Truffle the British Shorthair strutted into the clinic this week and instantly stole hearts (and maybe a few treats 😅).

With those plush cheeks and big round eyes, it’s safe to say Truffle is the total package!

❄️ Winter Wellness for Your Golden Oldies! 🐾

They might still act like a pup or kitten, but did you know that by age 10 your pet is already considered a senior? 😲
That’s around 55 in human years for cats and smaller dogs — and for our larger canine companions, they’re heading into their 70s! By 12, many are officially geriatric (but don’t tell them that! 😉).

As our furry friends age, subtle health changes can sneak up fast — which is why we’ve created a limited-time Winter Wellness Package just for them! ❤️

🌟 What’s included?
✅ A full physical exam
✅ A wellness blood test screening for diabetes, kidney & liver disease
✅ A FREE 50ml bottle of 4CYTE liquid – to support joint health this winter (while stocks last!)

Early detection = better treatment options + more happy, healthy time with YOU. 🐶🐱💕

Whether they’re purring on your lap or still chasing tennis balls, make sure your senior superstar is feeling their best this Winter.

📅 Appointments are limited — book your Winter Wellness Check today and keep those golden years glowing! ✨

🐾 Still feeling the Winter Wobbles? ❄️

There’s good news! 🙌
4CYTE™ with Epiitalis® is a scientifically-backed supplement that helps:
✅ Stimulate healthy cartilage production
✅ Suppress inflammatory chemicals
✅ Improve mobility
✅ Enhance overall quality of life!

✨ What makes 4CYTE™ so special?
🌱 Epiitalis® – a patented plant seed oil (Biota orientalis) proven to regenerate cartilage and promote healthy joint function

Too often we hear, "They’re just getting old..." – but slowing down on walks, not playing like they used to, struggling to jump or groom – these could all be signs of arthritis, not just age.

At Heathmont Animal Hospital, we’ve seen first-hand how starting pets on a joint supplement like 4CYTE™ can bring back their bounce! 🐾💙

🐰💉 Welcome back to the Rabbit Report with our bunny expert - Dr. Louise! 💉🐰

Did you know that your fluffy friend is at risk of two serious viral diseases here in Australia? Myxomatosis and Calicivirus (Rabbit Haemorrhagic Disease) can be deadly for our beloved bunnies.

🦟 These nasties are spread by wild rabbits, mozzies, flies, and even bunny p*e and p**p! But don’t worry — we can help protect your little hopper!

✨ Here’s the good news: We have a highly effective vaccine called Filavac that protects against Calicivirus. Just one jab a year can help your bunny stay safe and sound! 🐇❤️

⚠️ Sadly, there’s no vaccine for Myxomatosis yet — which is why it’s SUPER important to:
✅ Keep your bunny indoors or in a mozzie/fly-proof enclosure
✅ Stay up to date with yearly vaccinations
✅ Chat to us if you’re unsure how to best protect your bunny

Your bunny deserves a long, 'hoppy' life! Let’s keep them safe together. 🩺💕

Call us today at 9729 4466 to book your bunny’s vaccination!

After an anaesthetic we always make sure our patients maintain their 'paw-fect' body temp! Topie the greyhound was feeling a little cold after her dental surgery but thankfully a heat pack, blankets and cuddles made her feel a 'howl' lot better!

A few weeks ago we spoke about chemical restraint and how helpful it is in the veterinary industry for keeping things safe for you, your pets and our staff as well as making appointments more efficient and 'paw-sitive!' We'd love to share with you a recent chemical restraint success story!

Meet Kirra, a gorgeous Labrador x Border Collie! Poor Kirra partially tore one of her dew claws, this was was very painful, and for an excitable young dog who was already sensitive to her paws being touched, treatment was not easy. Understandably scared and sore, Kirra was screaming and yelping at even the slightest touch. The team did what they could but asked Kirra's owner to come back. Next time, with a sedative/anxiety relief tablet to give prior to Kirra's vet appointment to help 'take the edge off'.

When Kirra came back, she was SO MUCH CALMER! The appointment was faster and the treatment more effective, as Kirra was more tolerant of the team examining her paw. The appointment was also so much more positive for Kirra, her owner and our staff! Kirra's owner was happy for us to share; "in Kirra's last appointment, I was so upset seeing and hearing Kirra yelping and in such distress, I would recommend chemical restraint to everyone for their pets!"

We hope you enjoy this video of Kirra feeling a little ✨high✨ whilst Dr Kaylee gently bandages her paw (a seemingly impossible task in the previous visit!) while mum provides soothing head scratchies.

Please call the clinic on 9729 4466 and speak to one of our friendly staff to see if your pet gets stressed at the vet and may be suitable to get a little extra 'something something' to help make it all go smoother! 🐾

🚨 Cuteness alert! 🚨 Say hello to Mr Benjamin (or Benji for short), who just had his very first vet visit—and totally stole our hearts in the process 💙

He was brave, curious and gave out at least 1000 tail wags and 5,000 kisses 🐶💉

We’re so excited to watch this little fluffball grow up healthy and happy! Welcome to the HAH fam, Benji!

🐰🦷 The Rabbit Report with Dr Louise is back—and today we’re talking TEETH! Buckle up, bunny lovers, because there’s more to that adorable nibble than meets the eye!

Did you know rabbits have 6 incisors? Yep—4 big ones in front and 2 sneaky little "peg teeth" right behind the top pair.
In total, they’ve got 28 teeth—and here’s the kicker: they never stop growing!

That’s why a high-fibre diet (hello, hay!) is essential—not only to keep their gut moving, but also to wear those teeth down naturally. 🥬🐇

🚨 Pro tip from Dr Louise: Dental issues aren’t always about diet—genetics play a role too. Inbreeding can increase the risk of dental problems, so always choose reputable breeders or rescues and make sure to get your rabbits desexed so they don't breed like...well...rabbits!

Keep those chompers healthy and stay tuned for more bunny brilliance next time!
