Unfortunately, just like in some human share-houses, multiple cats living together under one roof won’t always get along! 😼😾

Whilst overt aggression between cats is easily recognised by owners, it can be difficult to detect more subtle, passive signs of inter-cat tension. These can include resource blocking (e.g. one cat preventing another from accessing bowls, beds or toileting facilities), “stare-offs”, or symptoms of chronic stress in one or more cats (e.g. overgrooming or recurrent urinary issues).

If you have any concerns about your cat’s behaviour or health, please consult our behaviourally-brainy veterinary team! 🐾

By now, most pet owners are aware that chocolate (or other products containing cacao beans or cocoa) can cause dangerous poisoning in dogs and cats. 🍫 To keep them safe, make sure you're keeping chocolate and other tasty Christmas treats (like fruitcake and ham) out of reach, as our pets are inquisitive around this time of year.

If your pet demonstrates any of these signs, we’d advise an immediate phone call to our team or the Animal Poisons Helpline for further advice. 📞

Whilst a deer antler may seem like a fun seasonal treat for your dog (sorry Rudolph!), we don’t rate them as one of the safest chew treats. 🎄 We caution that deer antlers may not be appropriate for all dogs, due to their chewing style. We recommend you always supervise your pet when providing new treats to ensure they are interacting with them safely.

For advice on safe dental chews for your pet this Christmas, consult our tooth-tending team! 🦷

Whilst we don’t want to make you nervous about every little thing, there are a few little things you should keep an eye out for when out and about with your pet this summer – ants! 🐜

If you suspect an ant bite in your pet, we’d advise applying a cool compress or cool water bathing for the affected area for 5 minutes. 🧊

Any pet out and about in the summer heat and/or humidity can be at risk of developing dangerous heatstroke. Particularly prone are those pets with breathing compromise (e.g. flatter-faced breeds such as bulldogs) or very thick coats (such as golden retrievers). To keep your pet safe, avoid exercise during the hotter parts of the day. ☀️

If your pet is drooling excessively or looks weak or wobbly, it’s best to wet them down and then transport them in an air-conditioned vehicle for an urgent assessment with our experienced vets. 🚗🐶

Christmas has arrived early!! 🎄

Little boys Eggnog and Mistletoe are 10 weeks old.
They are super sweet and love to have a mix of play time and cuddle time.

Being that they were strays, they are still learning that the food is not going anywhere! We would recommend being fed separately from other pets for now.

Our adoption fee of $270 includes three kitten vaccinations, sterilisation and microchip.

We hope these little boys will find a nice home before December 25th 🎅

If you and your pet will be visiting the beach or another waterway this summer, we’d advise keeping them by your side so that you can keep an eye out for wayward fish hooks. 🏖️

Unfortunately, fish hooks (with remnants of bait on them) are sometimes left scattered around popular fishing areas, and are then unintentionally snatched up by opportunistic pets. 🐟🐕

If you suspect your pet may have unfortunately “taken the bait”, we’d recommend a prompt assessment with one of our vets.

Morley Vetcentre's Dog Training Team Explores New Horizons at Skills Safari with Ken Ramirez

The Morley Vetcentre dog training team recently had the incredible opportunity to attend the Skills Safari with Ken Ramirez at Perth Zoo. This five-day event was a deep dive into advanced animal training techniques led by world-renowned animal trainer Ken Ramirez.

Ken Ramirez, with nearly four decades of experience, shared his expertise on positive reinforcement training, concept training, and cognitive abilities of animals. The team was particularly excited about the sessions on husbandry training, which focused on training animals to willingly cooperate with medical and veterinary procedures.

The event also covered problem-solving strategies, evaluating training plans, and handling training mistakes positively. These insights are invaluable for our team as we continue to enhance our training methods and ensure the well-being of the animals in our care.

We are thrilled to bring back this wealth of knowledge to our practice and look forward to implementing these advanced techniques to better serve our furry friends and their owners. Stay tuned for more updates on how we integrate these new skills into our training programs!

During summer, we see a “step up” in the number of pet paw pad injuries. 🐾

If you note a scrape-like abrasion on your dog’s paw, you can usually manage this at home by: Limiting them to very short walks on soft dry ground for 10-14 days, to allow the injury to heal. For toileting in wet weather, temporarily taping a thick plastic bag over your pet’s entire paw to keep the wound clean and dry – just ensure you remove this promptly afterwards to prevent the paw from becoming sweaty and irritated. ☔

However, if your pet’s paw injury is a deeper cut that may require stitching, we’d advise a prompt check-up with one of our pawsome vets. 🩹

Planning is key to a successful boarding stay. If you’re planning to leave your anxious dog at a boarding kennel, it’s important to ensure they have what they need to make their stay successful. 🐕

Inform your kennel ahead of time of their needs, and ensure you supply enough medication (if they are medicated) to last the duration of the stay. 💊 Always provide several emergency contacts including veterinarian details. It’s worth considering alternatives to boarding also, if you don’t think your dog will cope well.

If you’ve recently gotten a puppy, you might have wondered if they can go into boarding kennels when you go away.

Boarding kennels might not be the best option for young puppies. 🐶 All dogs should be appropriately vaccinated prior to going into kennels, so that means puppies under 4 months of age might not be fully vaccinated yet.

Additionally, puppies can have high needs, so might require more hands-on support than is traditionally provided at many kennels. Other options include full-time pet sitters or relatives and friends. 🏡

They have been hand raised and used to tweenage children and adult cats.

Megatron and Nala have received the first of three vaccinations, wormed and flea treated.

Adoption fee is $270 and also includes sterilisation and microchip.

If you’re planning to go away this summer, it’s important to plan how your dog will get vet care while you’re away. 🌞

If you’re taking them with you, ensure you have enough medication to last while you’re away and look up your closest veterinary clinic, particularly for after-hours care. 🐕

If they are staying home, ensure their caregiver knows who your vet is (both in-hours and after-hours) and how they will pay for treatment if you cannot be contacted.
