Spring is here - and so are the baby birds? Here's how to tell if they need help!

Precocial chicks, like ducks and masked lapwings (plovers), are independent from the start – they can feed themselves and usually don’t need our help.

Altricial chicks, like magpies, parrots, and noisy miners, need parental care until they're ready to leave the nest. If you spot a featherless chick with closed eyes, it may need help reuniting with its parents or nest.

Fledgling altricial birds are learning to fly and likely have watchful parents nearby, so give them space unless they're in danger.

If you are unsure, call WIRES on 1300 094 737 - otherwise, enjoy seeing the new birds settle into the season!

Spring is here once again! 🌸🐦

Read more about what to do if you find a baby bird, thanks to our friends at WIRES.

Remember to only intervene if the bird has little or no feathers, can’t be returned to the nest, or is injured, cold, or lethargic.

Today we celebrated World Veterinary Day with some of our wonderful vets at UVTHS. The theme for this year was 'Veterinarians are Essential Health Workers,' and we wholeheartedly agree.

With their often unseen efforts, veterinarians play a vital role in protecting and enhancing the health and well being of the pets in our communities.

Our veterinarians don't just provide expert care; they also share in celebrating good news with caring pet owners, approach tough conversations with empathy, and contribute to training the next generation of veterinarians.

Thank you to all of our UVTHS veterinarians, and the wider veterinary community, for your contributions to the profession.

Have you ever wanted to learn how to take dental radiographs on cats and dogs? 🦷🐈🐕 As a Primary Care Veterinary Nurse, you will play an integral role in performing best practice dental care at the UVTHS! Nurses are highly involved in all dentals through every step of the procedure from dental radiography, to scaling, polishing, and intra-oral examination. You will also be involved in teaching these skills to Doctor of Veterinary Medicine students as they complete their Primary Care clinical rotation. How cool is that!? Primary Care Nurse Melissa says "I love being involved in all aspects of veterinary dentistry, but my favourite part is taking dental radiographs! It is such a fun skill and I especially love teaching the DVM students. Seeing them master this invaluable skill brings me a great sense of fulfillment, as they will be carrying this skill with them throughout their career. Seeing cats and dogs leave the hospital happy and comfortable after having painful teeth extracted (sometimes only discovered after taking a good radiograph!) is so rewarding!" Please contact us if you would like to learn more about this role! [email protected] OR APPLY NOW! https://jobs.jobvite.com/vetpartners/job/oG75jfwV?fbclid=IwAR2NJgvl3tumcVkQXdbIgpcHNVeL3MDf69jLABsHX7dgxh_68zURQEoSK8Q

Meet Bruce 🤩 Bruce is an 8 year old Domestic Shorthair, who visits our Oncology department for treatment of his Lymphoma. Bruce had started vomiting, so his owner took him to his local vet, Concord Veterinary Hospital who felt a thickened area of intestine during physical examination and recommended an ultrasound. This ultrasound revealed an abdominal mass which was likely to be cancerous so they referred Bruce to our Oncology department for further investigation. Oncology resident, Dr John Blaxill recommended chest radiographs and an abdominal ultrasound with fine needle aspirates to obtain samples of the mass and other organs to check for any evidence of metastasis. From this, Bruce was diagnosed with Stage IV Multicentric Lymphosarcoma involving his spleen and lymph nodes. Bruce was started on a multi-agent chemotherapy protocol and he is tolerating his treatment and doing so well, Bruce will now come in fortnightly rather than weekly. Bruce enjoys the cuddles and scratches he receives during his chemotherapy and continues to be bright and happy. He also has a small wound on his head as result of an abscess from a fight with another cat. We wish Bruce all the best as he completes his chemotherapy ❤️ #uvths #chemotherapy #veterinaryoncology
