Everyone meet Nero! Nero’s parents noticed he wasn’t his normal self, he was lethargic and not interested in eating they decided to bring him to us. We examined him and noticed he had a very high temperature and was very lethargic, Nero was admitted to the hospital for a blood test, IV fluids and medications to help him feel better. After a few hours, his blood results came back with a high white cell count which means he had an infection! On examination, we noticed Nero had some bizarre lumps under his armpit and in between his back legs. Nero was referred to the team at Casey Pet Emergency for further workup overnight and surgery to have the lumps biopsied. The team at emergency made sure he was comfortable and performed surgery, where they carefully removed the two lumps and sent them off to be examined by a pathologist. Nero had a special drain called a Jackson Pratt drain, which has a bulb on the end that allows it to drain and be measured. Nero continued to be monitored with regular visits at DVH, once we were happy the drains could be removed with lots of kisses and cuddles Nero had them removed. (As pictured in the reel). Thankfully the results showed the lumps weren't cancerous and were in fact inflammation under the skin caused either by a bacteria or foreign object. Thankfully with quick thinking by Nero's owners, the amazing team at Dandenong Vet Hospital and Casey Pet Emergency, Nero is back to his loving happy self. #dandenongveterinaryhospital #dandenongvethospital #dandenongvet #dandenongvethosp #dvh #catstagram #cat #catsofinstagram #catlove #catlife #catlover #catlovers #catoftheday #catloversclub

#funfactfriday In honor of Dental Month: Did you know 80% of dogs are affected by dental problems by the age of 3 years? One of the many ways you can help to reduce the likelihood that your precious pooch joins this statistic is with daily dental treats by WHIMZEES! WHIMZEES uses natural vegetarian ingredients - this is great for most dogs, including some with dietary intolerances and food sensitivities. The uniquely shaped treats offer effective dental cleaning! The chewing of these treats helps to reduce plaque build-up by mechanically scrubbing the tooth while the dog chews. #dandenongveterinaryhospital #dental #dogdental #cutedog #dogtreats #whimzees #whimzeesdogchew #vetclinic #pawsome Disclaimer: We do not recommend starting any new diets without first consulting with your vet. There is no guarantee that WHIMZEES treats alone will be sufficient to prevent dental disease.
