🚨 Scam Alert – Pet Registration Emails 🚨

We’ve been made aware of scam emails circulating from third-party services like Track a Pet and PetChip, claiming that your pet’s microchip registration has expired. These emails may look official but they are not affiliated with any council or official pet registration system.

If you receive a suspicious email, do not click any links. Contact your local council directly to confirm your pet’s registration status.

Please share this post to help protect other pet owners. 🐾

I am participating in a fund raiser for Ronald McDonald House. To help support regional families that have to move away from home to seek medical support for their kids. I don’t want much just asking if through your networks you could share my page and make a $5-10 donation. This money goes towards the costs of families each night staying in the house and the food they need while they stay. This could be anyone of us in our community and I hope it never is but I want to help regional families like yours and mine. I have a theory if I can reach out to lots of people for a little bit of money it could make a big difference. Then hopefully we can smash the $3000 goal. So have a look at the fundraiser I am participating in next month and feel free to donate or share. Warm regards sarah

𝗔𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗼𝗸𝗮𝘆? 💛

Today is 𝗥 𝗨 𝗢𝗞? 𝗗𝗮𝘆 – a national reminder to check in on the people around us.
Just like we care for our patients’ health every day, it’s important to look after each other’s wellbeing too.

A simple, genuine “𝘈𝘳𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘖𝘒?” can make a big difference. Take the time to start the conversation with your friends, family, or colleagues.

Because sometimes, the smallest questions mean the most. 💛

Pictured below is 𝗡𝗶𝘅𝗼𝗻, who has spent many days with us in clinic. Luckily, he’s doing much better now — and even though we always love a visit from him, it’s nice not having him here quite so often. 🐾💛
