Hi everyone 👋 Just a quick PSA from Dr Tim.

Following the tiger deaths in Vietnam, Tim's been asked by a few people if it's safe to feed raw chicken to cats or should it be cooked.

This is a fantastic question and his advice is to cook all chicken and eggs thoroughly.
Australia doesn't have a big problem with bird flu, yet, but it could happen at any time, so it's best to be cautious and only feed cooked chicken and eggs.

The H5N1 virus killed 47 tigers, three lions and a panther at the My Quynh safari park and the Vuon Xoai zoo, according to state media

Please help our friends find a home for gorgeous Axel 🥹💕

• Staffy Mix
* Roughly 20wko
* Great with dogs, farm animals (supervision with chickens/ pocket pets), people and kids. Axel would best suit a home who is able to keep up with his playful puppy self or have another dog at home to keep him company!
Axel loves a play, but also loves working for his food through obedience and tricks! Axel is currently in foster care with a dog trainer. He is now crate trained (for overnight sleep and day rests) and toilet trained.
Axel knows how to sit and how to walk nicely on the lead.
He is currently learning how to drop, politely greet people and confidence building through lots of different exposure.
Axel would love to be a member of the family and he will show you that through his sweet, friendly nature (plus he loves a cuddle)

If you think you could give Axel the loving home apply directly through Pyrenees Animal Rescue or give us a call and we can point you in the right direction!

What Axel is looking for in his forever home - Cuddles and toys. - Further training and understandable owners when he doesn’t get it quite right the first time. - Another playful desexed dog...

Unfortunately our employees aren’t doing a great job of answering your calls today, due to our phone lines AND internet being down. Please bear with us while we try to sort this out.
All calls are being diverted to one mobile phone so if you are having trouble getting through, this is why.

ADOPTED!❤️
Please feel free to share 🙏🏼

Meet Billie, a sweet 1 year old silver Toy Poodle who is looking for a special home. Billie is a wonderful companion with a big heart, but he has some behavioural challenges that require patience and understanding. He can sometimes exhibit timid or skittish behaviour when handled or picked up.

Billie is seeking an owner who is experienced with dog training and is willing to work with him to overcome his challenges. With the right guidance and training, Billie will blossom into a loving and well-behaved companion. He would do best in a home without young children and some space to play and explore.

If you're looking for a loyal and devoted companion, consider giving Billie a chance. He's ready to give his heart to the right person!

Feel free to email us at [email protected] for more information if you are interested.
No call enquiries please.
