Sweet Biana is at our vet clinic today for X-rays as part of her JPS (Juvenile P***c Symphysiodesis) screening. She’s being such a brave girl, and we’re making sure she gets all the care she needs! Sending her all the love and cuddles ❤️

When you walk into the vet and realise you forgot to make an appointment… but still expect treats! 🐾😂

How cute is Bruno! 💕 He actually did have an appointment for a sore tail and we hope he’s starting to feel much better after treatment (& liver treats of course ☺️) 💙

It is reported that microchipping company Home Safe ID (QLD based) is closing or has closed. This means that any animals chipped through them will no longer be recognised when scanned unless they are transferred over to another microchip registration company.

When we visited their website to check if they were active, the host of the site mentions they have stopped communication and/or paying for the hosting of their website and it will likely go offline in the future (www.homesafeid.com).

If your pet has originated from interstate or you do not know which chip registry they belong to, we highly recommend you check their chip details ASAP. To find out which microchip registry your pets details are held under, you can visit www.petaddress.com.au. When an animal is lost then scanned, this is the website their chip details are entered into to see which chip registry the animal belongs to.

Should you need to change your chip registry, we recommend that you change over to have them registered with Central Animal Records (CAR) for a fee of $12. You can reach them via www.car.com.au or ph 03 9706 3187 🐾

A special Christmas treat for our community ❤️ Jennifer Hunt (CEO and Founder, Pet Medical Crisis) sits down for a chat with Bruce and his beautiful dog Giorgio.

We supported last year by connecting them with Southern Animal Health and funding critical veterinary care.

💊 Have you checked your pets medication recently? Although we will only close Christmas Day and New Years Day, many of our suppliers aren't open and this means our ordering capabilities may be limited.

If you are running low on your pets medication, now is a great time to pop an order in to ensure we can do our best to supply it to you on time ☺️

Do you know how about the high su***de rates of veterinarians? We know you would probably prefer to see cute pictures of the patients we see but we don't want to hide the realities of the pressure our vets and nurses face on a regular basis.

Although all our staff face daily challenges in our industry, the work we do is crucial as well as deeply fulfilling. Please help us by signing the petition to help us receive more support for veterinary professionals and don't forget to thank your nurses and vets for the awesome and inspiring work they do!
