injection) OR giving a worming tablet that covers heartworm monthly. We stock MilPro which, if given monthly, will prevent heartworm in your pet.
Does heartworm affect humans?
Luckily heartworm does not make humans sick, and adult heartworm cannot develop in our heart. However, there are thirty different types of animals that can carry heartworm, including wild dogs, dingoes and foxes.
Discuss your options for prevention with our team in clinic or call 07 3202 1554

Baby BK demanding a feed right after recovering from anaesthesia. It's been such a pleasure having this beautiful boy in the clinic and we are happy to say he is now at home at the Haigslea EWE NIQUE farm and living large 😍😍😍🐐 Just a note; BK stands for "Beautiful Kid" More beautiful photos in the comments 😊😊😊

It's almost home time for us at the clinic. Nighty night and we will see everyone bright and early for a busy Thursday! 😊

Pugsley's had a bath today at the clinic. If he gets any cuter we may have to keep him here forever! 😍

🐶🐶 Pugsley Update 🐶🐶 Little terror is 6 weeks and 2 days old today. Hes in the clinic having his first vaccinations, hes decided to act like the crazy puppy he is instead of behaving 😂 We are so pleased with how he is growing and developing and we still have all fingers, toes and paws crossed for the future 🐾 P.s. see comments for his amazing modeling he did 😍

We are so lucky to have such a wide range of patients that come to the clinic. These two visited us this weekend just gone 💕 We love visits like this!

We think Pumpkin is almost as dapper as his owner. 🤩💕🐈

***Pugsley Update*** This little monster turned 3 weeks old on Wednesday! He wants to suckle so badly and so foster mum Kym, has allowed him to suckle very very small amounts so that he doesnt accidentally get that milk down the wrong way, as well as tube feeding around the clock still! He is doing wonderfully, Kymberly is a very proud foster mum right now 😍😍😍

Great turn out to the RSPCA Million Paws Walk. Hope everyone had a ball... We definitely did! We would love to see photos of anyone who was there today.
