A little extra weight… and a lot of extra cuteness! 🐾 Maintaining a healthy weight is key to your pet’s overall well-being. Regular weigh-ins help us track progress and make sure they’re on the right path. Need guidance on your pet’s nutrition? We’re here to help!

❗️Important Update ❗️

Last month, the microchip registry HomeSafeID went into receivership and has shut down. At this stage, their website is still online, but when the website shuts down, your pet's microchip details will no longer be accessible. This means that there is no way of linking your pet back to your details via the microchip.

What do you need to do?
1️⃣ Find out your pet's microchip number.
If you do not have their microchip recorded anywhere, give us a call to see if we have it on record. If not, you can bring your pet in for a free microchip scan.

2️⃣ Visit 🌐 https://petaddress.com.au/ and enter the microchip number to find out which microchip registry it is registered under

3️⃣ If it is listed with HomeSafeID, you will need to re-register the microchip number with another microchip registry.
🔹Australasian Animal Registry (AAR) -$15 fee
🔹Central Animal Records (CAR) - Discounted $11.99 fee
🔹Global Micro - Currently offering FREE registrations as long as it is a HomeSafeID microchip number.

4️⃣ Ensure that you keep all of your contact details up to date and ensure your pet has a collar with a current ID tag that includes your phone number.

We strongly recommend that you check your pet's microchip and that the details are up to date. 🐾

Wowzers! 😱We recently joined RSPCA🐾 to help with their Pet Sterilisation Project where financial aid was provided for our clients and they got a discounted surgery price. ❤️

We kept record of all the vouchers and animals and here's our final statistics for this Sterilisation Period!

We had a total of 15 cats and 18 dogs. We saw more female for sterilisation than males, whereas it was the opposite and we saw more male dogs come in to be sterilised! 🐱🐶

If you missed out, don't be disheartened, RSPCA plan on re-opening their Sterilisation Project in the future, so keep an eye out on their website! 👀

⚠️Parvovirus Warning☢️

There have been two confirmed cases of Canine Parvovirus reported in Koondoola. Parvo is a highly infectious Virus that can lead to death. There is no cure, so prevention is key. If your dog has not been vaccinated or is overdue, we strongly recommend getting them vaccinated as soon as possible.

🦠Infected dog faeces spread parvovirus; the virus particles are shed into the environment and can survive for years. Other dogs can then get infected through the ingestion of infected grass, water and food that can be found in public areas such as dog parks. If your dog is not vaccinated, keeping them at home is recommended but not completely safe. All dogs of age are susceptible though puppies and young adults are at higher risk.

Common signs of Parvovirus are:
❗️Bloody and smelly diarrhoea
❗️Vomiting
❗️Loss of appetite
❗️Lethargy and depression

Treatment is urgent supportive care which includes hospitalisation, fluid therapy, antibiotics and anti-nausea medication.

We urge that you check your pet's vaccination status book if overdue. Please call us on (08) 9440 6060 to make an appointment.

If you suspect your dog has Parvovirus, we strongly recommend going to an Emergency Vet.

Please do not leave your pets in a hot car or walk them in the heat either. It’s just too dangerous. A reminder that if the ground is hot to touch on the back of your hand, it’s too hot for your pets feet.

Over the past three days we have been inundated with heat-related reports, most notably of dogs left in cars at shopping centres.

Dogs regulate their temperature through panting. If the air they are breathing in is hot, they can't regulate their temperature and are at serious risk of heatstroke and/or death.

The temperature in a parked car can quickly climb to double the outside temperature and kill a dog in just six minutes.

If you love your dog, leave them at home when it’s hot. If they suffer from separation anxiety, it’s better to leave them barking in the aircon for 20 minutes than in a locked car. There are no excuses!

If you see a dog in a hot car:
🐾 Identify signs of heatstroke (panting, drooling, agitation, pacing, potential vomiting/diarrhea).
🐾 Note down the vehicle's registration number and location and report it immediately to the RSPCA Cruelty Hotline on 1300 278 358 (1300 CRUELTY) or call WA Police on 131 444.
🐾 If you're at a shopping centre, ask the centre management to page the owner of the vehicle.
🐾 Keep an eye on the dog until help arrives but maintain a suitable distance to ensure you don't agitate them, which could cause further distress, making the dog even hotter.
🐾 Gather as much evidence as possible (vehicle details, time and date, photos of the dog in the vehicle).

It is so sad that we still need to put this message out every summer, but it seems that it's just not sinking in. WA - let's keep our beloved pets safe. 🐶☀️

Hi there, my name is Georgina! 🐱👋
I’m a gorgeous, sassy, approximately 12 week old, Domestic Short Hair, ginger kitten.

I came in as a stray when I was young and not in the greatest shape and found the outside world kind of scary! The staff here brought me back to good health and I became best friends with the Clinic Cat Patrick, who is my favourite play mate 💕

I'm going to miss Patty and everyone here so much when I find my furrever home. I’m hoping my new home will have another social, cat friendly cat for me to play with as I LOVE to play. I also love to play with toys and can keep myself entertained. I enjoy the occasional cuddle, usually on my own terms but I’m the most cuddly after I've woken up from a nap 💤

If you think I’m the cat for you, please give the Mirrabooka Vet Team a call on 9440 6060 & enquire about me and whether you’d be a great fit for me! 🏡
My adoption package of $490 includes my microchipping, vaccination and sterilisation 🐾

Can’t wait to meet you! 🩷 ~ Love Georgina 🐱

Starting on the 23rd of April, if your pet is aged 7+ please give us a call 📞 on 9440 6060 to enquire and take advantage of this wellness check at a heavily discounted price!
