After her procedure, she was all purrs as she relaxed in a cosy blanket sling with Nurse Amanda, who made sure she was comfy and content. 🐱✨

Ultrasounds are a gentle and non-invasive way to gather important information about your cat’s health, and Tiffany was an absolute star patient! 🌟

Isn’t she the sweetest? 😻

❤️🐈‍⬛ If you have been thinking of adopting a kitty companion, there has never been a better time than now at Cat Haven WA! All adult cats (over 1 year) are only $25 to adopt! ❤️🐈‍⬛

🐾💔 Cat Haven Needs You More Than Ever 💔🐾 ADOPT DON'T SHOP ❤️

You may have seen the recent headlines… over the last few days, we’ve taken in an overwhelming number of cats, 31 from a single person last week, and another 80 on Thursday. Not to mention our regular intake of 30-50 each day. With our open admission policy, every cat in need finds a safe place here. But now, more than ever, we need YOUR help to give them homes.

To make adoption more accessible, all adult cats (over 1 year) are just $25 to adopt in shelter and in foster. Yet, with intake numbers soaring and only 10-15 adoptions happening per day, we simply can’t keep up. We’re at our limit, and these beautiful cats, each with their own story are waiting desperately for loving homes.

If you, or anyone you know, can welcome a cat into your family, please come to Cat Haven. These cats have been through so much already; let's help them find the happy, warm homes they deserve. Now is the time to choose to adopt, not shop. You’ll be saving a life. 💙🐱

Adoptions are open 10am-5:45pm weekdays and 10am-4pm weekends. Come to 23 Lemnos Street, Shenton Park, 6008 to meet your new best friend!

🐾🌺 Remembering the cats 🐈‍⬛ ❤️

Today, on Remembrance Day, we honour the courage and sacrifice of all who served—both human and animal. Alongside the brave men and women, countless animals played vital roles on the front lines, offering companionship, comfort, and support to troops. Among these were cats, who served as rat-catchers on ships and in trenches, protecting food supplies and boosting morale.

One Australian hero, Nipper, served alongside ANZAC troops during WWI. Nipper was a skilled rat-catcher and a loyal companion, providing comfort to soldiers during long and difficult days in the trenches. His presence brought moments of peace and a reminder of home amidst the turmoil of war.

Today, we remember them all—the soldiers, nurses, fur and feather heroes who stood beside them. Lest we forget. ❤️🐾

Our team loved seeing him so relaxed and comfortable during his admission appointment with our nurses. Creating a calming environment is just one of the ways we make vet visits less stressful for our feline friends.

Wishing Niko a speedy recovery and many more cozy sink naps! 🐈‍⬛🫧❤️

🎃🐈‍⬛ Happy Halloween Cat Lovers!!! 🐈‍⬛🎃
Here are some top tips for looking after your cats today:

👻 Keep Treats Away: Many Halloween treats, especially chocolate, are toxic to cats. Keep them out of reach, and offer only cat-safe foods to your cats!

🎃 Watch Decorations: Cats are curious and might nibble or play with Halloween decorations. Keep cords, candles, and small items out of reach.

🐈‍⬛ Create a Safe Space: With the extra excitement and noise, some cats might feel stressed. Set up a quiet, cosy spot where they can retreat if they need to.

🍭 Be Mindful of Costumes: If you’re dressing up your cat, make sure they’re comfortable and not restricted. Some cats prefer to admire the costumes rather than wear them!

Wishing everyone a safe and spooktacular Halloween! 🎃🐈‍⬛🙀

🐾 BEFORE, DURING, AFTER - Aural haematoma repair for Blynx! 🐈‍⬛

Blynx’s owner brought her in after noticing her ear didn’t look quite right - it had drooped down under the weight of an aural haematoma. This condition occurs when blood collects between the layers of the ear pinna, often due to trauma or excessive head shaking. 🙀

To help Blynx, Dr. Ebony performed a lance procedure with assistance from our skilled nurses. As seen in the photos, Dr. Ebony made a small incision to drain the trapped blood, relieving the pressure and restoring the ear to its natural upright position. Blynx recovered well from sedation and enjoyed a treat for being such a good patient! 😻🩺

🐾🐈‍⬛ Calm Cats, Better Vet Visits 🐈🐾

At Perth Cat Hospital, we understand the impact that stress can have on your cat’s health. As a cat-friendly clinic, we’re dedicated to making each visit as stress-free as possible.

One effective way to reduce anxiety is by administering a prescription calming medication prior to your cat’s appointment. Here’s why it’s important:

🐱 Emotional Wellbeing: It respects your cat’s emotional state, reducing fear and anxiety, which improves their welfare in stressful situations.

🐱 Positive Association: Calming medication encourages positive experiences, making future visits less stressful and promoting positive associative learning.

🐱 Improved Health Exams: A relaxed cat allows for a more thorough examination, enabling our vets to focus on comprehensive health assessments, from checking heart rate to detecting any signs of illness.

🐱 Accurate Diagnostics: Stress can skew diagnostic results, such as blood pressure and glucose levels. Calming your cat ensures more reliable test outcomes, leading to better diagnoses.

🐱 Safe Handling: Reduced anxiety lowers the chance of aggressive or defensive behaviour, minimising the risk of injury to your pet and our staff.

Let’s make vet visits smoother and healthier for your feline companions. Speak to us about getting the right calming medication prescribed before your next visit! 😻💊

Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP) Care at Perth Cat Hospital 🐈❤️🏥

Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP) is a serious and complex viral disease, but at Perth Cat Hospital, we are committed to offering the latest diagnostic and treatment options for this once-fatal condition.

Our vets are updated with the most current research to give affected cats the best chance of recovery, and have many success stories of cats in remission due to their care. 😻🩺

Anakin, pictured below, is currently undergoing treatment for FIP using GS-441524, an antiviral medication. He’s doing well at home, responding positively to therapy, and continues to improve under our close supervision. 🐾❤️

We utilise advanced diagnostic tools, including blood work, ultrasounds, and analysis of fluid samples, to accurately diagnose FIP. Once confirmed, our treatment plan is customised to your cat’s specific case, including ongoing monitoring to ensure they’re responding to their medication. 👩🏻‍⚕️🏥

At Perth Cat Hospital, our team is here to guide you through every stage of FIP care, from diagnosis to remission, providing the highest level of support for both you and your feline companion. 🐱❤️👩🏻‍⚕️
